Now I’m in trouble…

Uh, oh. Now I’m in trouble! You can throw rotten fruit, but no death threats, okay? 😉 I like writing happy books. But last summer I posted something on Facebook about how much I’d enjoyed writing variations where Mr. Darcy had a brother, and suddenly an evil plot bunny sprung full-grown into life right in …

Tempted Chapter Two… For Real This Time

Tempted is a story that has ever been the bridesmaid, but never the bride. I typed the first chapter in April of 2018, and all that time, I would tinker with it, then put it aside in favor of something shinier and… dare I say… easier. I’m not going to lie, this story has been …

Through Kitty’s Eyes: A New Proposal Scene

Bingley, who wanted to be alone with Jane, proposed their all walking out. It was agreed to. Mrs. Bennet was not in the habit of walking. Mary could never spare time, but the remaining five set off together. Bingley and Jane, however, soon allowed the others to outstrip them. They lagged behind, while Elizabeth, Kitty, …

A Quarantined Proposal by Nicole Clarkston

How are you all holding up? It’s a wild ride, that’s for sure. I thought you could do with a bit of laughter, so this is my very first crack at a modern Darcy and Elizabeth. (I said you could laugh, right?) You may even empathize with our dear couple’s struggles! Enjoy ! -NC “Lizzy! You’re …

The Rogue’s Widow Launch Day!

Well, the lady I’ve been silently dancing with this winter has shown her face–and isn’t it a lovely face? Janet Taylor has taken my breath away  yet again. I can’t get enough of this pretty lady. She has this wonderful mixture of mirth and sadness in her eyes and she looks exactly like I imagine …

Excerpt from my Work In Progress: Fortune and Felicity -2

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 …

Leap into Love: Excerpt from a New Novella by Nicole Clarkston

The month of love is almost over, but the scenes keep coming! I’m sharing a rather half-romantic scene. Well, it’s not actually romantic at all, except that it serves as a meet-cute for our dear couple and sets the stage for the beginning of their relationship in my newest book. Quirky? Yes. Irritating?  He can …

Leap into Love–An Excerpt by Nicole Clarkston

Happy Valentine’s Day! I have been an ostrich lately,  plugging away at various projects.  Some of them have to do with the fact that I spend an inordinate amount of time these days chasing teenagers around.  For example, I “get” to spend all of Valentine’s Day Weekend acting as a bouncer for over two hundred …

Falling for Mr. Thornton

I’ve been awfully quiet here lately, but if you’ve been following some of my Facebook posts, you’ll already know why. Today is the launch date of a brand new North and South anthology, Falling for Mr. Thornton! Both Melanie Stanford and I contributed, along with ten other fabulous authors. Some of them you already know …
