The Sweet William Chronicles

Tessa lied her way into the Spirit Squad to escape a suffocating life of poverty and abuse—a desperate bid for a fresh start that led her straight to the shadows of the Ashford Arms. She came looking for ghosts, but she found William Collier.

A WWII pilot trapped in the echoes of 1947, William is a man of haunting contradictions: darkly dominant, possessively tender, and unbound by the rules of the living. From the moment he lays claim to her, he begins to dismantle her defenses, teaching her body exactly what it craves and fulfilling those desires with ruthless precision.

But what begins as a secret, forbidden obsession in the dark quickly spirals into something far more dangerous. As Tessa is drawn deeper into William’s world—a realm of endless night and shattering pleasure—the line between reality and the afterlife begins to dissolve.

With the Spirit Squad closing in to banish him forever and William’s own spectral form beginning to fade, Tessa is forced to a breaking point. She must choose: retreat to the hollow safety of her old life, or surrender everything to the ghost who claimed her soul.

Some loves are fleeting. Others are worth crossing the divide between life and death.
