All 3 stories (2 full-length novels with one novella set in-between) center around the same main couple. The Forgotten Ages box set is available for 99¢ (89¢ for Kobo if VIP member).

Apparently the characters also show up in the later books of her Emperor's Edge series which is set 18 years later. I haven't read that series yet, though I do have them all in my TBR. I read the Forgotten Ages series first as I was told there was much more focus on the romance. And I would definitely classify it as a closed-door romance. The Emperor's Edge series apparently eventually has a romance too, but is much more of an ensemble fantasy series.

Spoiler:

I was assured the Emperor's Edge series has an HEA and that it also continues the HEA of the couple from the Forgotten Ages series who are now married with children.

Just FYI, there's also a sequel series called Chains of Honor which ends with all of the HEAs intact. I didn't ask for spoilers from the person who recommended me the series other than an assurance she didn't kill off any of the main characters from the previous series or ruin the HEA. I needed that!
