The Hounds of Love: It's been over 20 years but now he's back. . . just in time for Christmas Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 169 ratings

It's been over 20 years but now he's back. . . just in time for Christmas.

Amber’s fab at almost forty. She has the perfect family life including cheeky beagle Olive, much to the annoyance of nosey, school mum, Jayne. But appearances can be deceptive and when an old boyfriend unexpectantly comes back into her life, it brings back all the feels.

Delilah’s an aspiring dancer, she’s completed dance school and now what? After a few failed dance auditions, she’s tempted to try riskier means to make ends meet. Anything would be better than working for mega micro manager, Miriam and her need to say that everything is
fandabedose.

A frightening event throws Amber and Delilah together, making them both re-evaluate their lives. Is Amber truly happy in her seemingly perfect home with her perfectionist husband? Can Delilah overcome her anxiety and all the uncertainty that comes with being in your twenties? Is the grass always greener or merely just a different shade?

Can puppy love last the test of time?

A witty and heart-warming story about self-acceptance, love and having the courage to live your best life.

Fans of Dawn O'Porter, Marian Keyes and Mhari McFarlane will love this humorous and poignant story.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Belle Henderson is a lover of books, big hair and training her beagle not to eat all her furniture and possessions. She lives in sunny Swindon, UK with her family and said naughty beagle.

Belle co-wrote her first romantic comedy in 2019 whilst on maternity leave. In 2020 she was made redundant and in-between parenting and tearing her hair out, she has created another five stand-alone chick lit books, all set in the fictional seaside location of Coolsbay, based in the South-West of England.

People’s idiosyncrasies fascinate and occasionally amuse Belle. She loves to home in on these quirks which subsequently help to breathe life into her characters.

Belle’s books are quirky, romantic, laugh out loud and always a little toe-curling.

Come swoon (and cringe laugh) with Belle.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, relatable and addictive!

    Every book by this author just gets better and better. The way she writes is so relatable, I love the character descriptions and can picture everyone perfectly! The story of two separate main characters comes together brilliantly well, and just when I thought I had worked out a few connections I was caught out! Incredibly fun to read, I couldn't put it down! Hilarious and clever!

    What a delightful and heart warming tale. A story of friendships and families, a tale of first loves and new loves. A story of mischievous canines and cheeky infants stealing your heart away. With memorable characters some you will love and some you may simply love to hate. Well worth checking out.

    Thank you to the author for putting this up for a special promo during the Indie Author Winter Wonderland Event.

    Really enjoyed this book. The writing style keeps you wanting more with the two stories happening in parallel. Loved the main characters and the side characters were great too.
    Excellent rom com with some not so romantic storylines thrown into the mix too!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A crafty little canine rom-com!

    A crafty canine rom-com with a dual POV that marries up for the ahhhh moment. Amber was funny and sweet and some very LOL moments with her and Filipe (grrr he was a pain, every time he said 'churri' I felt a twinge of hate lol). I loved the doggy antics; Olive the beagle was one smart dog. She seemed to know exactly what was going on even if no one else had a clue. A satisfying read with some crazy moments and quirky characters, another fun book from Belle!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for romance and dog lovers! Loved it!

    This is a brilliant novel for romance and dog lovers.

    The two perspectives of women at different stages of their lives are both very likeable and their character growth is fabulous.

    Olive the dog is incredible. She's the best friend we all need and is quite possibly the star of the whole book. I don't want to give any spoilers so all I'll say is: I thoroughly enjoyed her antics at the dinner party and errmm, the "knicker incident."

    There's some relatable playground drama, I think we all know a Jayne, and all the extra characters are fleshed out and believable.

    I was sad when it was over, and glad the author has included some jumps into the future to show how things worked out.

    I highly recommend this book. It will make you smile.
