Chantel Rosenberg's passion for music and life had never shone brighter than the time she spent in Bordeaux, France. It's a time when feelings arose and desires ran deep, a time that fundamentally changed her life.

A man living in seclusion, Phillipe Tibideau is haunted and plagued by memories he cannot disregard. Choosing to live a quiet life in his Chateau surrounded by the vineyards of France, he's left his passion for art behind. However, the time has arrived to tell his side of a tale. A tale that has depicted him as a "beautiful monster" and he's finally allowing someone close. Close enough to ask questions. Questions he's not sure he wants to answer. Questions about her.

For up-and-coming journalist Gemma Harris, the pursuit of truth is what drives her, and when a job of a lifetime presents itself, there is nothing in the world that will stop her from taking it. Even if it does mean leaving her home for several months to stay at Chateau Tibideau, with him.

This is a story of what happens when three passionate lovers collide and the desire for truth, art, and music merge. Chateau Tibideau is a place full of unanswered questions, dark sinful desire, and a beauty so hauntingly sad it will have you wondering how you will ever leave the same...

After a violent storm in the South Pacific in the year 1643, Roberto della Griva finds himself shipwrecked—on a ship. Swept from the Amaryllis, he has managed to pull himself aboard the Daphne, anchored in the bay of a beautiful island. The ship is fully provisioned, he discovers, but the crew is missing.

As Roberto explores the different cabinets in the hold, he remembers chapters from his youth: Ferrante, his imaginary evil brother; the siege of Casale, that meaningless chess move in the Thirty Years' War in which he lost his father and his illusions; and the lessons given him on Reasons of State, fencing, the writing of love letters, and blasphemy.
