Autumn Leaves

About the Book

Princess Autumn is ripped out of her sheltered life and confronted with tragic events, beginning with the untimely death of her parents. She endures betrayal and cruelties from a very close friend. It seems almost impossible to prove who is behind the many dastardly deeds that befall her. Autumn changes from a trusting, shy young girl into a strong willed, compassionate young woman.

Her deep love for a childhood companion has to endure many ups and downs. Her uncle is her strength throughout, helping her to deal with the death of her parents and many other tragedies. He also battles his own misery since his wife left him for another man. Eventually he falls in love with a young lady, but their romance is cut short when his wife returns. Happy endings come to some, and could be in store for others, if the wheels of time could be stopped.

About the Author

Anita Attwood lives in California, but was raised in Germany. Her village was small and built around a castle, it was nestled in the Ringgau mountains. From early on she enjoyed spinning a yarn, as her oldest sister put it. In her early twenties she emigrated to USA. Her dream of writing a novel was her constant companion. She wrote a number of short stories and poems, but it was done solely for relaxation. At the time she was raising two boys and worked long hours as a Caterer and other office jobs. Writing had become her way to unwind. This took a turnaround when she met her husband Brian, an Englishman with overwhelming charm. It was through his encouragement that Autumn Leaves came to life.

Their children, four in England and two in the US, and of course her husband, are very proud of this endeavor and urge her to continue.
