I Refuse to Be the Second Female Lead

Description： Nora Reed finally worked up the nerve to confess to Ethan Rourke — the aloof top student she'd crushed on for years — when a girl came flying out of the crowd and planted herself in front of him:

"Ethan Rourke, I'm here to save you."

Just like that, transfer student Joy Wilde casts herself as the reincarnated heroine of a "salvation novel," destined to protect Ethan from a doomed fate. The whole school buys it. And in her story, Nora is nothing but the disposable "female #2" — the jealous rival who exists to be discarded.

There's just one problem. Nora never agreed to play that part.

As Joy's sweet act curdles into sabotage, extortion, and outright lies, Nora stops chasing a boy who won't believe her, picks up the dream she abandoned, and writes her own ending — with the childhood friend who was there all along.

A sharp, satisfying romance about refusing the role you were handed.
