Her soft sobs could only be heard and he hugged her till she stopped. “It might have been the accident, don’t worry you will get your memories back” Simon consoled her and patted her back. “Why can’t I remember anything?” Rania sobbed, Simon pulled her into a hug. “Hey, calm down” Simon urged but it was already too late,her face was getting flooded with tears. “I can’t remember anything,” Rania muttered and burst into tears. She touched her bandaged head, the bump on her forehead had disappeared. “I… I…don’t remember anything” Rania stuttered, her voice cracked like she was going to cry. Rania blinked her long lashes rapidly trying to rack her brain if she could remember anything but her mind was blank, not even her name was in her memory. He raised his hand and touched her soft cheek “You don’t remember anything” He didn’t even know if that was a question or a statement. The author's debut novel.Simon was and bemused at the same time. The bloody battles could tear the Heron family, and many others, apart for good. And when she realises she is deeply in love with one of the Heron brothers and he with her, can she find a way of releasing herself from the engagement? But just when she¿s starting to settle into her new life the clouds of civil war loom on the horizon, and Thomazine¿s whole world, not to mention the whole of England, threatens to change forever. When Thomazine finds herself and her fortune betrothed to her cousin Dominic Drakelon while still only a child, she knows there is something she doesn¿t quite trust about the sly, handsome boy. There is serious, prudish Simon, loyal Edward, clever Francis, the impetuous young Jamie and their romantic sister Lucy. However, she soon falls in love with the romantic house and the Heron family who live in it.
She finds herself torn from all that she knows and thrown into a completely different world. Thomazine is sent to live with her Heron family cousins in the beautiful rose coloured sprawling home of Goldhayes in Suffolk. Not only an orphan, but a considerable heiress. When her close family are carried off by the smallpox, the small, ferociously independent Thomazine Heron finds herself an orphan at the age of ten.
