Description:
An ordinary memory sits like a photograph in a family album. It's always available to visit by thumbing through the pages.
A trauma memory is not pasted in the photo album. It’s relegated to the attics of our mind to be stored where it can be ignored.
Dissociation happens when a trauma memory is ripped into pieces and locked in a vault without our knowing the photo was taken.

Description:
Miss Harrietta Eastmont has a secret, but it pales in comparison to the fear of her uncle discovering her whereabouts as she rings Lady Blackstone's doorbell and prepares her deception. It took great courage to leave what little security she knew, but Harrietta soon learns it takes even greater daring to trust those who would care about her plight. Lady Blackstone's handsome and gentle son would have it no other way
