The Thornton Trilogy #1
No Regrets
No Regrets is a captivating, straight from the heart novel. This is a story for everyone who has ever wondered: Are there truly Soul-Mates?
Sloan Thornton is the heir to Highcroft Hall, the family seat of the Earl’s of Wessex, in the quaint village of Thornton-on-Sea, on the southeast coast of England. He has always dreamed of finding his soul-mate. However, in a moment of weakness, just before he leaves to fight in World War II, as an RAF pilot, he proposes to his childhood sweetheart, Anne Whitfield. There is no question how deep his devotion is to her, and how naturally they bring out the best in each other.
But, one fateful afternoon, Sloan encounters Elise, in a rural farmhouse on a French country road. It is May, 1940, and the Dunkirk Beaches are being evacuated. Sloan is wounded when his plane is shot down by the Luftwaffe. After he meets, Elise, he can never forget her. He carries her memory with him throughout the war. In the meantime, Elise suffers terrifying misfortune.
When they meet again for the first time in over five years, the spark is still there. But, there is still Anne, who refuses to be left heartbroken and rejected. Sloan begins to question whether the life he’s living is the one he’s meant to live. Elise wonders the same thing.
No Regrets is a powerful story about one woman at the crossroads of true love and real life.

No Regrets: Book 1
I liked this novel except for the fact that if I never hear / read the word "daft" again it will be too soon. I gave this novel a three*** because the book just came across as "phony" to me. I know that is a terrible thing to say but there was so much bull---- in this novel (including daft this and daft that.) I was thrilled when I finished it! Sorry Ms Payne

You cannot help but enjoy each page, every word!
I have already recommended it to friends.
Enjoyed the story line from start to finish.
Is there going to be another book following up on the characters?

An easy to read story beginning during World War 2 and set in France and England.
It is a love story; however, there is deceit and betrayal along the way as well.
As an avid fan of World War 2 romances, I look forward to the next two books in this series.

The story was interesting but I didn't care for the writing style. At times it seemed a little fairytaleish
and juvenile.
