The
Haughty
Earl of Epping has
Concealed the disappearance
Of his wife, Mary. His
Unhappiness is
Nobody else’s business!
Then one snowy
Evening
She returns, claiming
She is innocent of
Everything he
Suspects she’d done, but has, instead
Forgotten who she is after an
Ordeal at the hands of
Robbers at
Gunpoint. Lost and alone she was
Obliged
To
Take to the stage to
Earn her living.
Now
Mary has to
Act
Resolutely to
Restore his belief in her
Innocence
And
Gain her happy
Ending.
(Phew!)
An emotional Regency reunion
Her memory has returned
And she’s the Countess of Epping!
Mary has arrived home, after months away, following a traumatic encounter with a highwayman that wiped her memory. Back in her grand house, her aloof—but distractingly handsome—husband, Anthony, is wary, suspecting her of the worst! But how can she explain that she’d become brave and wily to survive? She’ll need those skills if she’s to win back her earl’s trust, and if they’re to resume as man and wife once more…

Intrepid heroines, brooding heroes, sparkling dialogue.
Annie has been making up stories for her own amusement since she first went to school. As soon as she got the hang of using a pencil she began to write them down. Her love of books meant she had to do a degree in English literature. And her love of writing meant she could never take on a job where she didn’t have time to jot down notes when inspiration for a new plot struck her. She always wants the heroines of her stories to triumph over all that life can throw at them. But when she got married, she discovered that finding a hero is an essential ingredient to arriving at "happy ever after".
