“Here. The damn washroom.” He muttered under his breath. I frowned as I looked up at him. He was staring at me blankly, a scowl perfectly plastered across his face. His grayish-blue eyes burned with a fierce fire, much like Nat’s. A few loose strands of hair fell over his face, softening little to nothing about him. He was really handsome—too handsome. Like a Greek god molded by the gods themselves. They had no right to make him look this unfairly perfect. I felt my cheeks heating up at the thought but snapped out of it when I saw the look he was giving me. Weird Riley.

Charlotte Morgan, the billion-dollar tech CEO from Beverly Hills, has never believed in love—only results. She's poised to transform downtown Los Angeles with her urban redevelopment empire, one neighborhood at a time. Mateo Durand, a drifting street artist from Marseille, believes love is the only thing worth building. He lives in a converted gallery in Santa Monica, where memory clings to crumbling walls. When Charlotte’s project threatens to evict him and erase the past, sparks fly. She proposes a wager: “Live a day in my world, and let me live a day in yours.” What starts as a game between a woman who controls everything and a man who owns nothing becomes a slow-burning romance—fragile, passionate, and doomed by the very world they inhabit. Can two people on opposite ends of the city—and life—ever meet in the middle?

Inteligente, frívolo, descarado, narcisista incluso cuando le sale un grano en la nariz, Charles Highway, el narrador y protagonista de esta excelente y divertidísima novela, es un joven que, a falta de ritos de paso institucionalizados, se inventa uno por su cuenta y riesgo. Cuando le falta poco para cumplir los veinte años se da cuenta de que todavía no se ha acostado con ninguna mujer, aunque lo haya hecho con montones de chicas de su edad, y decide que su obligación ineludible es tener esa experiencia a modo de despedida de la inmadurez. Pero Charles Highway, niño prodigio y neurótico precoz, es un joven con altas aspiraciones literarias, y lo que pudo haber sido un ligue más se le convierte en una complicadísima operación autobiográfica y autoanalítica que da, como resultado final, este «Libro de Rachel». Un libro en el que tienen cabida desde la revolución sexual, los años setenta y el «rock» hasta el conflicto de generaciones y el propio mito de la juventud, todo ello observado desde un punto de vista satírico y escéptico. A esta actitud rabiosamente moderna se unen una prodigiosa naturalidad y un gran talento literarios, que convirtieron la publicación inglesa de esta obra en un auténtico acontecimiento.

Sophie Wexler transmigrated into a novel about The Galaxy, becoming the vicious, F-rank Healer-class cannon fodder. The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy. Sophie was content, thinking, "This time, I must have finally escaped the original owner's fate, right?" But what do you know, the man I've been doting on and supporting is actually the Imperial Marshal?! --- One day, Yancey Forrest came home to find that the boisterous person who was always claiming to be good to him was gone. His eyes darkened. Provoke me and then think you can leave? After catching her, Yancey traced his fingertips along Sophie's neck, smiling gently. "Why run?" Sophie trembled. "You... you're the Imperial Marshal?" His identity exposed, Yancey Forrest took her hand and slowly placed it on his own neck ring. "You know I won't kill you, don't you?"
