A Look Inside
“...because I rant not, neither rave of what I feel, can you be so shallow as to dream that I feel nothing? ”
“May be we are not such fools as we look. But though we be, we are well content, so long as we may be two fools together.”
― R.D. Blackmore, Lorna Doone

About the Book
Built around the year 1700 in the Badgworthy Water area of Exmoor in Devon and Somerset, England. A member of the notorious Doone clan, a family that used to be wealthy but now runs a criminal enterprise, brutally killed John Ridd in the remote Doone Valley. John was the son of a respected farmer. John fights his desire for revenge and grows up to be a respected farmer who takes care of his mother and two sisters. He meets Lorna by accident and falls in love with her right away. It turns out that Lorna is the granddaughter of Sir Ensor Doone, the lord of the Doones. She is also going to marry Carver Doone, the reckless, dangerous, and now jealous heir to the Doone Valley, even though she doesn't want to. Nothing will stop Carver from marrying Lorna. He plans to force her to do it as soon as Sir Ensor dies and gives him his money. But John doesn't agree.
