Annaliese Rose was the heir of the Orelinde Kingdom, daughter of King Fastolph and the deceased Queen Mareline. At the time of her mother’s death she was fourteen years of age, four years away from being crowned the new Queen of Orelinde. The death devastated the family and brought her father into a depressed and raging state of mind, which in turn lead to the clash of the Orelinde and Gamwich kingdoms. A war broke out between the two, a war that would last until a brave sacrifice. On the day of Annaliese’s seventeenth birthday, three years since the Elvish-Mage war had started, her father announed his engagement to Solstice Primula, the Queen of Gamwich. Three days after the announcement the two would be married and a war ended. The sacrifice would go unnoticed by Annaliese, until the day of his death, which would occur exactly one month from her eighteenth birthday. His death was a sudden one that would allow Solstice to become the primary ruler of both kingdoms, an event that would change the course of Annaliese’s life. For on the day before eighteenth birthday, during her crowning rehearsal, and attempted assassination of Annaliese would take place by one hired by someone within the royal family. Fingers were pointed and Queen Solstice was the main suspect. The crowning was to be put on hold until the day the Queen, herself, tried to kill her step-daughter, the day that Annaliese made a run for her life.

It wasn't my looks, my health or my social status. It was my mind. I am sick of men telling us, women, what to do. I am sick of my mother telling me to find myself a rich husband. I am sick of my Father being a member of the house of lords but I still won't be the person following him, even though I am the oldest. And why is that? Because I am a woman and that is the only reason. But I decided to defend myself. I decided to make a difference. My plan was to make women join protests against the sexism going on. To inspire them to defend themselves and I was going to achieve my goal even if it meant that I would have to leave behind everything. I only made one rule for myself to follow: don't fall in love. But when I met the Viscount Tewksbury of Basilweather, I quickly knew that I had to focus so I wouldn't break that rule. #5 in SherlockHolmes (16th January 2023) #6 in enolaholmes (4th February 2023) #3 in runningaway (4th February 2023) #5 in emmawatson (28th May 2023) #2 in Tewksbury (10th July 2023) #1 in womensrights (6th June 2024-29th July 24) #1 in Sherlockholmes (17th August 2023) #2 in runningaway (26th November 2023) (All the characters except my own belong to the owners of Enola Holmes) About 30.000 words have been used in this bookComplete
