Against All Odds By Danielle Steel

Kang Li woke up in the body of the sickly beauty, the youngest daughter of the Kang family in Aoli Village, who had been spoiled and pampered all her life. The original host had a tough life, first being dumped, then marrying a divorced man in a fit of anger to become a stepmother, only to find herself unfortunately becoming the control set for another stepmother in the courtyard. She could certainly be considered a top contender for cannon fodder among supporting female characters. But to Kang Li, none of this was a problem. All she knew was that the so-called divorced man was a returned overseas research talent, busy with work, with a high salary and good looks, and was hardly ever at home. In these times, where food and clothing were scarce and communication was done by shouting, marrying him was nothing but good news to her, who just wanted to live the life of a salted fish. Kang's Mother: ...my daughter's gone silly! Brothers (sisters-in-law, nephews, and nieces): ...our sister (young auntie) has gone mad! However, apart from the head of the household, Captain Kang, the rest of the family were all sweating on Kang Li's behalf, worried that the delicate and frail treasure of the house (sister, young aunt) wouldn't be able to handle the grievances of being a stepmother and might hurt herself from the stress. The villagers who knew about the Kang family's situation gathered together, spewing sour words and gossiping, especially those who bore no good will and were just waiting to see the Kang family's downfall. Yet, Kang Li's life after marriage was not only blissful, but her husband doted on her, her stepchildren adored her, calling her mom the moment they opened their mouths. They clung to her like people possessed, and the wife (stepmother) had them following her every step.

Killa was never one to back down from a fight. Growing up in an orphanage, trouble followed him like a shadow, and with every punch he threw, he built a reputation as the kid no one wanted to cross. Sister Maria, his guardian, tried to keep him in line, but Killa’s fists spoke louder than words. Then came Old Joe, the owner of a run-down boxing gym in the heart of the city. When Old Joe gave Killa work to at the gym to keep him out of trouble, Joe saw something others didn’t—raw talent, an untamed fire that, if controlled, could make Killa more than just another street brawler. With Maria’s reluctant approval, Old Joe took Killa under his wing, not just to teach him how to fight, but to teach him when not to. But change isn’t easy, and Killa isn’t the kind to follow rules. As he steps into the ring, he must learn to face more than just his opponents—his past, his anger, and the question of who he really wants to be. Is he just a troubled orphan with a strong left hook? Or can he become something more?
