Jane Hayes is seemingly normal young NewYorker, but she has a secret. Her obsession with Mr Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice' is ruining her life. No real man can compare.
When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an english resort catering to Austen-crazed women. Jane fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become realer than she ever could have imagined. Decked out in empire-waist gowns, stripped of her modern appliances, Jane throws harself into mastering Regency etiquette and flirts with gardeners and gentlemen - or maybe even, she suspects, with the actors who are playing them.
It's all a game, Jane knows. And yet the longer she stays, the more her insecurities seem to vanish. Is she about to kick the Austen obsession for good, or could all her dreams actually culminate in a Mr Darcy of her own?
With humour, charm, and perfect sympathy, award-winning Shannon Hale delivers a novel that will delight every reader who har ever dreamed of escaping into Austenland.
