INK AND BLOOD LOTUS

Description: In the rain-soaked streets of Shanghai, power and danger rule the night. Li Xian, a ruthless and cold heir to a vast criminal and business empire, thrives on control and fear—until a girl he never knew existed appears and challenges everything he believes about loyalty, family, and desire. Mei Lin is a survivor. An orphan who has learned to trust no one, she lives quietly in Hangzhou—until she is suddenly thrust into a gilded cage at the hands of a man who considers her a threat, a bargaining chip, and a secret she cannot escape. Forced to confront the legacy of a father who abandoned her, she vows to resist the man who exudes danger and command. But Li Xian is unlike anyone she’s ever faced. He is relentless. Merciless. Darkly magnetic. As hatred and defiance collide, the line between enemies and lovers begins to blur. In a world of power, betrayal, and secrets, can two hearts hardened by pain survive without breaking? Or will desire and trust demand a price neither is willing to pay? Ink & Blood Lotus is a slow-burning, dark romance of enemies-to-lovers intensity, where passion, obsession, and secrets threaten to consume both the hunter and the hunted—before love becomes the only weapon they cannot resist.
