In the opulent yet dangerous world of Giovanni Valerius, where power is absolute and loyalty is paid in blood, Rose is an unwilling pawn. Abducted and forced into marriage with the enigmatic and ruthless man known only as "The Ghost," she is thrust into a life she never imagined, confined to a gilded cage. Just as Rose begins to navigate the treacherous currents of her new reality and the unsettling allure of her husband, a chilling reminder of her past resurfaces.

An old enemy, Falcone, a ghost from Rose's high school years and a man with a dark, obsessive history with her, returns from the dead. He doesn't just seek revenge against Giovanni; he seeks to reclaim Rose, seeing her as his ultimate prize and Giovanni's greatest weakness. The war becomes brutally personal when Falcone sends a grotesque message, forcing Giovanni to take drastic measures to protect Rose, even if it means confining her in a secure room.

But Rose is no longer a mere victim. From within her gilded cage, she hatches a daring plan: to use herself as bait at a high-stakes charity ball, drawing Falcone into the open. What begins as a calculated gamble erupts into a violent, chaotic confrontation, pushing Rose to her limits and revealing a darkness within her she never knew existed.

Amidst the gunfire and betrayal, a secret hope blossoms-a life growing within Rose, known only to her and Giovanni. This shared secret binds them in an unbreakable vow of protection and vengeance. As Falcone makes his final, personal move, Rose must choose whether to remain a pawn or embrace the formidable strength she has discovered, forever altering her destiny and the fate of the Valerius empire.

The Ghost's Consort is a gripping tale of power, obsession, unexpected love, and the brutal lengths one woman will go to protect her future in a world ruled by shadows.

"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.
