Gideon Frost has spent years hidden from the world-scarred on the outside, shattered within. Wealth has allowed him to disappear behind locked doors and drawn curtains, a ghost haunting his own estate. He needs a wife only in name, someone who will never ask to see the face he cannot bear to show.
Alina Parker has never belonged anywhere. Orphaned at three, passed from home to home, she carries wounds no one sees. When a marriage broker offers her a life free from struggle-a husband she will never have to look upon-she accepts, believing she's been handed a miracle.
Their wedding takes place in darkness. Their marriage begins in silence. And freedom quickly becomes loneliness.
But one night, in the moonlit garden where shadows cling to overgrown roses, Alina meets a man whose presence feels achingly familiar. A man who speaks softly, listens closely, and stirs something warm and dangerous in her chest. She does not know why her husband hides. He does not know how desperately she longs to be seen.
As their secret, stolen encounters deepen into something neither expected, Gideon battles the terror that the woman he loves will recoil if she ever sees his scarred face. Alina, determined to understand the man behind the darkness, begins to unravel a truth that reaches back into her own haunted past-back to the dreams that have followed her since childhood.
Some souls are bound long before they meet. Some wounds can only heal in the light. And sometimes the past does not return to destroy you... but to lead you home.
