@deleted user sigh FL does not need to be aware of her feelings to be in Denise.

FL looks more like she has what is called avoidance and somatic attachment style. Though she could just be currently in the avoidance response to trauma. 

Denial is a really interesting symptom of trauma to write about. To a rational person it makes absolutely no sense how a person can not see the truth, but to the person in denial its the least obvious thing possible. She also has knowledge of the og story. So add in that knowledge, her trauma, the butler, and her goals. Now you have a perfect recipe for the subconscious desire to protect onceself and boom very plosiable very believable reason for FL to be an oblivious box of rocks.

I've read and dropped plenty of stories with obvious box of rocks leads, this story seems to have the most potential to not disappoint if the writer doesn't drop the ball. 

I recommend I’ll Be The Matriarch In This Life if you like aspects of this story but not the FL's love life chooses.
