Some storms shatter. Others reveal what was always meant to stay.

Seven years ago, Elara Morgan walked away from everything she knew—including the one person who truly knew her heart. Haunted by a shared tragedy, she built a new life across continents, burying the past beneath humanitarian work and the chaos of conflict zones.

But fate has other plans.

When her latest assignment takes her to a storm-ravaged corner of the world, Elara comes face-to-face with Rafe D'Souza—her childhood friend, once her protector, and the man whose heart she broke without explanation. Now a hardened security consultant, Rafe wants nothing to do with her. But danger is closing in fast, and neither of them can run.

Trapped by a web of political unrest, betrayal, and old wounds, Elara and Rafe must work together to survive. As secrets are unearthed and sparks reignite, they're forced to confront the past that tore them apart—and decide if love is worth risking everything for one last time.

Set against the lush, volatile backdrop of a foreign land, When the Storm Passed is a sweeping romantic suspense about healing, courage, and the enduring power of second chances.
