Deskripsyon
A brutal survivalist. A ruthless billionaire. And a marriage contract that was supposed to be a gilded cage... until she decided to move in and redecorate. After surviving two brutal years in a post-apocalyptic wasteland fighting monsters, Laura Lind is finally back in her original body. The catch? Her family has gone bankrupt, and they’ve sold her off to Julian Hayes—the notoriously cold, controlling, and terrifying CEO of Crestview Enterprises. According to the original rumor mill, Laura is supposed to hate her new life. She is supposed to fight the 24/7 surveillance, resent her bodyguards, and desperately plot a divorce, only to end up miserable. But Laura looks at her plush king-sized bed, her unlimited black card, and her yacht, and asks herself: Why on earth would I ever leave? Having fought for her life every single day, a life of doing absolutely nothing while a handsome billionaire pays the bills is her literal paradise. If Julian wants to "monitor" her, fine. He can do the heavy lifting. Besides, nobody knows she is secretly the genius mastermind behind Zephyr Capital, the wealthiest investment firm in the country. When Laura reluctantly agrees to appear on a celebrity couple's reality show, the internet prepares to pity the "miserable, caged wife." Instead, they are treated to the ultimate power dynamic shift: The Audit: Julian calls to check on her three times a day. Laura video-calls him back, forces the terrifying CEO to watch her try on thirty-two designer outfits, and demands a unique, ten-line compliment for each. The Vetting: Julian tries to restrict her contact list. Laura forwards every handsome stranger who tries to flirt with her directly to Julian’s personal line for "husband vetting." But when Laura’s family suddenly recovers their fortune and the "rightful" woman appears, Laura decides her retirement era is over. She packs her bags and sighs, "I understand, Julian. I’ll pack up and leave so you two can be happy." But the ruthless billionaire slams the door shut, locking her in his arms with a dark, obsessive gaze. "Say 'husband' again, Laura. Because you are never leaving this room."

I deeply appriciate the humour of the book. It's a delight to read. Nothing happens, but the interactions between the characters are so interesting, I forgot everything else while reading. The tension is there: "what happens next?" (and the answer is still nothing until the 40th chapter). We'll wait and see... And hope for a satisfying ending. The beginning was very promising: the heroine double transmigrated back to contemporary Earth, and in her absence the other transmigrator in her body was hustled into a marriage with a very obsessive billionaire husband. What will she do now that she's finished with the constant fighting of the zombi-apocalipse, or the starvation, but left with a body tuned for life-or-death fighting situations? What will her reaction be to her husband's obsessive behaving? And all of that in a frame of a live streaming TV show... Unending possibilities for funny scenes, or to observe the highest art of laziness.
