Writing Contemporary Romance & Women's Fiction as Elysa Summers

THE HOUSE ALONG THE WAY
The house between the edge of the village and the nearest town belongs to the last of the McIntosh brothers, Kenneth. For years, the McIntosh family have been rumoured to be violent and possibly psychotic.

Ella Tennant is loved and looked after by her whole village, for she was born with a rare genetic condition that means she cannot feel fear. Her free-spirited, optimistic nature and her obsessive need to sketch everything she sees have carried her through her challenges.

"Stay away from that house along the way," she's always been told. But her curiosity has finally snared her – it’s the one thing in her village she's never sketched.

When a terrifying man and a woman who can never know terror meet, a fuse is lit and sparks fly. But are the villagers ready to hear a different story?
