In a city where loyalty is currency and peace is always negotiable, one woman becomes the face of a nation she's never been allowed to claim.
Lynn has spent her life in the gray zones of empire-an Earth Kingdom refugee raised in a Fire Nation colony, too foreign for one world, too familiar for the other. When a diplomatic marriage contract ties her fate to Fire Lord Zuko, what starts as a political performance threatens to expose everything they both fear: their doubts, their hopes, and their inconvenient longing for something real.
But empires don't change for love-and neither do their ghosts.
As Yu Dao becomes the powder keg of a fragile peace, Lynn must decide whether she'll play the role she's been handed... or rewrite the story entirely.
A sweeping political romance set in the aftermath of war, The Cinderella Contract is about identity, legacy, and love forged in fire.
