Ling Kwong, the obedient and composed eldest daughter of a powerful family, has always played by the rules. But after years of sacrificing her dreams and desires for her father's approval, she finds herself trapped in a life that feels increasingly suffocating. When an arranged merger between her family's company and a rival conglomerate is thrust upon her, Ling's carefully structured world begins to unravel. The unexpected involvement of Orm, the ambitious and fierce CEO of the rival company, sparks a rivalry that both women cannot ignore. As Ling battles the chaos within her own mind-prompted by Sirilak, a dark alter ego that surfaces whenever Ling's world feels too constrained-she begins to discover her own strength. Sirilak's influence pushes Ling to stand up for herself, to challenge the path her father set for her, and to seek out her own desires. However, the journey to self-discovery comes with a cost. Ling's struggle for control over her own identity becomes even more complicated when she unexpectedly kisses Orm, drawing both women closer as their rivalry blurs into something more personal.

Planning my cousin's wedding is a piece of cake. Until a stuck up person from my past appears... as an unexpected guest. Lingling Kwong. It was hate at first sight and it still is. It's not because she's a grumpy and stuck up, or because we're polar opposites who bickered our way through summer camp. It's the stinging rejection of a failed first kiss that's haunted me for the past twelve years.
