The Grand Courting Season has always been one of the greatest traditions held once a year since the unification of the Solstan Kingdoms. Most importantly, it was an event that granted the opportunity for common folks to stay at the great emperor's palace and enter the most monumental marriage market hosted solely for those in the highest of rankings. Being chosen meant those who were selected are welcomed into a plush life with the golden chance of marrying into the two highest class, the royals and the elites. Once a Chosen, life will never be as it was. Rue never dared to hope that someone like her could even have a chance at participating in an event as glorious as this one. It had always been a far reach for her, a dream never meant to be realized. She knew there was much at stake by putting herself out there. However, as time passed on, she slowly realized that there was so much more to risk than simply her family's reputation. Unrest looms in the shadows and as children of the high courts begin to disappear, many start to question who can truly be trusted?

In a palace of whispers, hidden agendas, and family intrigues, every glance, every touch, and every unspoken word becomes a battlefield of desire and restraint. As past wounds resurface, old secrets threaten to destroy them, and everyone around them seems to have an opinion about what love should be, can two hearts that have known pain and sacrifice find their way to each other? Or will the shadows of their pasts keep them apart forever? A story of slow-burning romance, royal intrigue, hidden identities, and love that fights its way through every obstacle.
