Blurb / Synopsis:
Bribed by her stubborn and terribly conceited self, Imani Ane agrees to be the personal maid of a creep whose family's a little too perfect.To the undeniably humble Ane, all's generally fine as she struts about the wealthy Campbell's residence and tends to its needy, frustratingly beautiful twig of a Master, but such mercy's bound to not last long── romance is in the air with little to no patience, and so are the demons hiding in plain sight, always ready to pounce on any soul that disturbs them, even if they're Ane's own.
Prepare yourselves for a crazy, unforgettable mash-up of humor, psycho-thrill, and drama.

If you're reading this, thank you. I want to express to you how grateful I am. This is the retelling of a story I've had in my mind for years, and it's also the first carefully(?) composed novel that I have ever written. However, this is still a draft + English is my second language. If there are any typos, grammar issues, and/or if there's any constructive feedback that you would like to provide, feel free to comment about them throughout the novel, as well as your thoughts in general. I would love to hear from you!This novel marks the beginning of my journey as a committed creator. I genuinely hope that you'll enjoy this novel of mine.
I dedicate it to my past self, who struggled with a lot of things and somehow managed to pave the way for the present me to try to sort them out. I also dedicate it to the teachers/professors in my school years that nurtured the desire within me to write, and to you, for giving my novel a chance. <3
