As promised, here is the third episode of the new book I’m working on, Fortune & Felicity. If you haven’t read the first two episodes, you can catch up with the Prologue here, and Chapter 1 here. Chapter 2 Elizabeth winced with pain as she stepped on a tin soldier left in the hallway by …
I already did one post on this month’s theme, but I just couldn’t let LEAP into LOVE slip by without tying it to my novel LEAP of HOPE. The two were practically made for each other. The colors even match! Besides, February 29th is kind of a bonus day, so I figured it deserved a bonus …
Today should be the last day of February, but it isn’t, so I still have a chance to Leap into Love. For today’s romantic moment, I’ve decided to share one of my early Pride & Prejudice sequels, The Darcy Cousins. Of course, I have to put up a *spoiler alert. I do love this scene, …
Here’s the first chapter from my Pride & Prejudice variation Fortune & Felicity. It’s my second post, so if you haven’t read it yet, I would recommend reading the Prologue first. As you can see from the date, the actual story starts seven years after Darcy’s disastrous proposal at Hunsford. I will leave you to …
Choosing a romantic scene to share was not an easy choice to make. I have my favorites, of course, but I didn’t want to drop spoilers or confuse people out of context. Ultimately, I decided to share this scene from Green Card. It was one of the first scenes I wrote for this story and …
It’s been a while, but I’m back again, ready to share my current WIP, Fortune and Felicity. For some reason, this novel took longer to write. Every time I thought I knew where it was going, it would take me in a different direction, which involved endless rewrites of earlier chapters. I’m done with the draft, though, so hopefully, there aren’t going to be any more surprises!
Fortune and Felicity is a Pride & Prejudice what-if variation, and it picks up just after Darcy’s disasterous proposal to Elizabeth at Hunsford. I’ll be posting chapters here on Jane Austen Variations while I work on edits. I’m looking to publish sometime towards the end of March, so keep checking the blog for updates.
So here it is. Enjoy!
Mr. Darcy spent the night battling his demons, urging them to come under his control.
What better way to celebrate this month of love (especially one with an added Leap Day!) than to have a chance to post a story excerpt for you all & to give away a little something, too! 😛 In honor of the release of the brand new “Emma” movie (finally coming to theaters this Friday …
With Valentine’s Day, love is in the air. And it’s a Leap Year besides! So we’re celebrating all this month with romantic excerpts and special giveaways! Today it’s my turn, and I have a romantic ‘Darcy and Elizabeth’ chapter from The Darcys of Pemberley, my first (and still most popular) novel. Even if you’ve read …
In my newest novel, The Bride of Northanger, the hero and heroine, Henry Tilney and Catherine Morland respectively, are a romantic pair who have fought against many obstacles (mostly in the shape of his ogre-like father, General Tilney) on their path to love. This sequel to Northanger Abbey has plenty of Gothic thrills and mysteries, but …
St Valentine’s Day is coming, love is in the air and, as luck will have it, it’s a leap year. So what better way to celebrate our favourite couple and their Leap into Love than with romantic excerpts from our books and gifts for our readers? (Such a great idea, Jennifer!!) I think my readers …
