Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly @vanessakellyauthor @kensingtonbooks @Austenprose  @sophiarose1816

When Jane Austen’s delightful Matchmaker stumbles on a body, Emma finds a new interest to devote her time.  Vanessa Kelly has written some engaging historical romantic suspenses, but I was over the top thrilled when she took up her pen to write a murder mystery and sequel set in the world of Jane Austen’s Emma.

Only the Cloney is the first book in Sunrise Cantina,  a spin off series set in the Risdaverse on Risda III, a sanctuary planet for some of the humans that have been abducted in saved over the years.  While this is a new series, I think to really have a good foundation you will need […]

Darcy’s Struggle by Kelly Dean Jolley #KellyDeanJolley @MerytonPress #KindleUnlimited @sophiarose1816

When Darcy encounters ‘The One’ – the only woman for him, this should have been a moment of triumph, but instead, starts a thought-provoking emotional journey of the heart to win a woman’s love.  I’ve read two enjoyable mystery romps from Kelly Dean Jolley and I was aware that he wrote a few Jane Austen-related […]
