Leansei learned early that life takes more than it gives. He worked himself to the bone to pay for tuition and keep his family afloat, never with time to enjoy his youth, and never with hope that he ever would.

Then, on a night when it rained for the first time in years, Lemous City offered him a chance or face a miserable fate. Lemous is a city caught between the semi-rural and the urban, built on hierarchy and legacy, where those with status live above and the rest are left to survive below.

That night, Leansei was given a one-night job. High class. High paying. The kind of work he was never meant to enter.


It should have been the start of something better. It was but not for him. Instead, it was the end of him. When he wakes, he is no longer Leansei. He is Kean—in a different face, a different body, and a different life entirely. And with Kean’s life comes danger he does not understand.

he meet xerchin for the second time around. Cold, arrogant, and infuriating. The same guy he met once before on a cruise ship, and thought he would never see again.

Leansei did not know that Kean’s life was as broken as his own.
He did not know how much danger came with the name. He is hunted, hated, and caught in a web of power, lies, and memory that is not his own.

To survive, he must navigate a world of lies, power, and memory that was never his.
To live, he must decide if a borrowed life is worth the price of being loved.
To be free, he must choose his own path, or surrender to what lies beneath him.

In a world built on control and sacrifice, love is the most dangerous choice of all.

Will he be willing to leave the body behind, or remain in a life that was never his to begin with?
