Sheffield
Miss Benning is very rich but very unconventional and so is shunned by London society. Mr. Donal is about to lose his family's home to an Uncle he doesn't know. Set in early 1800s England it is a story of love, loss, regret and redemption. My nod to Jane Austen.Complete
Pride and Prejudice
"Pride and Prejudice is an 1813 romantic novel of manners written by Jane Austen. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book, who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and eventually comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. A classic piece filled with comedy, its humour lies in its honest depiction of manners, education, marriage and money during the Regency era in Great Britain. Mr Bennet of Longbourn estate has five daughters, but because his property is entailed it can only be passed from male heir to male heir. Consequently, Mr Bennet's family will be destitute upon his death. Because his wife also lacks an inheritance, it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well to support the others upon his death, which is a motivation that drives the plot. Jane Austen's opening line--"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife"-is a sentence filled with irony and sets the tone for the book. The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love, not simply for economic gain or social prestige, despite the communal pressure to make a good (i.e., wealthy) match." -Wikipedia More readable version of "Pride and Prejudice" from the Gutenberg library.Complete
The Perks Of Falling For Your Bestfriend✔
"In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." -Pride and Prejudice. -Jane Austen. Allison Waters is a girl as simple as they come, atleast that's what she believed. And to be honest she did enjoy a simple life for the past two years. All she wanted to pass her senior year in peace and be happy in life. What she wasn't expecting was to be back in town with a certain Greek God of a Devil acting more annoying than ever... Calling him tall dark and handsome would be the understatement of the century. He is the arrogant quarterback and one of the most popular guys in shcool. He is as I mention previously the reincarnation of the devil in his actions and a Greek God in the looks department, with startling blue eyes, a sinful body and gorgeous hair, who may at different times define the words Cocky and Adorable. Quite a contrast isn't it? Well that's who he is, or for that matter how we all are... a bit of both. Ashton Fobes is Alli's bestfriend, well Ex-Bestfriend, he is also her arch nemisis, her sworn enemy, but he is also the only one who can make her push her limits and challenge her in ways she never thought possible. Soon they were playing with Cupid's arrows trying to set up the unlikeliest couple imaginable, but what they seemed to have forgotten was Fate's wierd sense of humor and so it turned out while they were playing with Cupid's Arrows, he was aiming them at these two instead. Ps: I have now unpublished most of the chapters. Highest Ranking: 30, 35, 50 in teen fiction. 32, 66 in ChickLit. 46, 47, 78 in humor.Complete
Charming Miss Atherton
"Love for me was like falling off a horse. I fell, got bruised, and lost my will to hop back into the saddle." -Bridget Atherton in a letter to Lady Helen explaining her disinterest in finding herself a husband in height of London's season, 1811. There are four things that headstrong Bridget Atherton knows with absolute certainty: First, being in love can blind a person from seeing things for what they truly are. Second, this is an especially dangerous habit when one is in the company of agreeable gentlemen. Third, the humiliation that follows her failed courtship during Bridget's first year in high society jades her from actively seeking out a husband. And finally, her life became infinitely less complicated once she decided to remain single. But when a chance encounter throws her into the arms of a handsome stranger, Bridget discovers that what she knew for certain is about to change. Does she decide to play it safe or venture to risk it all in the name of love?Complete
Delightfully Darcy

Paparazzi follow her everywhere hoping for the Austen-style love story of the century, everyone back home thinks she's engaged, and to make matters worse, she doesn't have a date to her mum's annual Christmas party. So when a disastrous interview with national features reporter Elias Black threatens to destroy Fritz's career, she does the only thing she can think of to save her reputation: date him. Or at least pretend to. But as fake feelings mix with real ones, their chemistry becomes undeniably, delightfully Darcy.Complete
