A Throne Built on Ashes

In her past life, Sophia Voss was stripped of her identity as the legitimate daughter on the eve of her coronation as empress — and beaten to death. Reborn to the moment before she was branded a bastard, she turned her back on the man who had wronged her and chose instead to ally herself with Prince Silas, who had secretly loved her all along. When the time came, she used the unrest as a pretext to depose the emperor and place Prince Silas on the throne. In the end, she rose from the ashes — a legend, an empress, and the envy of all who once looked down on her.
