Everything a reader could desire: wit, passion, mystery, brilliant detective work, a love of rare books, a deep dive into literary history and, best of all, the restoration of reputation for a group of great women authors whose names should never have been forgotten Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love Publishing to coincide with the 250th anniversary of Jane Austens birth. It all started with a book that made me curious. When rare books dealer Rebecca Romney found an emerald clothbound edition of Evelina by Frances Burney, she was happy to discover that shed stumbled across a novel by one of Jane Austens favourite authors. Inspired by the connection between the two writers, she returned to Austens books with a new lens, picking out clues sprinkled throughout her works that pointed to the writers she had admired. Austen read William Shakespeare, John Milton, Daniel Defoe, and Samuel Richardson, all authors Rebecca had read. But Austen also read Frances Burney, Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Lennox, Hannah More, Charlotte Smith, Elizabeth Inchbald, Hester Piozzi, and Maria Edgeworth, all authors Romney hadnt. These female writers all sat proudly on Austens bookshelf, but have disappeared from ours. Romney became fascinated with these writers and wanted to answer three important questions: What were the stories behind the lives of these women? Why have they disappeared from our bookshelves? Who wrote them out of history? She had a mission, an obligation: she needed to collect Jane Austens bookshelf.

A DARK WARNING. A DANGEROUS SEDUCTION. The first in the Gothic romance series Shadows of Pemberley, a seductive modern-day reimagining of Jane Austen's most daring worlds, from USA Today bestselling author Zoe Blake. DELUXE EDITION--featuring beautiful sprayed edges! Aristocratic scandal. Murder. A legacy cursed by Northanger Abbey. Jane Austen's novels are not romances, they are a warning. Her poisoned pen exposed the arrogance and greed of British high society, even as she cursed them for it. Reborn as a modern story of obsession, control, and dangerous desire. To save her family from ruin, Julianna Whitcombe must marry the cold and enigmatic Lord Victor Tilney. But within the crumbling walls of Northanger Abbey, danger lurks at every turn. Her wedding gown is destroyed, poison appears in the food, and a near-fatal accident makes one thing clear: someone is determined to stop the wedding. As whispers of a deadly bridal curse spread through the abbey, Julianna begins to uncover Tilney's dark and twisted legacy. Yet the greatest mystery is Victor himself. Fiercely protective and dangerously possessive, he may be the only man who can save her-or the one she should fear most. Dark, seductive, and steeped in gothic suspense, Ashes of Austen will leave readers breathless as love battles the forces of vengeance and a deadly curse that may destroy them both.
