Reborn after a lethal betrayal by her scoundrel husband, Lydia Sterling hires a 'poor scholar' to secure an heir and seize the Zane family fortune. Little does she know, the scholar is actually the reclusive 'Living King of Hell,' the Prince Regent himself, who has set his sights on her long ago. As she uses her new consort to systematically crush her ungrateful relatives and devour their fortunes, Lydia finds her contractual romance turning into a dangerous, devoted obsession. It is an ancient Asian rom-com of secret identities and forbidden power where the Regent's wife always gets her way. Rebirth has never been so royal.
