Bryanna wakes up inside a story she knows by heart, in a body with a mother, Jasmine, who is walking straight toward the plot's worst chapters. Bryanna has read the ending. Jasmine has not.
What Bryanna discovers is that Jasmine can hear her thoughts, so every private observation becomes advice her mother can act on. Bryanna starts steering: warning Jasmine off a poisoned alliance, feeding her lines at the right dinner, nudging her away from the family member writing her downfall. But knowing the plot means knowing who dies and when, and changing one scene bends the ones after it. Bryanna has to decide how much of the story she's willing to break to keep her mother alive.
