Some stories are written in ink. Others are rewritten with a broken heart. Tiffany Yang had spent years creating unforgettable love stories. She knew every trope, every tragic twist, and every secret that made a fictional world come alive. But she never expected to wake up inside one of her own novels. Reborn in the body of Quinn Hearst—the beautiful, wealthy, and notorious villainess destined for a tragic ending—Tiffany knows exactly how the story is supposed to unfold. Quinn will lose everything, the heroine will claim her happy ending, and Adrian Thorne, the cold and dangerously captivating male lead, will never be hers. Determined to escape her character’s fate, Quinn vows to change her ways. No more chasing a man who was never meant to love her. No more playing the villain in a story whose ending has already been written. This time, she will protect her future, uncover the secrets threatening her family’s empire, and become a woman worthy of her own second chance. All she has to do is stay away from Sebastian Vanderbilt. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. The more Quinn steps away from the role she was given, the closer Sebastian comes to the woman she is becoming. Beneath his guarded expression lies a man with wounds of his own, and behind the pages of the original story are secrets that even Tiffany never understood. As scandals threaten to destroy everything she has rebuilt, Quinn must confront the truth about her past, the consequences of her choices, and the possibility that the story she remembers was never the whole truth. Can a villainess rewrite her destiny without losing herself along the way? And if the hero finally falls in love with her, will she have the courage to believe that his heart belongs to the woman she is now—not the character she was meant to be? Because sometimes, the greatest love story begins when you stop trying to be someone else's happy ending. And perhaps the hero was never hers to lose… because this time, she gets to choose how the story ends.
