About the book: 1998 / Young Romy, raised without a mother. Imagine her joyful surprise when Sophia Stanford, living in France, unexpectedly showed up and invited her daughter to stay with her. When Romy arrived, it turned out that she became the owner of several cottages, used as a private boarding house. The girl’s first instinct was to sell the cottages and in one fell swoop get rid of the headache associated with their maintenance. However, meeting Claude Laroche, a handsome but treacherous and cunning, in her opinion, owner of the castle who claims her property, convinces Romy to do otherwise..
