內容簡介
願以此蛇身,成就一世愛戀
改寫中國經典神話《白蛇傳》
 
當許仙還小的時候,母后被一隻白蛇咬傷並染上日漸惡化的蛇毒,據說唯有奪取白蛇身上的靈珠並服下,才能化解這無藥可醫的病症。
 
成年後,為拯救遭蛇毒侵害、奄奄一息的母親,王子許仙聽從神諭的指示來到長樂市,尋找白蛇的蹤跡,並決定要殺掉白蛇永絕後患。
 
貞是一隻修練千年的白蛇,終能吞下靈珠得以化為人形,他選擇低調的在市井生活,擔任馬伕的工作,卻在遇見許仙後全亂了調。
 
許仙一眼就對這個相貌秀麗、氣質出眾的少年印象深刻,他的一舉一動飄然若仙,有種難以言喻的魅力。但他是王子,且肩負母后的性命安危大任,不該浪費時間於私情,然而內心的聲音騙不了人,在他察覺自己的感情後,便深深地愛上了貞。
 
貞本不該與人類有過多交集,更遑論愛情,但當許仙款款傾訴真心,貞知道自己再也無法迴避他熱烈且真摯的情感。當貞知道,自己就是許仙一直在尋找的白蛇,為了守護這份愛,他只能選擇小心翼翼地將秘密深埋於心,但當命運與真相被迫揭開,他們必須要做出做出最沉痛的抉擇...
 
 
A snake spirit transforms into a boy and must hide his true identity after falling for a headstrong prince in this lush, romantic retelling of the traditional Chinese folktale.

When Prince Xian was a boy, a white snake bit his mother and condemned her to a slow, painful death. The only known cure is an antidote created from the rare white snake itself. Desperate and determined, Xian is determined to capture one for himself and cure his mother.

Soon, Xian encounters an enigmatic but beautiful stable boy named Zhen, and the two are immediately drawn to each other. But Zhen might just be the human embodiment of the white snake Xian is hunting. And as their feelings grow deeper, will the truth about Zhen’s identity tear them apart?


''Deeply romantic and utterly captivating ...'' - Sarah Underwood, New York Times-bestselling author of Lies We Sing to the Sea
