Blurb One: The World. One is the last surviving heir of a disgraced crown prince, who has tasted every kindness and cruelty life has to offer. One is the nephew of a treacherous minister, who has seen through the masks people wear. One is a commandery princess as precious as a golden branch, who has weathered all the ups and downs of life.
There is a world that some people long for and others despise.
Blurb Two: A Sweet Romance. She is a commandery princess as precious as a golden branch: proud but not overbearing, with a clear sense of right and wrong. She loathes one person so deeply that she avoids him like the plague. But the person she hates doggedly persists, following her and doing everything he can to win her favor.
“I find it hard to trust people.”
“I know.”
“When I hate someone, I really hate them. No matter what they say, I won’t believe them.”
“Heh... I know.”
So he works to change her mind about him, then slowly earn her trust.
