Elena Reed, who can see floating reader comments, realizes she is the doomed "villainess" side character in a lost-heiress story. Rejecting her prewritten fate, she exposes fake heiress Sophie Miller—who stole her identity and blackmailed her into a forced marriage using her sick grandmother. After the trial, Elena breaks free of the plot, builds her own career, reconciles with her birth family, and starts anew with Adrian Cole.
