Since childhood, Lady Raquel dreamt of being an Author and Illustrator. The art of creation through painting and penning is the most expressive way to demonstrate how she views the world. Raquel believes books gave her the liberty to dream, self-empowerment, and the ability to conceive that anything is possible. Children and adults find a way to recapture their imagination when reading.
Lady Raquel's stories allow children and women to escape into a world all their own, and there's something quite delicious about that notion.
Beatrix Potter, Tasha Tudor and Laura Ingall's Wilder are Raquel's inspirations as these women carried forth individuality and the ability to embolden their beliefs in how they wanted to see the world. They created the world they wanted; as Tasha was known to say, "When you're an artist and writer, you can play God and create anything you'd like." That is undoubtedly an empowering notion to carry in one's heart.
Lady R's storybooks are reminiscent of her dear fellow english author and spiritual guide, Beatrix Potter.
"If you like Beatrix's stories about rabbits, you're sure to adore my books about mermaids, rabbits and little animals, too! I added little personal life experiences to each story to inspire young readers to look at life through a mermaid's looking glass."~Lady Raquel M Carter

The Tale of Merrymaid Scarlette Rose:
A mischievous and disobedient young mermaid, Scarlette Rose, is chased about the water garden of the antagonist, Sir Mr Barbaric. Finally, she escapes and returns home to her mother, who puts her to bed after dosing her with tea. It is a tale that encourages following one's heart, seeking joy and trust in ourselves, and sowing what you reap.
Hence, if we believe in our power, we will always find our way home {true north}. This tale is derivative of The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter.
Sawyer and Johnny Lamb are sent away on a spirited adventure where they become lost on the way to town. The butcher takes Sawyer Lamb in, who has already stolen another lamb (Briar Rose), and the butcher's intentions are not as altruistic as the lambs expect, and things go off course.

Deceit and Dissension
A British romantic drama in the 19th century depicts a credulous young lady from an English family of landed gentry. Elizabeth, who was kept under a bell jar with her mother and father, becomes an independent and spirited force with which to be reckoned. These qualities ultimately served her well as she ventured into unfamiliar territory.
She is married to the sardonic Duke of Winchester; however, unintentionally, she finds true love in the head gardener at Eccleshall Castle. Upon this discovery, the Duke uses deception and hypocrisy to force Elizabeth to make a heart-wrenching choice.
