Duke, drown me in gold
All Selina wants in this life is one thing: gold and money—and in terrifying amounts!
An orphan, poor, and blunt to the point that her words escape her mouth faster than her thoughts, she lives alone in a tiny apartment, works long hours for scraps, and reads novels at night to keep herself entertained.
But one night, while reading a Victorian novel about a noble knight and a charming villain, she didn’t fall for the hero… she fell in love with the villain. Why? Simple—he was rich!
She laughed and said before falling asleep,
“If I were the heroine, I’d just say: Duke, drown me in gold!”
But when she woke up, everything had changed...
She wasn’t in her apartment.
She wasn’t in her own time.
She didn’t even have her own name!
She had become a character in the novel—a maid named Julia, working in the mansion of none other than Duke Valen himself, the very villain she’d swooned over the night before!
As she struggles to adapt to this bizarre world, there’s one thing she absolutely can’t stand:
The cleaning chores she’s always hated.
So, she decides to quit and run off in search of a better life, thinking it’ll be easy...
But what she thought would be a simple resignation quickly spirals into the start of something else—
A new kind of relationship filled with comedy, witty banter, absurd situations, and a push-and-pull dynamic between a sharp-tongued maid with dreams of wealth… and a mysterious Duke who has no idea how to handle this strange girl.
