Only when he does find her, he ought to tell her who he really is, outside the monastery. That'll make her run again. Dare he risk it? But if he doesn't tell her, someone else may...
Marriage to Prospero is what Leonie wants most and the one thing she knows she can't have. If he found out what she was really like, what she'd been, what she'd done, he'd despise her and she couldn't bear that. Better to leave now than live a lie ? but it's harder than she expected. If only...

The pacing complimented the plot, which was self-contained and a wonderful next step for the natural progression of the story. I hope the author continues developing and exploring the world, she has the fundamentals for a saga on her hands. Radzy Writes

Person
Rachel J Bonner is the author of the compelling and enthralling four book Choices and Consequences series. The first book in the series, Strand of Faith, was published in November 2018. Book 2, Thread of Hope, followed on 2nd May 2019, and Weave of Love in October of the same year. The final part, Cloth of Grace was released at the end of February 2020.
Getting a degree in engineering, followed by a career in accountancy is probably not a conventional path to becoming an author, particularly in fantasy or romance. Rachel says that, although accountancy isn't anything like as boring as everyone thinks, writing is a lot more fun. When not writing, she can be found walking in the beautiful countryside near where she lives, which has influenced much of the scenery in her books, or shooting things with her local archery club. Shooting targets only, honest. Nothing to worry about. (Okay, sometimes we shoot Polo mints. Or cabbages. Still nothing to worry about.)
She also enjoys swimming, eating chocolate chip cookies and growing aromatic herbs, especially thyme and rosemary. It's no coincidence that her heroine likes the same things.
