Magnolia could feel her heart beating frantically as she approached them.
“Oh, here is Miss Richmond,” said Martins, his voice breaking. “You can tell her yourself, sir, because I'm afraid I do not know how to relay such news.”

“Please, talk to me!” she cried. “Where are my parents?”
The man finally looked up at her. “I am so sorry…”

“I’m afraid, miss, that they are no longer with us.”
That was the last thing Magnolia heard before her own voice filled the room with a terrible scream.

About Lucinda Nelson
Lucinda Nelson has grown up and now lives in Concord, New Hampshire.
She has studied and worked as a librarian and her meticulous research in History inspired an everlasting love for Historical Romance.
She discovered Bronte Sisters at her early teens and she has been fond of heroines like Jane Eyre, ever since.
She finally got the guts to participate on a writing contest on 2017. From right then she decided that plotting romances with rakish men and smart, feisty women, was an excitement she couldn’t stay away from. Except the times she is chasing down her two young boys.
Other than writing, Lucinda delights in watching theatrical plays, reading mystery novels and her latest discovery is cake decoration, something that she owes to her sons and her weakness for sweets.
