Synopsis for The Do-Over Damsel Conquers the Dragon Emperor
Jill is sentenced to death by her fiancé, the Crown Prince. But just before she dies, she is sent back in time six years to the party where her engagement was decided. To avoid this path of ruin, Jill immediately proposes to the person who is after her… but it is the man who was her greatest enemy, Emperor Hadis?! Jill knows all about her future descent into evil.
She quickly withdraws her offer, but the delighted Hadis takes her back to his castle and makes her a meal. Completely won over by the food, Jill makes a life-changing decision… “I’m going to retire—no, I’m going to make you happy!” It’s time to make a new life with the enemy!
