Sorry to keep you waiting so long for this new chapter of The Price of Pride. Real life got a little too exciting, but I’m back to work now. I’m sorry to confess that the release date is being pushed back, too, to either mid-December or early January. I hope you enjoy this chapter. To …
And now it starts to get exciting! Here’s the third excerpt from The Price of Pride, where we see the fallout of Wickham’s visit. Thanks for all your comments – they keep me inspired! If you’ve missed the earlier sections, check them out here: Prologue, Chapter 1, Chapter 2. ~~~ The red-haired chambermaid came to …

I’m hard at work on my new book, and you’ll be hearing more about that soon, but in the meantime, I have some news about two of my favorite older books. Mr. Darcy’s Noble Connections and The Darcys of Derbyshire have new covers! I was never completely happy with the old ones which I designed …
Austen by the Fireside is this month’s theme, and it’s such a cosy one! Perfect for January. This is the time for cosiness, for wrapping up warm and curling up with a good book – or with several. It would be ever so nice if we could curl up before an open fire, but these …
