Synopsis

Sweet, Austen-inspired treats, perfect with a cup of tea.
 
Full of hope and ripe with possibility, beginnings and
new beginnings refresh the spirit with optimism and
anticipation.
 
Four Days in April.
 
Two letters. Four Days. Everything changes.
 
After offering a most disastrous proposal of marriage
and receiving a rebuke he will never forget, Fitzwilliam
Darcy writes Elizabeth Bennet an equally memorable
letter.
 
What if she answers it with one of her own?
 
Last Dance
 To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling
in love. Mary was not. Nor was she fond of dresses or
balls or parties, or any of the things most girls her age
adored.

With three sisters married, Aunt Philips insists she must
be next. But is dancing essential to falling in love?
 
Not Romantic
 Once burned is twice shy. Charlotte has no place for
romantic notions or sentimentality. All she asks is a
comfortable home and a man who is respectable and
steady.
 
But the only man she knows who fits that description
pines for her best friend. Must she betray her friendship
to pursue everything she has ever hoped for
 
Sweet Ginger
 
Harriet Smith has abandoned all hope of a home and
family of her own and plans a future teaching for Mrs.
Goddard.
 
Things change with the arrival Rachel and Margaret
Martin whose grumpy old bear of a brother might just
have a taste for ginger.
 
  From the award winning author of Given Good
Principles, Remember the Past and Mistaking Her
Character, Sweet Tea short stories offer the perfect bite
to transport readers back to the Regency era for the first
days of new love.
