Forgotten Destiny

In this eighteenth-century gothic romance, a handsome stranger stirs up memories and emotions that may be a young amnesiac bride’s undoing.

A tragic coaching accident leaves nineteen-year-old Davina Grimes without a family, with no memory of her past life and no prospects. Without means to support herself she feels compelled to accept the proposal of wealthy businessman John Paterson, even though she finds him abhorrent.

Davina reluctantly settles into her new life, but as recollections of her youth begin to emerge, she finds that links to her past are rekindling dangerous emotions . . .

Perfect for fans of Linda Finlay and Gloria Cook.

Praise for Forgotten Destiny

“Once again, Tanner has created a compelling heroine in danger in a story that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. As one of too few authors writing classic gothics, Tanner, whose earlier books include Morwennan House and Tucker’s Inn, is priceless.” —Booklist
