Two best friends. Two love stories. One unforgettable ride. Rain’s running from heartbreak. Harper’s running headfirst into it. One’s swearing off love, the other’s daring it to try her. Every five chapters, the spotlight shifts—first Rain’s messy, laugh-out-loud journey, then Harper’s fiery, no-nonsense approach to romance. Two arcs, two wildly different paths… but somehow, fate keeps pulling them (and the irresistible men they should avoid) right back in. 💖 Who will fall first? 💖 Who will fall harder? Grab your seat – this is one love story that plays out in stereo. Harper didn’t sign up to play Cupid— but for ten times her salary? She’ll find her boss, Eros Lancaster, a bride in sixty days. The problem? Eros doesn’t do love. Wealth, charm, and a lineup of flings—he has it all. But with his company’s future on the line, his sister’s demanding he settle down. Just as Harper starts scheming, Eros flips the script—offering her the role of his contract wife. Now, Harper’s stuck between his sister’s deal and his tempting proposal. What could possibly go wrong? ~~~ One night turns into a morning-after she can’t stop thinking about. And when fate throws him back in her path—again and again—Rain starts to wonder if this wasn’t just some random hookup. Maybe, just maybe, the universe isn’t done with them yet. Love wasn’t on Rain’s to-do list… but it might have just RSVP’d anyway.

After transferring into an elite high school, I was bullied. However, it was not my classmates that bullied me; it was every object in the school. The private bathroom in my dorm only ran icy cold water when I showered, forcing me to trek to the public bathhouse in the dead of winter. When I begged the dorm supervisor, Mrs. Linda Mercer, to submit a repair request, she rolled her eyes and said, "The students who lived here last year never had this problem. Why is it suddenly broken when you move in?" My student ID card never worked in the library or the cafeteria. Every single time, it failed to scan, and I had to register manually. The multimedia equipment in the classroom froze whenever I touched it, dragging down the entire class schedule. I went to the teachers for help. They frowned and complained instead. "Everyone else can use it just fine. Why does it only malfunction when you do?" Even my deskmate rolled her eyes and mocked me. "You put on such a show every day. You are the only one who's so special. Are we supposed to stop studying just for you?" One strange incident after another completely isolated me at my new school. I cried and begged my parents to let me transfer again. They said, "The college entrance exam is right around the corner. Stop making trouble. Just endure it, and it will pass." I listened. I decided to grit my teeth and push through. Then, on the day of the college entrance exam, the security gate malfunctioned and started leaking electricity. Everyone else was fine. I was the only one who was electrocuted to death on the spot. Until the moment I died, I could not understand why the entire school seemed to be pushing me out. I was just a newly transferred student who had no grudges with anyone. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day I arrived to register at the new school.
