Shadows of Light

In the city that never sleeps, one woman is unraveling—memory by memory, touch by touch.

Beatrix Mercer has spent years perfecting three specific things: her career as a fashion conservator, a carefully curated reputation, and her refusal to fall for a man. 

When fractured memories break through and shadows close in, her grip on reality slips. She’s felt it for years—what it’s like to be watched, to sense eyes where they shouldn’t be, phantom touches when no one is there.

Then, he appears.

Gabriel Di Rossi. Enigmatic. Intense. Impossible to ignore.

Their connection is electric, but as lust tangles with obsession and trust erodes under the weight of secrets, Beatrix must ask herself: is Gabriel her salvation…or her ruin?

Some memories refuse to stay buried.

Some truths won’t let you forget.
