• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A nightmare! No! Not a nightmare, this was so real.
Carissa was horrified to learn at the reading of her father's Will that she and her younger sister and brothers could lose everything.
The weeks following the reading of the Will were the darkest of her life, because of the strictures laid upon her by her late, adoptive father. Carissa had two choices: marry a man she hardly knew, and didn't particularly like, or she and her also adoptive siblings would be ejected from the home they loved, leaving them homeless and near-destitute.
Carissa's despair was exacerbated by the fact that shortly before her father's death she had refused a proposal of marriage from the man she truly loved: Raulo Darroch. She'd refused him, believing that his proposal was founded in his aim of controlling her father's business. No words of love had passed his lips: his proposal of marriage had been utterly business like.
Raulo months on did learn of Carissa's plight. He accepted what fate offered and played his hand to his and Carissa's advantage. He could at last carry out the promise he'd made to Carissa's dying father. A promise he would discover to be placed in jeopardy.
Carissa, being an innocent victim.

Autorenporträt

Born and brought up in Lancashire, England, in the North West coastal town, Barrow-in-Furness.
Married in my early twenties and lived in various parts of Europe, then returned to the UK to live in Bradford, West Yorkshire. For the next eighteen years raised a family and held down a busy career in Human Rescource writing tin the evening and any free weekends a form of relaxation.
After thirty eight years of marriage, our children having families of their own; we having five lovely Grandchildren, we then moved to France.
Moving on from the previous sentence we celebrated our fiftieth Wedding Anniversary in 2018. Still have our home in a quiet part of Morbihan, Brittany. I continue to enjoy writing Romantic Novels, while my husband gardens, providing fresh produce all year round. Plenty to keep us busy, visits from family and friends, and an active life within the local French community. (The present Pandemic unfortunately has restricted that contact between friends and family ) At this point I must give thanks to a friend Dr Jenny Sullivan, for her encouragement in editing my earlier novels also her continued support as a friend.
When needing to take a break from writing my novels go to my sewing room: creating Clothes, quilting, other items for our home. Exercising is a must, in the absence of the Gym and Aqua Gym being open, also walking, not so much hiking these days. Plenty of housework, cooking, making my own bread and seasonal bottling of fruit and vegetables. All of which keep me active physically and mentally.
Back to my writing, I want my readers to enjoy my stories as much as I enjoy creating each one. A happy conclusion is a must. Continuing the theme of romance, I chose the present photo for my profile from snaps when attending the wedding of a niece since that was over ten years ago, I will in the near future update the profile photo when I have the time to look through recent snaps.
