On the surface, Victoria Whitmore has it all: the looks, the fame, the synthetic perfection of the planet Solyara, and a notorious "Five Dates Rule" that keeps the galaxy's elite at an icy distance. But behind the penthouse doors, she is a hollow masterpiece-numbed by booze, pills, and a manager-boyfriend who thrives on her dependency.
When a terrifying truth emerges, Victoria's fragile reality shatters. She isn't just a spiraling celebrity; she is a legendary being from a past life-the Alchemist-and the only force capable of stopping the universe from collapsing into eternal darkness.
To reclaim her power, Victoria must trade her chemical haze for the spiritual boot camp of Seraphina's Sanctuary. But detoxing the body is only half the battle. As the toxins leave her blood, her addiction finds a new, more chaotic target: love (if that's what the kids are calling it these days). To Victoria, validation is the ultimate high, and she's crashing fast.
Desperate to save the mission, her mentor, Audra, strikes a morally gray deal with Dr. Holmes, a handsome recovery specialist. His assignment? To act as a "romantic anchor"-to make Victoria feel so profoundly seen and loved that she no longer feels the need to hunt for validation in the arms of strangers.
But as the fog lifts, Victoria uncovers a horrifying secret: her addiction wasn't just a personal failing-it was a magical seal placed upon her soul by a dark prince to keep her powers dormant. Now, sobriety is no longer just about survival. It is an act of intergalactic rebellion, and a revenge so scathing that when she's done with him, there will be nothing left to burn.
