Imagine living in a world where every god is real-and your worth is decided by which one claims you.
In Lyra Nymphaea's world, devotion determines everything: your career, your marriage, your place in society. Without a god, you are nothing.
And Lyra has been denied by them all.
Rejected again and again, she drifts through a life that won't hold her-unstable work, fractured friendships, a reputation no one wants near. Desperate for belonging, she applies to the last god willing to consider her... and is denied once more.
But the rejection isn't a mistake.
It's a sentence.
Because Lyra was never meant to serve a god.
She is meant to become one.
And as two powerful gods begin to pursue her-one offering passion, the other offering truth-Lyra must decide:
Will she choose a god...
or will she rewrite the heavens themselves?
