In a country where silence is safer than truth, two women risk everything to reclaim their voices.
Grace, once known only by her ghost of a name - Ghostroot - is a brilliant hacker who vanished after exposing the powerful. Oaey, once Theerawan Ponchanok, is a journalist forced underground when her investigation brought her too close to secrets the state would kill to keep.
When fate throws them together during exile, they are strangers bound by scars - but in the quiet tension of hiding, something unspoken blooms. What begins as survival becomes something slower, more dangerous: trust, and then, love.
But peace never lasts. A betrayal from the past resurfaces, dragging them into a storm of surveillance, abductions, and impossible choices. As old enemies close in, Grace and Oaey must choose between vanishing forever or stepping into the light - and daring to tell the world everything.
Radical in its tenderness, Ghostroot is a slow-burn romantic thriller about choosing truth over safety, love over silence, and how two women changed everything by simply refusing to disappear.

⸻ 🌸 Author's Note When I first started writing The Jeweler's Daughter, I honestly just wanted to see what it would feel like to create my own little world - a story that could offer a bit of escape, a bit of joy, and maybe touch someone's heart along the way. I never imagined that so many of you would read it, or that I would receive such kind messages, support, and love from all of you. I'm truly grateful to everyone who's been with me on this journey. 💌 This new story marks a new chapter in my life - something fresh, mysterious, deeply emotional, and very close to my heart. I hope it will captivate you just as much as the previous one did... or perhaps even more. Thank you for being here. This is only the beginning. 💫 ⸻ Preview Becky has always wanted to walk her own path. Her dream - to become a writer and live peacefully among the Galápagos Islands - is far from what her family expects of her. But life takes an unexpected turn when fate brings her to one of Thailand's most influential advertising agencies - and to the mysterious woman who will change everything: Freen. Freen isn't the kind of person who sits still and waits. She's drawn to faraway places, to the thrill of cameras and discovery. Yet, one night on a dark balcony, everything changes - a misunderstood kiss, an encounter shrouded in mystery - and for Becky, Freen becomes the enigmatic "Albatross", someone she both longs for and fears to get close to. But behind their seemingly simple attraction lie deeper shadows: corporate intrigue, family pressure, and the ghosts of past misunderstandings will all test their hearts. While Becky remains tied to her fiancé, Freen must hide her feelings - and both women realize that love is never simple when trust and jealousy pull them in different directions. This story is filled with drama, humor, and unexpected turns - and one question that decides it all: Can two young women find their way back to each other amid the chaos of love and do

At 20, she's a second-year International Business Management student living a life most girls can only dream of. With ethereal beauty, an enviable lifestyle, and a presence that commands every room, she's that girl - powerful, untouchable, and just a little dangerous. But beneath the perfect facade lies an attitude sharper than glass - sassy, cocky, and unapologetically harsh. Freen Sarocha Chankimha, a stunning and cold fourth-year Civil Engineering student whose life couldn't be more different from theirs. Orphaned at 15 after a tragic plane crash and abandoned by her mother, Freen was taken in by the Armstrongs thanks to her father's close friendship with them. Rebecca despised her from the start. For reasons Freen never understood, Rebecca turned her life into a battlefield - picking fights, blaming her for things she didn't do, and constantly reminding her she didn't belong. Freen endured it all in silence, hiding behind walls built high and strong, her cool composure and effortless beauty making her a paradox that fascinated everyone... including Rebecca, though she'd never admit it.

Because when fire meets ice, someone's bound to melt... and neither of them is ready for what comes next. (G!P)
