1.
Ming Yuan has a secret she keeps buried deep.
She's fallen for Jiang Chengyao.
The untouchable heir to the Jiang family, and her future brother-in-law.
Ming Yuan understands better than anyone how vast the gulf between them is.
She knows that reaching for the moon is wishful thinking, and forcing it will only end in bitterness.
What if she insists anyway?
2.
Later, everyone knows that Ming Yuan is madly in love with the young master of the Jiang family.
Even Jiang Chengyao believes it.
Until one day, he finds a yellowed sketch in a locked drawer of Ming Yuan's.
It looks like him, but the name on it isn't his.
Only then does Jiang Chengyao realize just how terribly wrong he was.
Reader Tips:
1. Angsty, bittersweet romance / candy wrapped in glass
2. Both leads are each other's first and only, happy ending
3. The heroine is a little unhinged, and the hero is no less so. If that's not your thing, read at your own risk.
