A "Cinderella"-inspired slow-burn historical romance with a paranormal twist set in Taisho-era
Japan! A browbeaten and mistreated daughter is cast out of her home and sent to audition as a
bridal candidate for the heir to one of the most powerful families in the land… Considered
nigh worthless for having failed to inherit the superhuman powers of the bloodlines into which
she was born Miyo Saimori lives her days unwanted and unloved. Her stepmother and very own
father have little time or affection for her and Miyo must suffer being treated as a servant
by her half sister who unlike Miyo is blessed with the unusual powers of their blood.
Ultimately seen as nothing more than a nuisance and a drain on the family wealth Miyo is
packed off to the Kudo house as a bridal candidate for its heir Kiyoka Kudo. Whispers abound
about the Kudo clan the most powerful in all the land but will the allegedly cold and cruel
house into which Miyo aims to marry prove much warmer than the family she left behind?
