She was born breathtakingly beautiful, brilliant and exceptionally gifted, yet all she wanted was to keep her brilliance hidden, find a safe place to call home and someone who would truly love her, and live a carefree life. Sadly, she was born into an age of war and strife, forced to marry him for the sake of peace and forced to cast off her fragile disguise.
He was stunningly handsome, peerless in both courage and intelligence, yet rumors painted him as arrogant, debauched, ill-mannered, brutish, ruthless, and bloodthirsty. Five years ago, he shot his elder brother to seize military power. Three years ago, he drew his sword against his father and took a famed courtesan as his wife. His life seemed to be one long, carefree round of wine and women.
At their first meeting, they matched wits and courage. As they grew to know each other, they weathered storms side by side. When they fell in love, they joined forces to fight their enemies.
Their love, their passion, would ultimately become a sacrifice to the flames of war...
The plot is fascinating, I want to watch it
