Vivian Lowe walks into her father's birthday party dressed to kill and armed with the memories of the life her stepmother and half-sister ended.
A rebirth revenge drama with a romance running alongside. The heroine keeps the memories of a life that ended badly and spends the second one dismantling the people who ended it, which front-loads her with an advantage the villains do not have. Two arcs share the runtime: the takedown of the stepmother-and-half-sister faction, and a reconciliation with Adam Flint that softens the edges. Expect status-flexing, public confrontations, and receipts produced at the worst possible moment for the target.
Revenge with a memory advantage, so the tension is watching the plan land rather than wondering whether it will. The second-life conceit hands the heroine the upper hand early, and the Adam Flint thread keeps it from being pure scorched earth. That romance is also the compromise: the reconciliation sands down the edges a colder payback story would keep sharp.
