A sudden plunge to minus 60°C swept across the globe, catching humanity off guard. Billions perished in the cold. Power outages, water shortages, internet failure, and food scarcity followed. Civilization regressed. Law and order collapsed.

Then, she woke up. Reborn one month before the disaster began.
This time, Fang Xin didn't hesitate. She hoarded supplies, prepared for chaos, and plotted her revenge. When the cold came again, she faced it alone-stronger, smarter, and ready to destroy anyone who dared use her again.
No second chances. No mercy. Every enemy was crushed without hesitation.
She's sharp, ruthless, and impossible to break. In a dying world, Fang Xin doesn't just survive-she dominates.
When Arianna marries billionaire Zach Price to save her family, she doesn't expect to fall in love with a man who'd always consider her a second choice. An unexpected turn of events brings the couple closer together, but can a marriage based on lies and deceit ever survive?

As the couple grows closer, they must battle the demons of their past and of the lives they left behind - especially when Olivia returns and decides she wants Zach all for herself.
