Seventeen-year-old Mira is obsessed with Eternal Vow, a top-ranked Wattpad romance about a brooding prince and a fearless commoner. She has read it a hundred times, debated fan theories, and even written her own alternate ending.
But when the author suddenly announces a major rewrite, turning the strong-willed heroine into a damsel in distress and erasing key characters, Mira is devastated. That night, she angrily comments on the update, only to wake up inside the story itself.
Now living in the fictional kingdom of Vairon, Mira discovers that the rewrite is already in motion. Characters she loves are vanishing, and the prince she once adored is now a cold-hearted villain. To stop the changes, she must find the original manuscript hidden somewhere in the kingdom. But time is running out, and if the rewrite is completed, Mira will be trapped in this broken version of the story forever.
With the help of a rogue knight (who wasn't even in the original plot), Mira embarks on a race against the edits, determined to fix Eternal Vow before it's too late. But in rewriting destiny, will she change her own fate as well?
