L'article d'Eliza sur son petit ami est tellement beau ...
Il donne envie de croire en l'amour !
En une nuit, la vie d'Eliza est chamboulée : l'article qu'elle a écrit sur son merveilleux petit ami pour le blog du lycée a fait le buzz et bouleversé des milliers de lecteurs. Grâce à cette popularité, elle décroche un stage dans le magazine de ses rêves !
Mais alors que tout le monde veut en savoir plus sur le fameux garçon, la jeune fille s'affole : elle a tout inventé dans son article, le garçon dont elle parle... n'existe pas.
Acculée, elle passe un marché avec le sublime Caz Song, un élève de son lycée, par ailleurs acteur montant de dramas chinois, qui accepte de se faire passer pour son petit ami. Ils multiplient les pseudo-rendez-vous amoureux, et Eliza, qui découvre la sensibilité et la prévenance de Caz, tombe peu à peu sous son charme...

''Exquisite and devastating. It won''t fail to move you'' - Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun
Inspired by the legend of Xishi, one of the famous Four Beauties of Ancient China, A Song to Drown Rivers is an epic historical fantasy about womanhood, war, sacrifice and love against all odds as the fate of two kingdoms hangs in a delicate balance.
Her beauty hides a deadly purpose.
Xishi''s beauty is seen as a blessing to the villagers of Yue-convinced that the best fate for a girl is to marry well and support her family. When Xishi draws the attention of the famous young military advisor, Fanli, he presents her with a rare opportunity: to use her beauty as a weapon. One that could topple the rival neighboring kingdom of Wu, improve the lives of her people, and avenge her sister''s murder. All she has to do is infiltrate the enemy palace as a spy, seduce their immoral king, and weaken them from within.
Trained by Fanli in everything from classical instruments to concealing emotion, Xishi hones her beauty into the perfect blade. But she knows Fanli can see through every deception she masters, the attraction between them burning away any falsehoods.
Once inside the enemy palace, Xishi finds herself under the hungry gaze of the king''s advisors while the king himself shows her great affection. Despite his gentleness, a brutality lurks and Xishi knows she can never let her guard down. But the higher Xishi climbs in the Wu court, the farther she and Fanli have to fall-and if she is unmasked as a traitor, she will bring both kingdoms down.
