He thinks it's chaos. She knows it's a chess game. Nothing in Elena Vance's life is accidental. While the rest of the world leaves their future up to fate, Elena prefers to be the architect. For eighty-four days, she has observed campus royalty Luke Hemmings-the brilliant, exhausted frontman of 5SOS who is currently drowning under the suffocating, toxic control of his high-profile girlfriend, Tiffany. Luke is guarded, defensive, and short-tempered. He doesn't want a studio partner, and he certainly doesn't want Elena-the quiet girl from the back row who just ruthlessly insulted his mixing skills and cornered him into a mandatory partnership. Locked in the pitch-black, soundproofed depths of Studio 3, Luke draws a line in the sand. He expects professional distance. He demands she stay on her side of the mixing console. But every late-night engineering session, every accidental brush of their fingers in the dark, and every uncompressed vocal track that strips his walls bare is exactly what Elena planned. She is the mastermind behind the glass, pulling the faders and rewriting his frequencies. As the quiet static between them turns into a suffocating, undeniable fire, Luke begins to lose his grip on his own rules. He thinks he's finally breaking free from his prison. He thinks he's the one choosing the chaos. What he doesn't know is that he's walking straight into her blueprint.

"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.
