Excerpt Aristia could not help but stare at the platinum blonde a few steps in front of her. She seemed to sparkle with a glow that drew people in around her. Something that only happened to the main character of a novel. [Is that stupid book sure I'm the female lead?] She thought, her jaws almost going slack. At this point, she was sure she was deluding herself— or the book was deluding her. She didn't know why, but she already disliked the girl. [This is definitely not jealousy.] She rubbed her brows, watching how the innocent, naive looking girl exuding female lead aura was being flocked around already by others despite her low status. "Fuck, I'm really in deep shit!" — Aristia Andrews had just returned home from work and prepared to go to sleep, when she was given a novel. Nothing strange about that though, huh? But just after she had completed the novel, she woke up to find herself tossed into a whole new world. Taken from her world and the life she deemed perfect, and tossed into a not-so-ideal world. She becomes Aristia Amberale, the beloved five year old daughter of the only Grand Duke and Imperial Prince of the kingdom, said to be loved by all in the kingdom. Now part of royalty, she has to get accustomed to living in a backward world of Kings and Queens, Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Viscounts and Barons. Just the titles and hierarchy were enough to make her smart head spin. With beautiful and loving parents and relatives, a hopelessly adorable younger brother who just might be a sis-con, loyal-to-the-death servants, and a smart brain, join Aristia as she enjoys eating and making delicious cuisines, forms unique friendships, and creates successful businesses. However, she finds all is not as she thought it was; there just might be something bigger than she expected that the book did not reveal— something that could turn her well balanced world upside down. First of all, she discovers that her character is actually hated and not loved. Then, she finds out she's not really the female lead. Now... she has a lot of mysteries surrounding her to unfold, secrets to uncover, and a sad fate to avoid. But... "Hey, why are you looking at me with those eyes? The female lead is over there." "You, stop following me around, will you? You're supposed to hate me!" "Stay back, all of you! What's wrong with you?!" But most importantly... why are these obviously important characters not leaving her alone? And why was the cold, unloving soon-to-be Emperor of that powerful Empire paying attention to her instead of the female lead? It wasn't supposed to be like this...

Plot Synopsis for Deadly When Desired My name is Rhea Morgan. Born into privilege, but hardened by betrayal, I was never meant to be soft. Behind the glossy gates of the Morgan dynasty lies a brutal truth, one that forced me to trade innocence for instinct. The story begins with my return to New York, summoned home after years in hiding, only to discover my father once feared, now murdered. His death wasn’t random. It was calculated. And all fingers point inward to the family, to the empire he built, and to the man who once promised to protect me. As I investigate the truth behind my father's death, I’m dragged into a dangerous power struggle between two brutal crime syndicates: the Morgans, whose name I bear, and the Valencis, led by the cold, enigmatic Silas Valenci. He is ruthless, intelligent, and worse, infuriatingly attractive. Our chemistry is deadly. Our history is darker. The development unfolds as I am forced into an uneasy alliance with Silas. But trust doesn’t come easy not when I’m also being hunted by someone inside my own bloodline. Layers of deception begin to unravel. I find secrets buried in walls, money laundered through charity, and lies woven into lullabies I was once sung as a child. Meanwhile, a second figure emerges Elias Kaine, my former flame turned federal agent, now assigned to destroy the very empire my family built. Torn between Silas' dangerous obsession and Elias’ wounded loyalty, I find myself at the center of a toxic triangle that could either save or destroy me. The climax reaches its peak when I uncover the real killer, someone I least expected. The betrayal cuts deep, forcing me to choose between vengeance and survival. A war ignites. Blood spills. I become the storm I was running from. The story doesn’t promise peace, but it demands transformation. Rhea is no longer the girl who fled. She is the woman who fights.

Aurora Waters was overwhelmed with despair when she faced the truth about her family. She had been born into a family of villains. Even worse, her family had an unhealthy obsession with faking their identities. They took “Fake it till you make it” so seriously that it usually ended with them getting killed! Her oldest brother pretended to be a CEO just to mess with the female lead, but that backfired when the male lead showed up and threw him out. Her second brother? He was an obsessive lover who pretended to be a wealthy second-generation heir—until the real heir ended his life. Her third sister? She faked being an heiress to manipulate the second male lead but ended up being killed by him. Her fourth sister? She faked an illness to attract the third male lead’s attention, only to die from a real one. Her mother? She put on a facade of being a kind and loving mom but ultimately met her end at the hands of the male lead. Her father? He pretended to be a powerful tycoon but lost his job and was drowned by the second male lead. And Aurora? She planned to impersonate the daughter of the richest man alive, but if things went the way they always did in her family, she’d probably meet her end by accidentally falling down the stairs. However, there was one glimmer of hope in this nightmare: she had a 100% rebate system that rewarded her for spending money on her family! [Beep! You bought an eraser worth 1 dollar for your eldest brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] [Beep! You bought a candy worth 1 dollar for your second brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] Aurora’s eyes sparkled as an idea took shape. She began spending on her family like crazy to rake in cash. [Beep! You gave a bun worth 20 dollars to your childhood crush! 100 dollars has been credited to your bank account!] Aurora: …! That’s walking money! What Aurora didn't expect, though, was that she would end up becoming one of the technology big shots herself, in the end.

In a world identical to ours, an inexplicable phenomenon shakes the foundations of society. And through the eyes of four protagonists whose lives intertwine, we follow the devastating and transformative consequences of this unprecedented biological phenomenon: Leandro, a freelance designer in Salvador, finds himself torn between balance and direct action. Lorena, a psychology student and Leandro's girlfriend, transforms her physical pain into fuel for resistance. Eliane, an obstetric nurse in Rio de Janeiro and Leandro's sister, combines scientific knowledge and traditional wisdom. Fábio, an ambitious businessman in São Paulo, sees the crisis as an opportunity for profit. As society fragments between those who seek to help and those who exploit collective vulnerability, our protagonists discover that it is through crises that the best and worst in people emerge. "Red Synchrony" is a work of science fiction that delves into the most pressing issues of our time: gender inequality, solidarity versus individualism, the role of technology in humanitarian crises, and the limits of resistance. A visceral narrative about shared pain, emerging power, and the inevitable transformation that comes when the most intimate becomes universal.
