A romantic drama of love and secrets...

Dahlia Moore's "When the Storm Subsides" is a captivating exploration of love, trust, and the intricate dance between two souls scarred by past betrayals. At the heart of this novel is Eleanor Conolly, a woman who, after the painful dissolution of her marriage, makes herself a solemn promise: no more lies. The betrayal by her ex-husband was a wound too deep to forget, and Ellie was determined not to let history repeat itself.

In her quest for healing and self-discovery, she immerses herself in her career as a psychology researcher. Her work leads her to a seminar in England, where she has a fateful encounter with Michael Stern. As an instant connection is made, a spark could light up even the darkest corners of their hearts. Yet, from the beginning, it's evident that Michael carries secrets, the weight of which he's reluctant to share.

Upon returning to Albany while Michael relocates to Manhattan, their love deepens. Still, the specter of Michael's hidden past looms large, a constant presence in their lives. Ellie grapples with her innate need for trust and transparency. She understands that love alone cannot mend the scars of betrayal. As the winter season descends upon them, culminating in a fateful stormy night in Albany, the tempest outside mirrors the tempest within their hearts. Secrets that have long been buried resurface, demanding acknowledgment and resolution. The author masterfully orchestrates this climactic revelation, drawing readers into the whirlwind of emotions and uncertainties that Ellie and Michael must confront.

"When the Storm Subsides" is a tale that transcends the ordinary contours of romance. It delves into the intricacies of trust and vulnerability, inviting readers to ponder the complexities of human connection. Moore's storytelling prowess shines through as she navigates the labyrinthine paths of love, making this novel an emotional journey that lingers in the heart long after the storm has passed.

An amazing novel!

This is the best book I've read in a very long time! An engrossing story with characters that I came to care about, at times heartbreaking, at times very moving, sometimes frustrating. Family and personal challenges and growth, strong friendships, and coming to terms with the past to build a strong future. Baking215

I enjoyed how the story unfolded around Mike's past. I thought the end was too abrupt. The book reminded me to be more tolerant of people. You never know what they have been through and how it affects their behavior. Efraim Sadka2 1 follower

The writing is crisp and believable and most of all, as in all Dahlia Moore’s books, full of strong female characters who are a delight to encounter for their wisdom and strength. Shosh Carmel2
