Tell A Story Day!<\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Never heard of it before? Well, believe it or not, there is a quirky holiday for every day of the year. Hallmark had an ultimate holiday site which has now closed but they’ve kindly listed some other links<\/a><\/strong> where you can discover what the holiday of the day<\/strong><\/span> is.<\/p>\n

To celebrate Tell A Story Day, I’ll be a guest at fellow loveahappyending lifestyle<\/strong> contributor and author, Anneli Purchase at her blog Anneli’s Place<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Okay, so here’s my story… in keeping with the day.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/p>\n

Blurb:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nineteen-year-old Sarah Shand finds herself thrust back into the past. There she struggles to keep her real identity from a society that finds her comments and ideas strange and her speech and actions forward, unlike Victorian women. When Sarah verbally confronts confining social practices, including arranged marriages; powerful enemies commit her to a lunatic asylum. After falling in love with the handsome Laird of Weetshill, Robert Robertson, she must decide whether to find her way back to her own time or to remain in the past with him.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now isn’t that a great story? I think so, but then I’m biased.<\/p>\n
