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.

Aside from being a typical mundane and boring adult, she had nothing going for her. Except for her vast collection of horror novels. I never believed in transmigration or those crappy stories of clichè reincarnations where girls wake up in a different body of a noble beauty and get engaged to sissy princes and be a target of affection of their own royal harems. Oh yuck. There are even stories of villainesses who turn the table around and get their own happily ever afters! Ewww! "Ah," I would think. "If I were to be transmigrated, let it be inside a Junji Ito comic so that I may at least live my life in fear and thrill. Maybe I'd be the new Tomie or something hekhekhek." But what in the world was this?! A daughter of a noble family? Fluffy dresses? Fancy tea parties? A flock of bishounens and bishoujos everywhere? My eyeeeeesss! Everyone is shining! That's it! Let me turn the tables this time! No romance or stupid moe stuff! I shall rule over this land and spread terror to everyon- Wait! Why are you getting nearer? Stop! Leave me alone, you handsome bishounen! Ahhhhh, help meee! * DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THE PICTURE USED IN THE COVER. ALL RIGHTS GO TO THE OWNER.

''After a few seconds of them staring at one another, Dante finally spoke.

With the knife left on his palm for Nate to grab, he cooed sheepishly, "Can you...tease me...with this?" Nate Kennedy was devastated when his parents announced their moving overseas. As for him, he was forced to move to a new city, get an apartment near his aunt and enroll in a brand new school. It all started going left when he encountered an assassin named Dante Hercules known not only in their city, but across the entire territory.
