Within the Storm

He hid the truth to protect her heart… even as it broke his.

Five years ago, Bethany lost her husband, a world-famous actor, in a freak accident. Moving back to her small Norwegian hometown, she built a quiet life away from the relentless glare of fame. But her peace shatters when a vengeful co-star threatens to release a tell-all book designed to destroy her late husband's reputation.

Determined to defend his legacy, Bethany sets out to write her own biography celebrating his life. To do it, she needs childhood memories and family stories — which means asking for help from the one man she swore she'd never turn to: his brother, Lukas.

Lukas knew his brother never deserved Bethany. But watching her marry him anyway left Lukas trapped between guilt, heartbreak, and secrets he couldn't share. The only way to protect his own heart — and hide his attraction — was to treat Bethany with cold indifference and let her believe he despised her.

Now, Bethany's plea for help forces them together, and Lukas faces an impossible choice: reveal the painful truths he's hidden and risk shattering her world, or keep his silence and lose the chance to finally show her how deeply he's always cared.

When love, loyalty, and long-buried secrets collide, will they find healing in the storm — or be swept apart forever?

Within the Storm is Book 3 in the Seasons of Faith Christian romance series: five longtime friends, one small Norwegian town, and a reminder that God's timing is always perfect — even when love arrives later in life.
