THE IVY HOUSE
Opening its doors on the 4th February 2024
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 available from Amazon. To pre-order click here.

ABOUT ME
Hey! I’m Laura Elise. I’m an indie author from South East England, where I live with my husband and son in a cute little village.
I was the kid in the corner with a book for a lot of my childhood. Reading has always been an obsession of mine and so has writing!
I love to travel and I incorporate cities, beaches and rural landscapes into my writing. I’m also a massive history geek so watch out for various historical details in my books. I’ve got a very wild taste in music and I create a playlist for every mood and each one of my books!
If I’m not reading or writing I’ll either be on the beach, having a swim in the sea, or on my sofa, doing something creative like embroidery or jewellery making.
