Meet Raphaël Sauvage, a wealthy recluse who's spent years mastering the art of solitude. He's traded friends for shadows and love for guilt, carefully curating his world into one of work and darkness. Everyday, he is haunted by his past. 

Enter Isabelle Fourie-his childhood friend turned chaotic whirlwind, returning to the Sauvage mansion as his new maid. Once his greatest childhood annoyance, Isabelle now barrels into his life with a loudmouth, a bright smile, and absolutely no regard for the rules. Her goal is to handle her new duties and avoid trouble, but that's easier said than done when she's drawn to the moody man she used to know. As Isabelle settles into the mansion, she's quick to uncover Raphaël's secrets-including his young, traumatized nephew, Rayan, who responds only to her unusual charm. 

Despite Raphaël's cold exterior, their childhood bond tugs at both of them. Each accidental touch, heated argument, and lingering glance pulls them back to memories of friendship, now tangled with a chemistry neither expected. 
For Raphaël, keeping Isabelle out of his heart is a battle he's losing with every smile she throws his way. For Isabelle, helping Raphaël heal his demons may be her biggest adventure yet. And as their past and present collide, the walls around his solitude crack, pulling them into a world of fiery banter, hidden emotions, and the unsettling realization that sometimes, the heart you try hardest to shut out is the one you need most. 

Solitude & Storms is a tale of childhood memories, haunted hearts, and a love that was written long before they knew it.

A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.
