Life After Death by Ice Cream

Nothing ruins your day like getting hit by an ice cream truck. For Amara Lyselle, a 24-year-old history professor tired of her routine, life comes to an abrupt end just when she decides to indulge in some luxury chocolate. But instead of a peaceful afterlife, Amara finds herself thrust into an alternate world that looks a lot like hers except she’s now one of the rivals vying for the affection of the world’s dashing hero. As if being dead and reincarnated as a romantic antagonist wasn’t bad enough, she has to navigate a confusing new reality with the help of an annoying "system" that seems to have a personality of its own. The good news? She has a second chance at life. The bad news? She has no idea how to survive in this strange world, avoid falling into ridiculous romantic drama, or even get back to her old life if that’s even possible.

"And you're lucky I tolerate interruptions," Amara replied, her smirk returning. "But don't get used to it. Next time, we're putting up a sign: Do Not Disturb CEO in Progress."

[Wow, what a bold proclamation for someone who got startled by an IT guy with a clipboard,] the System chimed in, its tone dripping with mockery.

Amara's eye twitched. Nobody asked you.

[Really? Because I was under the impression you enjoyed my sharp wit and invaluable insights.]

Invaluable? The only thing you're good for is ruining perfectly good moments, Amara shot back mentally.

Elara's laugh, clear and melodic, interrupted the sparring match. "You're arguing with it again, aren't you?"

Amara groaned, running a hand down her face. "It doesn't know when to shut up. It's like having an obnoxious parrot stuck in my head."

[I'm deeply wounded. I'm more of an eagle, soaring above your petty human squabbles.]
