Book Description
A lost identity. A dangerous mystery. And a deep love that can conquer it all. When a mysterious gentleman arrives on his doorstep, Alexander Moreland is astonished to discover that the stranger is not a gentleman at all, but a beautiful young woman disguised as a man, and in great need of assistance. The woman remembers nothing except her own name, Sabrina, and has only the contents of her pockets as clues to her identity: a handkerchief, a pocket watch, a leather pouch, a torn scrap of paper and a gold ring. Sabrina is certain that she is on the run from someone, or something—how else to explain the bruises on her face and the pervasive sense of dread she feels? She’s also certain that she trusts Alex to help her, and she can’t deny the sparks that fly between them. As they race through the English countryside, Sabrina and Alex must solve the mystery of Sabrina’s past—before whatever she’s running from catches up to them.

Book Description
Preface Dear readers, I take this opportunity to thank you all for selecting this book. This is my first book and I have tried with utter honesty to deliver what my heart holds and what my soul feels. I have been into poetry since my age old school days. My little fingers started learning ways to express various elements of trivial and vital concerns through a spontaneous arrangement of words and in no time I found myself swimming amid the sea of words and thoughts. Imaginations and thoughts are among those splendid abilities of human mind to take us to different lands across the globe and even beyond. Being a poet and an author, I often find myself held among those vibes of chaos and tranquillity. Through each of these poems, I have tried to cover a wider spectrum of arenas across the mortal and immortal world. Cosmos of Tranquillity will give you an insight into the nature, mundane whereabouts of human beings, mysteries, horror, romance and fiction and many such heart winning and mind boggling genres. The thoughts and meanings that hold the soul of each poem and the arrangement of words that adorn those thoughts will make you feel the flavour and fragrance and will take you to the journeys that often remained unexplored. I have tried my best to connect bead by bead my thoughts to give them a form that can talk to you and feel your pain and happiness. Your valuable feedbacks are always an asset to me. Your love, support and blessings are all I need. The creation of a creator finds its meaning only when it gains appreciation. My joy and success lies only in the smile that I can draw on your lips and the satisfaction that I can impregnate in your thirsty soul. The ability to trigger an intense desire to read, the thirst to explore and the happiness to accompany you throughout your solitary moments of life will announce my success as a poet and an author. With a heart filled with love and soul filled with gratitude, I wish you all a happy life ahead.
