Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy historical romance set outside Western settings, especially Tang Dynasty China with authentic cultural details.
  • You like shorter stories that pack genuine tension and chemistry into tight page counts.
  • You're drawn to characters trading power dynamics and desire, where both parties have something real at stake.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need full-length novels to feel satisfied. At 71 pages, this is a novella that sets up a world rather than wrapping everything neat.
  • You prefer romance without explicit content. The poems and artwork here aren't filler.
  • You want straightforward heists. This one pivots halfway when attraction rewrites the whole plan.

About this book

This novella is set in Tang Dynasty China in 823 A.D. and introduces the North Hamlet, a pleasure quarter that serves as the setting for The Lotus Palace. Musician Jia seeks a valuable book of poems by a famous courtesan, believing it will allow her to buy her freedom. She suspects Luo Cheng has taken it and attempts to steal the book from him, but the attempt fails. Unexpectedly, the tall and powerful scholar offers to help her search for it instead. When they finally locate the book and discover the poems and artwork within, Jia's desire for freedom transforms into a different kind of longing—one directed toward Cheng.
