Looking for My One-Night Villainess

In the novel The Highs and Lows of Leonie's Life, Liberata Bernadette is known as a cruel noble lady whose antagonistic behavior has made her the target of everyone's disdain. But the woman currently living as Liberata is actually someone else entirely—a soul trapped in an endless cycle, forced to play the role of the villainess in this story over and over again. Having resigned herself to this predetermined fate, Liberata begins her latest reincarnation with little hope of change. However, a single unexpected encounter at a royal banquet sets off a chain of events that threatens to unravel the entire narrative. When she wakes up the next morning in a compromising situation with Archduke Gerlach Cygnus—the story's intended male lead—everything she thought she knew about this world begins to shift. Now faced with a plot that refuses to follow its original course, Liberata must navigate unfamiliar territory where the lines between villainess and heroine blur, and where her own heart might be at stake.
