When Liana receives the news that her beloved husband, Prince Amron, was killed, she uses her half-divine blood to strike a bargain: the gods will send her back into the past and give her three days to make Amron fall in love with her. If she succeeds, she gets him back. If she fails, she loses all divine powers and will never see him again.

Seventeen years earlier, Melia is forced by her controlling father to marry Prince Amron on the brink of the biggest peace treaty in history. But Melia has her own plans: to destroy the treaty and carve a new future with her love interest, Ferisa. She helps Ferisa attack the king, provoking a conflict which threatens to burn the kingdom to ashes.

Liana lands in the past just as the treaty is signed, and discovers that Amron’s first wife, Melia, is a traitor. Worse, Liana realises the gods have tricked her: she cannot win Amron and return with him to her timeline, because if Amron does not stop the war in the past, there will be no future for any of them. To prevent the war, Liana must help Amron win Melia’s trust even if that means losing him when her three days are up, and Melia must come clean even if her betrayal might be unforgivable – and its payback lethal.
