Lyra Bellrose is a genius physician who trusts in hard facts and crude remedies, not courtly nonsense.
When she is forced to become the Crown Private Physician, her simple life explodes into a chaotic royal mandate: she must cure the kingdom's three most problematic men.
Lyra's pragmatic mind is stretched to the breaking point as she battles the ailments and the egos:
Lord Cassian, the arrogant Duke, whose chronic rash requires a painful dose of discipline.
Prince Everard, the stoic Foreign Royal, whose migraines mask a lethal political vulnerability.
Prince Alaric, the hidden, fragile Crown Prince, who melts Lyra's clinical shell with his gentle, ethereal beauty.
In a palace where every diagnosis is a political threat and every prescription is defiance, Lyra must use her exceptional skill to stabilize the kingdom. But the bitter tea of royal love is the one chronic affliction she never prepared to cure.

One Way: Find the Destiny
One second that is all it takes to know something is wrong. It is that one second that the heart stops beating and the mind goes into a state of panic! What happened, you might ask? Well how do I explain this? The best and simplest answer would be that I don't know what happened at all. All I was doing was studying for an exam and here I was in a forest on the next one! Of course I was familiar with the term of transmigration but did this make sense? NO! So what the hell is going on? Who am I? Where am I?! And to make matters worse, I just found myself in a damn world filled with monsters, beasts, magic and demons. This was not what I was expecting to happen at all! This was all a nightmare and to top it off inside a book, one that I hated as well..... Screw IT and FATE! No one is telling me what to do! I will change the story line no matter what or everyone is doomed to die! A/N: Please excuse any mistake I am making in this. Feel free to correct me if you want as well.
