Eliza Copley is a financially disastrous romance novelist whose latest creative obsession—an aggressively expanding sourdough culture named Larry—is the only thing bubblier than her perpetually optimistic spirit. When a catastrophic utility bill and an eviction notice threaten her livelihood, Eliza desperately needs an income stream. Enter Caleb Vance, her infuriatingly perfect, metrics-driven neighbor. Caleb is a high-powered financial consultant who lives life by the spreadsheet and views Eliza's chaotic existence as an unacceptable liability. But when Larry, the sourdough starter, leaks onto Caleb's pristine Italian leather shoes, Caleb suddenly sees an opportunity in the madness. In a move of pure fiscal audacity, they form an unlikely partnership: Eliza provides the emotional, high-touch product (a $500 artisanal sourdough starter subscription for the ultra-wealthy), and Caleb provides the ruthless, profitable structure. The result is "The Yeast of Least Resistance"—a luxury business that forces the meticulous consultant and the messy artist into co-working space... which happens to be Eliza's tiny, flour-dusted kitchen. As Caleb tracks Larry's 'mood' via encrypted PDFs and Eliza attempts to teach him that not everything can be optimized (especially human emotions, or yeast), their conflicting personalities create an explosive friction that is wildly funny and surprisingly romantic. Can a woman who believes in happy endings find common ground with a man who only trusts hard data, or will their venture—and their hearts—go flat?

Em um universo regido por uma lei primordial de Equilíbrio, o Cosmos age não por vontade, mas por necessidade. Quando o peso de uma realidade ameaça inclinar a balança de tudo o que existe, ele se ajusta. De maneira violenta. Realidades colidem. Dimensões se abrem e se fecham como pulmões ofegantes. Demônios, que eram lendas, surgem da memória do mundo. Ceitas nascem da desesperança. E antigos horrores, há muito adormecidos, voltam à vida. No epicentro desse cataclismo cósmico está um garoto chamado Tekio. Ele carrega uma marca que transcende o tempo e a existência, gravada no instante em que perdeu sua irmã — um desaparecimento que não foi acidente, mas o primeiro sintoma da grande ruptura. Agora, ele se vê forçado a caminhar por um mundo onde a lógica se dissolve. Os perigos que enfrenta não obedecem às leis da física ou da razão; são manifestações do próprio desequilíbrio universal, desafiantes e incoerentes. Mas Tekio não está só. Sua solidão é quebrada não apenas pela presença inquietante que existe dentro do seu próprio ser — um eco, um duplo, uma consciência adormecida — mas por todas as almas errantes que, sem saber porquê, se veem caminhando ao seu lado. Cada uma delas carrega um fragmento do quebra-cabeça, uma centelha do conflito primordial. O mundo — ou melhor, a própria existência — está prestes a mudar para sempre. Uma batalha silenciosa e monumental pelo equilíbrio do Cosmos está começando, e Tekio é, ao mesmo tempo, a peça fundamental e o campo de batalha. Há uma profecia que ecoa nas fissuras entre as dimensões: "Os três iniciais serão os três finais." E uma verdade ainda mais perturbadora: "Alma por alma, tudo vai se alinhar... ou tudo vai colapsar." A jornada de Tekio e seus companheiros começa com a revelação mais íntima e aterradora: o despertar da própria Alma. E o desenvolvimento mais perigoso: o domínio da própria Essência. Alma ou Essência? Eis a questão que definirá o destino de todos os mundos. A resposta, no entanto, pode exigir o sacrifício de uma pela outra. E ninguém — nem mesmo Tekio — sabe qual delas deve ser oferecida.

The young guy with meaningless life becomes a powerful person in another world.
