We enter this story in a setting of a fallen kingdom. In this story we meet a girl named Lan, who once upon a time had a different name. Lan just happens to have a strange mark that her mother left on her before dying. However, the one
strange thing about this mark is that only she can see it until a random boy saves her life. This boy, Zen will help can discover her true self.

I want to thank Netgalley for granting me this book in exchange for a honest review lately I've been enjoying books that draw from mythology and folklore from China. This book was crafted well and definitely hooks you, I really enjoyed the writing style and I have to say I like the writing and storyline more than Blood Heir. I did find the pacing of this story to be slow at times, I do want 
to see more chemistry between Lan and Zen. Overall I found this story to be enjoyable.
