" You.... You did nothing. Just know that you're the best thing that has ever happened to me. We may be miles apart but know that I've got you. For as long as I'm alive, you've got that person that would fight anything that will harm you. I wish you a happy married life. God!!! This sounds like a farewell message. I guess it's one." She had started sobbing. This was a man she genuinely love. That love that makes you comfortable with being just around them. The kind of people you love selflessly and wholeheartedly.

When Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy agrees to accompany his friend Charles Bingley to his new estate in Hertfordshire, neither man could have anticipated how it would affect their lives, particularly in the form of the lovely Jane and Elizabeth Bennet! But when pride, prejudice, and a meddlesome Caroline Bingley succeed in separating the two couples, Mr. Darcy's cousin, Lady Anne DeBourgh, decides to take matters into her own hands. With help from Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam, Georgiana Darcy, and the newly introduced Mr. Dean Montgomery, will she succeed in bringing a happily ever after to those that she loves? This story is not for the Jane Austen purist, for although it has all of the original characters that we have come to love over the years, and it does include the main plot and story lines, it is called a variation for a reason, and will more often than not stray on some points and characteristics of the characters as it is from my own vision. Nonetheless it is strictly in old English, and will remain completely within the bounds of propriety!

This is the original, unedited version of Light as a Feather, Book #1. This book was the inspiration for the Hulu Original Series. The revised version is now available in bookstores throughout the USA & Canada from Simon Pulse. McKenna Brady thinks her junior year of high school is going to be the best ever when she's welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High School led by blonde, gorgeous Olivia Richmond. Prior to junior year, McKenna was known in her small town as the girl whose twin sister died in a tragic house fire, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of redefining her identity. She has a date to the Homecoming dance with Olivia's handsome older brother, and a good chance of being elected to student council. For the first time since McKenna's parents divorced, things are looking up. But everything changes the night of Olivia's Sweet Sixteen sleepover birthday party. Violet, the shy, mysterious new girl in town, suggests that the girls play a scary game called Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board, during which Violet makes up elaborate stories about the future ways in which beautiful Olivia, brassy Candace, and athletic Mischa will die. The game unsettles McKenna because she's already escaped death once in her life, but she doesn't want to ruin her friends' fun. It's only a game, she reminds herself.
