When Madeleine retreats to the forgotten estate of Vallée Cachée, she expects silence-not Roman. His presence unsettles and intrigues her in equal measure. Their shared isolation in this remote valley in the French Alps begins a wary coexistence, sparking a delicate tension that deepens as two guarded souls learn to see-and eventually trust-each other. Within, Madeleine carries a secret world-an inner life shaped by poetry, music, and longing. Beneath her calm surface runs a torrid current of emotion she rather keep private, especially from Roman. In the Valley's unexpected beauty, she feels suspended in that flow; the poetry and music give her a secret existence and purpose that excuse the failings she believes she shows on the surface. For the first time, she has discovered a place in the physical world that matches her inner landscape. Madeleine, a former fashion model who has left behind a glittering but hollow career, arrives with no idea what awaits her. Where Roman expects to intimidate, she instead feels an uncanny pull to the valley's rugged beauty - its silence, remoteness, and fairytale melancholy mirroring the interior world she has long concealed. Long-buried memories begin to surface, awakening grief, desire, and the fragile hope of renewal. After the death of his wife and unborn child, Roman walks away from the relentless world of London finance and retreats into solitude as the taciturn groundskeeper of Vallée Cachée - a secluded valley at the foot of the French Alps. Determined to keep the world at arm's length, he has no intention of letting anyone disturb the quiet refuge he's built from grief. But when he's tasked with collecting the estate's new inheritor, his resolve is tested. As weeks unfold, Roman and Madeleine's wary exchanges deepen into tenderness and vulnerability. Their attraction is undeniable - yet intimacy threatens to reopen old wounds neither has fully faced. When misunderstanding fractures their fragile connection, both must confront the ghosts of abandonment, identity, and shame that have shaped their lives. A journey from the Alps to Paris, the South of France, London, and Istanbul forces them to uncover the truths they have spent years avoiding - and to decide whether love can survive the weight of the past. Lyrical, atmospheric, and emotionally honest, Vallée Cachée explores trauma, obsession, belonging, and the bittersweet struggle to trust another heart. A romance of inner landscapes and quiet intensity, it asks: when we finally face who we are - can we still choose to love? Vallée Cachée is a work of art in its own right-an elegant, emotionally intelligent novel that elevates the romance genre beyond convention. With cinematic clarity, Vanessa Fallis brings her background as a visual artist into every sentence, crafting scenes with precision and painterly prose into a luminous tale of vulnerability, connection, and the slow restoration of self. A perfect read for anyone who loves atmospheric settings, character-driven stories, and romances that unfold with beauty and restraint.A remote Alpine valley. Two lives marked by loss. One fragile, transformative love that forces the past into the light.
