The Houndskeeper

Richard Byrns wants nothing more than to escape the pressures of the city-and the memories of the dead wife he left behind. When he purchases Belleview Estate he hopes that he can drink his sorrows away in peace and perhaps leave something of value for his family to inherit after he has gone. What he does not expect is to be berated by the beautiful unconventional and silent Houndskeeper Eleana Tarell. But where Eleana sees Richard as nothing more than the handsome slightly-incompetent new master invading her beloved home Richard sees something more. Richards life at Belleview becomes something far greater than he anticipated. Because despite the sorrows that burden him he loves Eleana immediately. And he hates her for it. The Houndskeeper is an historical romance that explores moving past grief and sorrow and what it means to love someone with all your heart.
