In a world where women rule and men kneel, one princess learns that love might be her greatest weapon—or her fatal weakness. Nineteen-year-old Ling Long’s crown rests on a knife’s edge. Heiress to the matriarchal Phoenix Kingdom, she wakes from an assassination attempt with no memory of her role in the deadly game of thrones. Amidst palace spies and poisoned daggers, three men stake claims to her fractured heart: 🌹 The Rebel Knight – Her stoic bodyguard who would die for her… and kill to keep his secrets. 🌹 The Poetic Strategist – A gentle scholar whose celestial beauty conceals ruthless ambition. 🌹 The Wounded Assassin – An enemy agent torn between duty and forbidden desire. As Ling Long’s memories resurface, she uncovers a Regent’s conspiracy to usurp her throne. Now, she must wield her paradox—love versus sovereignty—to reclaim her crown… but can a queen truly have both? Perfect for fans of "The Selection" and "The Bridge Kingdom", this epic blends sizzling slow-burn romance with the deadly elegance of Chinese court drama.
