She read *The Saintess of Ardenhal* to the very end. Then she woke up inside it, as Lady Rosalind Valcourt: wine-red hair, four rings of fire, engaged to a Crown Prince who despises her, and scheduled to be executed in the Great Hall on Founding Day. Above every face she meets floats a number. It is not affection. It is hostility.

She knows every ball, every scandal, every line the heroine says. She also knows one throwaway sentence from the novel: an F-class boy named Theo Marlowe dies at the Hunting Festival taking an arrow meant for the Saintess. But this year the boy her house sponsors keeps surviving things he should not, and the story is already bending. One Academy year. One execution date. Refuse it.

Your goal: Survive to the end of the Academy year without being dumped, framed or executed on Founding Day. Lower the hostility of the people who matter, win back a family that froze when her mother died, and find out who is writing the letters in her hand.
