The Walls of Caryfaith Hall

Lord Jules Belany thought his life was the sea, his ship's helm a vital part of his soul, and his ancestral home, Caryfaith Hall, not worthy of any upkeep. After all, the Hall had been crumbling for years, no one really cared about the place, and his plan was to keep his stolen money, not waste it on repairing a Hall he rarely spent time in. He would have remained at sea had he not met Lady Cecelia. A pirate and rouge for most of his life, she desired to change him into a husband and doting father. Jules, with the sails billowing above his head, and the spray of high seas in his face temporarily abandoned; perhaps change was possible. His chosen occupation had served him well over the years. He was a rich and powerful man no one dared question. Perhaps it was time to settle down with the right woman. Unfortunately, there was one man willing to take all of this away from him, including Lady Cecelia, if given the chance. Lord Christian McCallahan, Jules' cousin was going to do whatever it took to gain Caryfaith Hall. If he could not have the Hall by fair means, a Hall denied him by birth and one Jules was not willing to just hand over on silver platter, then he was willing to go to war with Jules just to have the woman. Spanning the years of a man's hardships, with the love of family backing him up every step of the way, and Lady Cecelia at his side, Jules' pirating days are finally over. Or, are they? Caryfaith Hall proves even a pirate can redeem himself when least expecting it.
