elle, a descendant of the chinese god of medicine, is employed as a magical calligrapher (which is way below her qualifications, but necessary so that her murderous younger brother doesn’t find her). but she still likes to challenge herself, specifically through providing her client and crush, luc, with high-powered glyphs.
while the magic system was unique and interesting, some aspects of it confused me. i wish this was explored a bit more in-depth so i could have a deeper understanding of this aspect of the story.
the main focus of this book was romance, though. i thought that the romance was nice, but it didn’t captivate me as much as i was hoping it would.
