"A powerful blend of love, sacrifice, betrayal, and the supernatural-woven through the dark splendour of Victorian England." -Jessica, Reviewer

A Gothic Victorian romance of love, secrets, and the supernatural.

Hidden in the shadowed attic of a vast Victorian estate, Emily and her young daughter, Amelia, live as captives-concealed by Emily's wealthy sister in the name of family honour. Below them, the household thrives on privilege and influence; above, a mother and child struggle to endure a life shaped by secrets and control.

Amelia, born into silence and confinement, has never felt the warmth of the sun. Yet she possesses an extraordinary gift: the ability to slip free of her body and soar across the skies, unseen and untethered. For Emily, her daughter's miraculous talent is both a fragile hope and a painful reminder of the freedom she once knew.

Years earlier, Emily dared to love beyond the rigid boundaries of race and class. Now, as her sister's schemes grow ever more dangerous, she must confront the past that society demanded she erase. With vengeance tightening its grip and Amelia's life at risk, Emily resolves to protect her daughter-no matter the cost, no matter the ruin it brings.

In a world ruled by cruelty and constraint, love becomes the only force strong enough to break the chains.

Perfect for readers who savour tragic Gothic romance, atmospheric Victorian settings, and stories where the supernatural deepens the emotional stakes.
