Eboni Ames grew up in The Quarters-a tiny, but historic, Black settlement just outside Whitman, Arizona. Her classmate, Ahn Ji-Yeong, grew up in the only Asian family in Whitman and harbored a secret crush on Eboni. Eventually, they both left their hometown to follow their dreams. Eboni's vision of a being a celebrity chef faded in California, where the foodie scene was flooded with thousands of other wannabes, and her family soul food recipes weren't enough to catch the eye of foodies seeking flashier fare. Meanwhile, AJ became a K-pop and K-drama megastar, sitting at the top of the Billboard charts and the Netflix top ten. When Eboni is forced to return home and take a day job while trying to get her soul food catering business off the ground, she finds that AJ has come home too. The bright spotlights of the K-pop industry cast a very dark shadow, and AJ needs a break. Still carrying a torch for his childhood love, AJ offers his Korean fried chicken recipe to help draw attention to Eboni's business. As their lives become more and more intertwined, the heat turns up outside of the kitchen as well. But when their pasts come back to haunt them, Eboni and AJ will have to make tough choices about what they are and want to be to each other.

In her dreams, Li Meiyu always sees him-the man with haunting eyes who whispers her name like a curse. In the daylight, she is a brilliant journalist in modern-day Shanghai, investigating a string of disappearances that mirror an old folktale about a vengeful ghost bride. But when a near-fatal accident sends her soul spiraling into the past, she awakens in the body of a woman from the Qing Dynasty-a woman who was once deeply loved and brutally betrayed. Caught in a web of fate and deception, Meiyu is thrust into a dangerous love story spanning lifetimes. In her past incarnation, she was the sheltered daughter of a noble family, promised to a man who adored her beyond reason-a man willing to carve his name into history through blood and sacrifice to keep her by his side. But their love was doomed, twisted by obsession and dark rituals. Now, in the past, Meiyu must unravel the truth before history repeats itself. The man who once loved her in life-and hunted her in death-is still waiting. And in every timeline, his promise remains the same: "Even time cannot keep you from me." But does she belong to him... or is she meant to escape him?
