Aria Vale spent her whole life believing her family died in a fire. But on a storm-soaked night, when a stranger tries to kill her, Aria uncovers a truth more dangerous than death itself-her mother was the secret leader of an underground mafia force known only as The Ghost Syndicate, a group so silent and deadly that even other mafia families feared they were a myth. Now every criminal empire wants Aria: Some to use her. Some to bury her. And one-led by the cold, unreadable Dante Moretti-claims he wants to protect her, though his loyalty is as sharp and unpredictable as a blade. But Aria isn't just a target. After the attack, she awakens a strange ability: she can sense the hidden sins of anyone near her-betrayals, murders, lies-echoing like whispers under her skin. To survive, Aria must uncover the secrets her mother died for, rebuild the Ghost Syndicate from the ashes, and face the traitor who destroyed her bloodline.

But something about Bettina's calm honesty drew him in - a sense of normalcy he didn't realize he'd been missing. As continents, careers, and secrets intertwine, both find themselves caught between the lives they've built and the feelings they can no longer ignore. Because sometimes, what begins as a fleeting moment can become the one thing that feels most real.

But when she is forced to attend Elysian Court University, a secluded academy for supernatural elites, nothing about her life remains ordinary. Whispers follow her. Magic bends around her. And creatures centuries older than humanity stare at her as if she is both wonder... and threat. But none watch her with more hunger than Kael Draven. He is a pureblood vampire-cold, ancient, unfeeling. A creature meant to be untouched by desire. A prince forged from shadows and power. Yet from the moment he sees her, something inside him snaps. Kael becomes obsessed. Captivated. Possessively drawn to the girl who shouldn't exist. He prowls the edges of her steps. Shadows follow her heartbeat. And his midnight eyes burn whenever anyone comes too close. Everyone warns Aurelia to stay away from him. Purebloods do not love. They claim. And they destroy. But the closer she gets to discovering the truth of her bloodline-the truth of the ancient power awakening beneath her skin-the more entangled she becomes with Kael's dark fascination. He calls her dangerous. He calls her fate. He calls her his. And when Aurelia's hidden power threatens to break free, Kael will stop at nothing-nothing-to keep her. Even if it means breaking the world... or her heart.

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment - tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena's gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena's world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans - pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena's journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances - a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Mapmaker's Daughter is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world - they define it - and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.
