“So, my dear, what brings you here to me?”

Heather Ann was born in Ipswich but grew up far from England in the rural Highlands of Scotland. With only her mother Katie – the strongest female role model – to keep her on the straight and narrow, Heather faces numerous challenges, some might say far too many.

From heartbreak to heart troubles, Heather endures the hardships of growing up in rural Scotland without mobile phones, computers, or even double glazing. Her life is arduous, but the pursuit of happiness proves a worthwhile struggle.

Often, we find that happiness is like a distant boat we swim towards, only to nearly drown before being rescued by a stranger on the beach. Heather’s journey to find true love is paved with broken hearts, as too many fish in the sea turn out to be mere trout.

Throughout her life, Heather experiences the effects of an unseen force – some may call it luck, others the work of a guardian angel. But will she navigate safely through life’s turbulent waters?
