Description

When burnt-out office worker Cassie overworks herself straight into anotherworld, she expects the usual isekai package: gorgeous nobles, dramaticballroom politics, maybe even a swoony romance route to fix her trash life.Instead, a mysterious system boots up in her vision, one that tracks “AffinityScores,” hands out quests, and helpfully reminds her that her entire reality isstitched together by tropes.

At first, it’s fun. Easy quests. Pretty outfits. Flirty eye contact. Cassie finallyfeels… chosen.

But the system isn’t stable.

Routes flicker. NPCs hesitate. A “Questline Not Found” error pops oversomeone’s head. And when Cassie accidentally pushes past her expectedscript, the world glitches, revealing pieces of something bigger, older, andvery aware that she’s here.

To survive, Cassie must outsmart destiny, navigate dangerously handsomelove interests, and resist becoming the perfect protagonist everyone expects.But every choice she makes corrupts the code a little more… and the system isstarting to notice.

Welcome to your happily ever after, if you canignore the 404 errors.

    Cassie's character is so horrifically relatable in the first few chapters, so much so that my heart ached for her and her struggles. Hawk's writerly voice is beautiful for making your stomach churn with empathy, at times making you lightheaded with the amount of secondhand fury and a deep, wrenching sense of betrayal. I'm excited to see where this series is headed!
