Mónica de Castro

Secrets of the Soul by Mônica de Castro follows the reincarnational journey of Althea. Rescued from spiritual darkness, she is reborn in 19th-century England as Vivian Stilwell, a rebellious and passionate woman. After a disastrous romance and a forced abortion orchestrated by the ruthless Duke Jules, Vivian marries the musician Francis Lester. Driven to become a writer, she adopts the male pseudonym Edwin Ferguson.
With her father-in-law's help, she disguises herself as a man to enter London's elite literary circles, where she falls deeply in love with the poet Leonel Campbell. When jealous rivals violently expose her disguise, Vivian is ruined. Stripped of wealth, she and Leonel plunge into the slums of London. Facing addiction, misery, and dark spiritual obsessors pushing her toward suicide, Vivian must undergo a profound spiritual purification.
A moving tale of karmic redemption, female empowerment, and eternal love.
