The Order of Solace

The Order of Solace books can be read in any order!

Five Principles of the Order of Solace

  1. There is no greater pleasure than providing absolute solace.
  2. True patience is its own reward.
  3. A flower is made more beautiful by its thorns.
  4. Selfish is the heart that thinks first of itself.
  5. Women we begin and women we shall end.

PLEASURE AND PURPOSE

Three women. Three wounded men. Three chances at finding solace.

The Handmaidens of the Order of Solace are trained to offer what their patrons need most: peace, healing, and hope. They are not promised love—but sometimes the heart has its own purpose.

Stillness, Honesty, and Determinata have each devoted themselves to service, accepting assignments that will test their patience, their strength, and their faith in the teachings of the Order.

Edward, Cillian, and Alaric were once inseparable friends, until the tragedies of their pasts left them carrying wounds no one else could see. Haunted by regret and unable to find the peace they seek, each man believes he is beyond saving.

But the Handmaidens know that true solace cannot be forced. It must be chosen.

Through resistance, doubt, and the secrets that threaten to keep them apart, these three women will offer their patrons the greatest gift of all—the chance to heal.

In the world of the Order of Solace, love is never the goal…but it may be the one thing that changes everything.

A deeply emotional collection of fantasy romances about forgiveness, redemption, and the unexpected power of the heart.

NO GREATER PLEASURE

She was trained to offer solace. He was certain he didn’t deserve it.

Handmaiden Tranquilla Caden has devoted her life to the teachings of the Order of Solace, guiding patrons toward peace, healing, and acceptance. Every assignment is a chance to fulfill her calling.

Gabriel Delessan has everything a man could want—wealth, influence, and the means to secure the services of a Handmaiden. But beneath his privilege lies a man burdened by regrets and convinced there are some things even solace cannot mend.

Tranquilla sees past the walls Gabriel has built. What begins as a duty becomes something neither of them expected: a connection that challenges the vows she has sworn and the truths he has spent a lifetime avoiding.

To give Gabriel the solace he needs, Tranquilla must convince him of the one thing he cannot believe—that he is worthy of love.

Set in the richly imagined world of the Order of Solace, this heartfelt fantasy romance explores healing, devotion, and the transformative power of a love that asks nothing but honesty.

SELFISH IS THE HEART

She entered the Order to escape one future. She never expected to find another.

Annalise Marony has no desire to become a Handmaiden of the Order of Solace. Her vows are meant to be temporary—a way to break the betrothal binding her to her beloved childhood companion, Jacquin. She hopes to free them both from a marriage neither truly wants, then return to the life they’d planned.

Instead, the Order changes everything.

Under the watchful guidance of Cassian Toquin, a gifted teacher with secrets of his own, Annalise begins to question everything she thought she wanted. The deeper she embraces the Order’s teachings, the more she’s drawn to the enigmatic man determined to challenge her at every turn.

But Cassian is bound by duties that demand deception, and Annalise must choose between the life she once believed she wanted and the calling that may define who she was always meant to become.

Set in the richly imagined world of the Order of Solace, this emotional fantasy romance explores love, sacrifice, destiny, and the courage to follow the path your heart never saw coming.

VIRTUE AND VICE

She escaped his kingdom. She never expected to return to his side.

Years ago, Jarron Bydelay showed mercy to a young thief, giving her the chance to escape a life that should have ended in chains. That single act of kindness led her to the Order of Solace, where she was reborn as the Handmaiden known as Redemption.

Now Jarron is king, and to avoid a politically necessary marriage, he has petitioned the Order for a Handmaiden.

He never expects her.

Jarron doesn’t recognize the woman he once saved, but Redemption remembers him—and everything she left behind. As court intrigue threatens the future of the province, she’s drawn into a dangerous struggle between duty and desire. Torn between the vows she swore to the Order, the demands of the man she once loved, and the king who unknowingly changed her life forever, Redemption must decide where her loyalty truly belongs.

Set in the richly imagined world of the Order of Solace, this emotionally charged fantasy romance is a story of mercy, sacrifice, and the extraordinary power of second chances.

BEAUTIFUL THORNS

Some vows are meant to be broken. Others deserve a second chance.

Ten years ago, Tenacity served as Eamon’s Handmaiden of the Order of Solace. When their time together ended, she walked away with a broken heart, certain she’d never return.

No Handmaiden has ever been assigned to the same patron twice.

Until now.

Against centuries of tradition, Eamon’s petition has been granted, bringing Tenacity back to Dugal House—and back to the man who once failed her when she needed him most.

Eamon knows he doesn’t deserve a second chance. But after ten years of regret, he’s determined to prove he’s worthy of the Order’s greatest gift…and of the woman he never stopped loving.

As old wounds reopen and buried desires awaken, Tenacity and Eamon must decide whether love can survive betrayal—or whether some hearts are too damaged to heal.

Set in the richly imagined world of the Order of Solace, this deeply emotional romance explores forgiveness, devotion, and the courage it takes to love again.
