The Wife Of CastellaneUpdated at Oct 28, 2026, 06:28
Nadia Rourke is a gifted actress who has spent eight months as a cover, learning every line of a play she will never perform. The night her career collapses, a stranger hands her a card: We have seen your face.By morning she is standing in a lakeside villa in Italy, staring at a portrait of a woman who looks exactly like her.Dario Castellane, the cold, controlled CEO of a legendary jewellery house, has an offer. For ninety days, Nadia must become his wife, Livia, who has vanished and must not be missed. In return, he will pay a fortune and clear the debt crushing her mother's café. It is a contract marriage with one rule that isn't in the contract: no touching behind closed doors.Nadia can mimic anyone, and soon she has Livia's voice, her walk, even her handwriting. But the staff weep with relief at her return, the family watches for the smallest mistake, and a hidden identity is hard to keep in a house full of people who loved the woman she is pretending to be.She hates Dario for the betrayal that bought her cooperation. He is determined to win back his wife. Yet the stand-in is making him forget who he is looking for, and falling from hate to love may be the most dangerous role Nadia has ever played.
