The Maiden Wars
Tokyo trauma surgeon Dr. Akiko Takahashi had it all-until one night shattered everything. Betrayed by the two people she trusted most-her boyfriend and her own sister Mika. Sabotaged by her brilliant, venomous hospital rival, Dr. Sayo Hinamura. Then killed in a car crash that felt less like fate...and more like a setup. But death was only the beginning. She wakes in another life-as Lady Kiyomi no Tsukihara, a disgraced noblewoman whispered to be a courtesan, in a Japan-like empire where seven women must compete for the hand of a cold, calculating king. The game is ancient. Ruthless. Unforgiving. They call it the Maiden Wars. The prize? A crown... or a coffin. Now trapped in a palace of masks and mirrors, Kiyomi must survive rival maidens with deadly secrets, schemes spun by kings and dowagers, and the chilling indifference of King Kaito Tsukimura-a man as beautiful as he is brutal, who seems to recognize her in ways he shouldn't. As visions of her past life begin bleeding into this world, a haunting truth emerges: Her death wasn't random. Her rebirth wasn't fate. Someone wanted her gone. And someone wants her broken. Was it Sayo, jealous of her skill? Mika, drunk on envy? Or a power beyond both worlds? But Akiko didn't fight to save lives just to lose her own. This time, she'll win. Even if it means turning the Maiden Wars into a war of her own.
