Summary
Sofia Penwood has been dead for three months.
At least, that’s what the world believes — the closed‑casket funeral, the obituary, the quiet statements from the surviving members of her father’s organization. It’s safer that way. Safer for her, safer for anyone who might try to help her, safer for the child she once was and the woman she’s trying to become.
Living under a new name in London, Sophie keeps her head down, takes a nanny job, and builds a life small enough to survive in. She doesn’t expect Ben — steady, infuriatingly kind, impossible‑to‑shake Ben — to become the one person who sees her even when she’s trying not to be seen.
But danger doesn’t care that she’s supposed to be dead, and Sophie has to decide whether to disappear again… or stay in the one place that finally feels like hers.
Slow burn. Found family. Mafia politics. Medical realism. A woman learning she’s allowed to be loved, and a man who refuses to let her disappear.

Summary
"I don't pay an interpreter to be a ghostwriter," Sophie said.
"I translated the version of you who wasn't panicking," he replied calmly.On a high-stakes European press tour, actress Sophie Baek needs a literal parrot. Instead, she gets Ben Ledger: fluent in six languages, infuriatingly perceptive, and secretly hiding a Bridgerton inheritance. When he starts translating her hidden intent rather than her PR-scripted lies, their claustrophobic proximity combusts. She is determined to strip away his bohemian disguise, while he is determined to unravel the fiercely guarded woman beneath the fame.
