Scenes and Soirees

Some time ago, when Enticing Miss Darcy was just being published, I created a set of “scrapbook” pages for a post I did about it at Austen Authors. I came across those pages in my computer files and thought I’d share them here today. Sorry, there is no excerpt, but I think each page will give you a good bit of information about the story.

This book, as well as all my other Dash of Darcy and Companion books are on sale this month because next month, they are going to become exclusive to the Kindle store so they can be enrolled in Kindle Unlimited. (Links to the series on several stores and info about prices can be found on my Current Book Promotions page by clicking here.)

At the end of Enticing Miss Darcy, you will find a short story sequel included in the book. 🙂

*whispers* The hero of the story is a Fitzwilliam brother. The third and youngest.

And a bonus image

Jack is one of the original characters I have created, so I’m going to include his “Meet the Main Character” card here for you to get to know a little about him. 🙂 (Oh, and in case you are wondering, Alistair is the fellow who married Anne in Becoming Entangled and another original character. 🙂 )

Remember this book and all the other Dash of Darcy and Companion books are on sale now and moving to Kindle Unlimited in April. I really do hope you’ll take a chance on this book and meet Jack.


The August 2022 Saturday Broadsheet

The Saturday Broadsheet, with all my writing life updates, is now available at the link at the bottom of this short post.

In this issue of the Broadsheet you will find:

  • Info about what is posting on my blog. (As if you didn’t know, right? LOL)
  • An update on my current writing project.
  • Info about several books that are on sale.
  • And in the story connections section, you will find some illustrations of characters in and a few lines from a Shakespearean play that appears in one of my books.

Have a great weekend!

I hope you have time to read a book.

I’ll be back on Wednesday (hopefully) with a Story Connection, and then again, on Thursday with a new chapter of His Inconvenient Choice.


Intro to Van Eyck (Sarah Jeffrey)

We are starting a new month of Mondays and a new theme for these posts. This month I will be sharing music that could have been played by Georgiana, and I’ll be pairing every song selection with a quote from some book in which Georgiana has either been the heroine or has been more than just a walk on.

Today, the video is different than any I have shared before. While this video contains music, it is really a music lesson. I thought it might be fun to learn about a composer from well before Georgiana’s time period. If you choose to listen to the video, you can do as I did pretend you are Georgiana sitting under the tutelage of a music master that Darcy has hired for her. 😉 (We know she played the piano, but she might have played more instruments than that. I can see a recorder showing up in some story of mine in the future. 🙂 )

The following excerpt is from Enticing Miss Darcy in which Georgiana is nervously entering her first season.



While most of the books in my Dash of Darcy and Companions collection of Pride and Prejudice inspired stories have one companion story, Unravelling Mr. Darcy has two companions. Enticing Miss Darcy is the second companion story. (Becoming Entangled is the first companion story.)

Georgiana is the heroine in this story, and Jack Ralston (a character I created) is the hero who has found himself relegated to the position of good friend. However, with a little help from various friends and relations, Jack might be able to move out of the friend zone, and Georgiana just might learn to trust her heart.

Writing News

Hey, how has your week been? Kind of crazy? Mine was pretty routine except I had to shift my errand day to Thursday since we are supposed to be getting a heavy dose of rain starting later today (Friday) into tomorrow. I’m not fond of running errands in the rain. 🙂 I also ended up taking a trip to the doctor on Thursday to get some antibiotics and to refill a prescription that is one of those take it daily things. 

Those errands and all took all day, so I am hoping to write a chapter of Protecting Miss Darcy this evening or tomorrow. Here’s the list of stories and the progress made along with a small snippet from each:
