Glib Zlotchenko didn’t impress me at first sight. I didn’t lose my mind when he walked into the lecture hall, and I definitely wasn’t trying to get his attention — unlike my classmates, who wouldn’t shut up about the always serious, cold, yet annoyingly attractive lecturer in socio-political studies. But after one conversation with his overly self-confident admirer, I made up my mind: I’ll get close to him, seduce him, and then throw that fact right into my haters’ faces. Let them see what Aurora Oliinyk is capable of. I will conquer him. What could possibly go wrong?

Nika’s car breaks down on a deserted forest road. Her phone is dead, and things couldn’t get any worse—until a stranger shows up. He offers help… but soon she’s not sure what’s safer: stay in the car or follow the man who terrifies her to his remote house. Max instantly sees what she is—a city girl who thinks she can judge people by appearances. Today he’s covered in mud, unshaven, and exhausted. Did she mistake him for a nobody? Fine. Instead of his luxurious home, she gets his grandma’s old cabin: cold water, creaky bed. He only meant to teach her a lesson. But nothing went the way he planned.

Nastia had no idea what to expect from her new elite school. Fancy kids? Mockery? Not really. Tough classes? Maybe. A hot jerk who thinks the world revolves around him—and blames the new girl for everything? Now we’re getting closer. For Dan, this school is a cage he can’t wait to escape. Final year, then freedom. But the arrival of this cute, clearly innocent new girl changes everything. He won’t touch her—she’s too young for real games. But messing with her? No one said he couldn’t have a little fun. And after that, he’s free. Or so he thinks. Because one cage is about to be replaced by another. But that’s his little secret… for now.

Nazar is about to tie the knot with the girl he’s been dating for a couple of years. Not that he’s dying to—his father made it clear: Aline is the perfect match, the daughter of an influential business partner. Why stall? Meanwhile, Lia, just to spite her father, takes a job as a maid in a luxurious mansion, picking the first ad she comes across. She only needs to survive three months. But that turns out to be far more complicated than it seems—especially when the owners’ son, a cocky rich boy, decides he wants her in his bed. He’s sure girls like her—beautiful but broke—are all the same, always chasing money. So why not let him be her next sponsor? What he doesn’t know is that behind the mask of a poor maid hides the daughter of a billionaire.

Illya is confident, cocky, and knows exactly how to rattle Kateryna, his marketing instructor. With a heavy, seductive glance from beneath thick dark lashes, he asks if there’s a practical course on “How to Hold a Consumer’s Attention.” Kateryna feels a sharp sting of irritation—and something more. This arrogant, bold, insufferable student is testing her limits. Her reply is firm: “First, you have to earn that attention.” But Illya isn’t one to back down. He’s already earned some attention before—now he wants much more than Kateryna is willing to give. In this game of minds and desire, who will come out on top?

When I saw him for the first time, I realized that I was lost. Strong, confident and... twenty years older. He is definitely not the one I need, but why does my heart beat so frantically every time I see him? Is it out of fear, or is there something much deeper here?

He has a scar on his face and even deeper scars in his soul. He appeared in my life suddenly when I was running away from danger. Eljar is not just a man in a mask. He lives in a world where issues are resolved by force, and the past always haunts him. He cannot be broken, nor can he be understood. I had to leave. But I stayed. And I made a fatal mistake. Now I'm not just by his side—I'm at the center of his life. Fire, persecution, death, escape. Every new day is a battle for the right to live. And even when the mask falls, it's not clear who is in front of me: my protector or my executioner. But no matter what happens next, I'm not ready to lose him, and no matter what it costs me, I want to show him that life goes on, and that I can be the one who will restore his ability to love.

You might be the one losing. — Trust me. I won’t lose. I never do. — Oh really? Maybe you’ve just never had a worthy opponent.

Some would say that this is just a romantic story. But that's not true. For me, it's personal growth, it's change, it's stereotypes imposed by others, and yes, it's love. Love for the world, for yourself... for your partner. Some would say it's banal. But I would say it's life. Here is Alisa Migdal: lonely, cold... In a word, a "big mean girl." Is that really the case?

If an unknown, self-proclaimed scientist crossed the Princess, the Lame Duck, a naive amateur poet and a single mother with three children from two different men, he would have our heroine. If the same eccentric inventor crossed Humphrey Bogart from Casablanca with an eternal teenager and an outstanding representative of the golden youth, who only wants to enjoy everything that fate, which is indulgent to beauties, sends him, and does not want to work and take responsibility, then our hero would have emerged. In fact, he is much younger and not half as cool. She wants to finally feel true love, he wants to get rid of excessive parental care and does not want to continue the family business. And if fate or the author still brings them together in a truncated archive, then...

I accidentally stumbled upon a secret club whose members perform various strange tasks in exchange for money. Then, while looking for a job, I came to an interview and realized that my new boss and I already knew each other... “Good afternoon,” I opened the door and looked at the man sitting at the table. “I'm here for an interview...” But the words stuck in my throat, and I just blinked because I recognized him. No, I didn't know his face. But the sharp line of his chin and the mole near the right corner of his mouth — I had time to examine them closely... I thought about turning around and running out of the office, but for some reason I continued to stand in the doorway and stare at him. “Stand there, mouse,” I heard his commanding tone. “I recognized you... Come here. Let's talk...”

You know that moment in life when everything seems perfect? A job you love, family, everyone healthy, you can travel whenever you want… And you’re sitting there, basking in the glow of your own success, when suddenly you decide to open your mouth and loudly declare, “I’m kind of feeling a bit down…” The universe is like, “Oh, challenge accepted!” — and before you know it your perfect life turns into a theatre of the absurd, with you in the leading role. For example, right now I’m sitting next to the corpse of my ex-husband and, honestly, have no idea how I ended up like this. It’s all because of my pathological inability to say no to people! Seriously, if someone had warned me that being overly polite could land you in criminal trouble, I would’ve started being rude as a kid. If I’d known
