It sounds like a thousand heartbeats happening at the same time.’ Annika has lived a life of comfort and luxury as the Princess of Kadier—but now, after the death of her mother, she’s weighted under the looming threat of a loveless marriage arranged by her cold father. Far outside the palace walls, on the outskirts of the land Annika’s family has long ruled over, Lennox is waiting for his moment. His people displaced, his father gone, Lennox knows that it’s up to him to lead his people into a battle to overthrow the Kadierian monarchy. After Annika and Lennox’s worlds collide, they can’t stop thinking of each other. Annika has waited her whole life to find out what love truly feels like—but could it be that she’s found love with someone she can never have?

I am amazed at the nuggets of wisdom offered in this book about what it means to be a woman. The book was written over 50 years ago but the author addresses issues women are facing in 2025 as if she were here with us . Clearly and lucidly she offers refreshing insights on the roles of women which are unique to women. Her courageous voice is a welcome relief from the clamour of dissenting voices and opinions that daily assaulting us in our hyped-up, information saturated, technology driven age!
