The letter had arrived two days ago and Sidney was still trying to comprehend its contents. The news contained within had both grieved him and vexed him in equal measure, so much so that he had struggled to compose a reply, for what response could he make to such a letter?
This fanfic follows the story of Sanditon but with a twist. I will write it episode by episode (but split into parts) so it will still largely follow the plot and include all the characters we know and love, but the twist will make things rather different (and hopefully interesting)... As always - a HEA is guaranteed!

Sanditon Melodies
Sidney's train to Sanditon is delayed, and when it finally arrives, he is annoyed to find his reserved seat occupied. Who is this girl that has stolen his seat? And what is it about her that he finds so intriguing? Can he open himself up to the possibility of love again? A modern AU loosely based on the Sanditon story set within the context of the music industry (fans of Nashville may appreciate this too). It will contain all our favourite Sanditon characters, but will primarily be focused on Sidlotte. I can also promise a HEA - it just may take a while to get there! This story includes some original songs which can be listened to on YouTube: "Out There" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee3D42_H2qY (Chapter 15) "Dreaming" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhkBkChNiwE (Chapter 25) "Contradictions" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbv-2GpK-Qo (Chapter 31) "Falling" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIsBTYfWo3U (Chapter 40)Complete
Sanditon Steamy Brew Cafe
Charlotte is the owner of a newly opened cafe and bakery. She takes pride in her shop and her baked goods. Sidney Parker comes in nearly everyday and finds something to criticize. They both make a lot of assumptions about each other but find discussing Pride and Prejudice at a Book Club tells them a lot about themselves and each other. Written in dedication to the Sanditon Survival Book Club Facebook Group's 1st anniversary. Notice the similarities of the "Sanditon Steamy Brew Cafe?" In the facebook group, I asked everyone who wanted to contribute to write a comment and discuss Pride and Prejudice. When we get to that part in the story, these are, for the most part, everyone's comments. I hope everyone who chose to contribute enjoys their little cameo in the story. This is a short little story and I DO NOT plan to continue it.Complete

Sanditon Season 2: Finding Their Way Back To Each Other
Sanditon season 1 ended horribly. With no guarantee of a second season, I have to give Charlotte and Sidney a happy ending. Hopefully we get a second season, but for now this is my interpretation of season 2. There will be an HEA but it's going to take some time to get there. Charlotte and Alison are invited back to Sanditon to be Lady Denham's companions. When they arrive, Lady Denham quickly puts Charlotte in charge of the rebuild in Sanditon. What Charlotte wasn't expecting was Sidney Parker to show up at every turn. Between Lady Denham, Lady Susan, Georgiana, Mr. Crowe, Lord Babington, and a feisty little sister all working together, they will find their way back to each other. ~~Story also posted on fanfiction.net and AO3~~ New AU/Modern Sanditon Fanfic stories posted on AO3 under earthprincess4Complete

Hold My Hand
Regency era, alternative story about Charlotte Heywood and Sidney Parker. Sidney's mother is pushing him to marry and marry well to save the family from ruin. His pursuit is Mrs. Campion, a wealthy widow with a horrible personality. On the verge of asking her to marry him, he goes on a hunting trip to clear his head. What happens on this hunting trip changes his path in life forever. Sidney POV When I first had the idea for this story, I pictured a bear attacking Sidney. But doing research I found that bears are not common wild animals in England. I'm American and live in a state where bears are common. In doing research, I found that in the regency era there were wild cats that were referred to as phantom cats, panthers, jaguars, or leopards. Although, some accounts claim there is no such thing and stories were exaggerated. Anyway, for story purposes, this phantom cat exists. I know it may not sound realistic, but as I said before, there were stories about these wild cats in some of my research. I also came across stories of the aristocratic and higher class bringing these exotic animals to England to show off and look grander to others. It reminded me of someone purchasing a dog as a puppy, thinking it'll be great. Then months later realizing these cute puppies grow up and destroy your home and chew everything up. I pictured a rich woman insisting she have one of these pure black cats on one of her many voyages to far off lands and her rich husband buying her the exotic animal. Then as this cat grew and suddenly the realization that it's a wild animal and could potentially kill someone, these high society people may just decide to let the animal go in the woods to fend for himself. Now this cat is alone in a land he doesn't belong and trying to survive, perhaps resenting man for the cruel way he was treated. Now I feel sorry for the panther. Anyway, that's the backstory on the panther and why it may be in a place it's not supposed to be.Complete
Heart Of Stone
What if Sidney and Charlotte were a little closer in age? What if they met as teenagers? What if instead of Eliza, Sidney lost Charlotte as a young man, only to find her again years later? Oneshot written for the Sanditon Valentine's Day Challenge. The Valentine's Day theme is subtle and not necessarily the main focus. Obviously, Sidlotte is the focus. When I decided to take on another challenge, I went searching for information about what Valentine's Day looked like during the Regency Era. Unfortunately, everything I came across said there was very little known about the customs of the time. Sending mass produced cards didn't become popular until the Victorian Era. All I could come up with was that heartfelt letters were passed to a sweetheart. I kept digging and came across a little something that I found quite interesting. I do not know the validity in this custom, but I still thought it might make an interesting theme for a story. I hope you all enjoy it.Complete
