Synopsis
Kate Barton is a woman who gets what she wants. Fresh out of university, she’s secured her dream job as a jewellery designer. However, it involves returning to her imposing family home, The Ivy House and the chaos she left there. When she falls for a tall, dark, mysterious stranger, she’s shocked to learn that he’s linked to every part of her life.

Alex Compson is a man who never sits still. Clever, secretive, but vulnerable, he’s built a fortress around his heart. A chance encounter with a beautiful woman forces him out of his comfort zone and deeper into her life.

The Ivy House itself is forbidding and protective of its inhabitants, with the power to tear relationships apart, or secure them forever. With both Kate and Alex keeping secrets from each other, which threaten to collapse their relationship, will the house come to their rescue or force them apart?

The Ivy House is the first book in a series of linked standalones.
