Community rating: 3/5 from 1 rating.

I’m sick. Clinically diagnosed with a second personality who thinks she can do magic. But magic isn’t real, and brain surgery is supposed to fix me. Only something’s gone horribly wrong.

The last thing I remember is lying on the surgeon’s table before my mind yanked me into a dystopian future where magic is real, women are commodities, and men want me for all the wrong reasons.

I’m trapped in a dark romance—and I know it. But if none of this is real, neither are the consequences. So why not enjoy this wild ride?

Disguised as a boy, I meet three dangerously seductive men who make me feel things I’ve never felt before. Alive.

But the line between fantasy and reality is blurring, and I’m losing my grip. Am I dreaming? Or have I stepped into a future where survival is the only rule?
