\"LAHE<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m so excited! I joined loveahappyending.com<\/a> in 2011 as an Associate Reader and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Firstly, I’ve had the opportunity to read books that I might never have before. Secondly, and more importantly, I’ve made some great friends this past year. Most, I still only know virtually since the authors and readers are scattered to the four corners of the world. Each and every one of them is supportive and we all Tweet and Share each other’s book news – whether it be for the authors, or the readers and the great books they’ve reviewed. Talk about global exposure!<\/p>\n

Couple that with my wonderful publishing house – 4RV Publishing<\/a> and I couldn’t be in a better position to launch my debut novel to the world in September.<\/p>\n

When nineteen year old Sarah Shand finds herself in Victorian Era Aberdeenshire, Scotland, she has no idea how she got there. Her last memory is of being at the stone circle on the family farm in the year 2010.
\nDespite having difficulty coming to terms with her situation, Sarah quickly learns she must keep her true identity a secret.
\nStill, she feels stifled by the Victorians\u2019 confining social practices, including arranged marriages between wealthy and influential families, confronts them head on and suffers the consequences.
\nWhen Sarah realizes she has fallen in love with the handsome Laird of Weetshill, she faces an agonizing decision. Does she try to find her way back to 2010 or remain in the past with the man she loves?<\/p>\n
