The first book of The Alpha series, I loved it, the writer is brilliant!!!
Mesmerizing
great read,action packed, love, sex, drama, everything a good book needs !
I can’t wait for more chapters to this book. It’s really getting good. I hope it’s updated really soon.
This was a great story!
Amelia is one of the most relatable female characters I have ever read and Stephen is the sweetest guy ever! He has definitely ruined men for me lol. It is simply impossible not to fall in love with these two and their story.
Is this book related with second chances? Or it’s a separated book?
good read. female lead was a little annoying at times.
ready for book #2
Lovely book
Let me be clear: I have never wanted someone to fail more in my entire reading life than I want Yao Qingqing to fail. And the author is feeding me exactly what I need. The conflict setup is deceptively simple. Two girls, one train, same destination, mutual hatred. But the stakes keep escalating in ways that make you grip the book tighter. First, it's social—Yao Qingqing tries to isolate Lin Jiayi by gossiping with the girl next to her. Then it's reputational—"you don't even have a mother to teach you manners." Then it's literally physical, in the sense that Yao Qingqing's entire future (the inherited job, her social standing) was built on sabotaging Lin Jiayi's family, and now it's all collapsed. The Yang Xueqin subplot is where the real stakes live. This woman—Lin Jiayi's stepmother figure, the one who was supposed to start at the hospital—has no idea her job is gone. When she finds out and 'cried and made a scene until the hospital called in the Public Security Bureau,' that's not just comedy. That's a woman who built her entire identity on a position of power, watching it crumble in minutes. And she has no idea WHY. The dramatic irony here is delicious: we know Lin Jiayi did this, and Yao Qingqing is still out here plotting, and Yang Xueqin is still out here scheming, and none of them know the board has already been flipped. What keeps the tension high isn't just 'will Lin Jiayi win'—it's the underlying question of whether the system itself will crush her anyway. She has money, yes. She has a magical space, yes. She has a father who loves her, yes. But she's still being sent to the countryside. The stakes aren't just personal; they're structural. The novel seems to be asking: how much agency can one person actually have within a system that determines your fate before you even board the train? And Fang Tianze showing up at the end—'a firm hand suddenly patted her shoulder from behind'—that's the author introducing a new variable into an already tense equation. New character, immediate attraction, mysterious connection. The stakes just got personal in a whole new way.
what a beautiful cover
