Some hearts are soft. Some break. The rare ones learn how to do both.
When Elena Calhoun, a golden girl with perfect grades and a storm she hides behind a smile, meets Rhett Curtis, a high school dropout with a broken heart and too much weight on his shoulders. They create their own storm. They weren't supposed to fall in love but they did, fast and deep and real. From gas station sparks to dancing in the rain, they find each other in the in between. Between pain and healing, between silence and poetry, between letting go and holding on. When pressure, pride, and fear threatens to pull them apart. Rhett and Elena must choose between what's expected and what sets their hearts on fire.
Told in a dual POV and full of aching emotion, slow burn magic, and soft hope. The Ones Who Hide The Storm is a love story about two people who break, rebuild, and learn that maybe... some storms are meant to be weathered together.
