THE HOUSEKEEPER’S VOW

The Housekeeper’s Vow is a romantic and psychological thriller of power, envy, and quiet revenge, set inside a glass-walled penthouse where nothing is as transparent as it seems. Georgia Lane, known to the world as G. L. Sterling is a celebrated academic and bestselling author whose words about trauma have saved countless readers. Publicly, she is brilliant, wealthy, and admired. Privately, she is exhausted, haunted by a buried past, and financially propping up her charming but stagnant fiancé, Noah, whose ambition feeds more on her success than his own effort. When Georgia’s longtime housekeeper abruptly resigns, her replacement arrives almost too perfectly. Lizzy is young, capable, soft-spoken, and a devoted fan. But beneath her modest appearance lies Josette Hilton, a woman Georgia once knew at Bradford University, a woman who never forgot being overlooked, replaced, and erased. Lizzy has not come to clean, she has come to audit Georgia’s life. Living quietly within the penthouse, Lizzy observes the fault lines Georgia refuses to see, the emotional vacuum, the unpaid devotion, and most importantly, Noah’s hunger to be admired. Where Georgia challenges him, Lizzy soothes. Where Georgia is absent, Lizzy is present. A warm meal. A listening ear. A mirror that reflects Noah as the genius he longs to be. As Georgia grows suspicious and the past tightens its grip, Lizzy’s true plan unfolds, not just to expose secrets, but to dismantle Georgia piece by piece. Reputation can be destroyed. Money can be drained. But taking the man Georgia has sacrificed everything for? That would be the final reckoning. The question lingers like a held breath: Will Noah recognize the seduction for what it is or will he willingly step into Lizzy’s trap, sealing Georgia’s undoing from inside her own glass house?

Inane Spy

Greetings, people! Allow me to drop the mic: I am a spy. Well, technically, I was—until the agency decided my cover was 'too blown' after I accidentally live-streamed a mission on a social media platform. I was kicked out by my superiors—becoming unemployed suddenly. Then, I was married to a man, who thought that it would be better if I stay in the house, while he works outside. Years zipped by in blissful domestic drudgery—I was your ‘classic happy housewife,’ whipping up dinners and dodging PTA drama. Then, boom: my husband, that cheating son of a bitch, drops dead in a 'freak golfing accident' (yeah, right), leaving me and our mischievous twin sons a suspiciously massive pile of cash. Jackpot? Think again. Enter his boss: tall, dark, handsome, and oozing danger like a walking cologne ad—with a pinkie ring that screams 'trust fund mobster.' Turns out, hubby's 'import-export business' was code for mafia mayhem—smuggling everything from knockoff Rolexes to endangered parrots. Well, I always doubted that piece of shit. He seized all of my money—yes, my money—and threatened to kill us... until I convinced him that I can spy for him on his enemies. Great idea, right? I mean, I was a spy—it’s obvious that I can do it. Disclaimer: It’s just a novel. Don’t be serious. It’s just a fiction. All the characters are from my imagination. They don’t exist in the real life. Nah! Nope, they don’t. Trust me in this. So, there are themes in the story that might be disturbing. But let me tell you. I condone them and I suggest you to take it just as a fiction. No need to think over them. And if you find it very disturbing then, I request not to read the novel any further. Thank you.
