I got so caught up in the actual story that I forgot to sit back and analyze how I felt about it. And I never did feel squeamish about the change because as you say Austen is timeless.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing about the books and for the giveaway opportunity.Sophia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07909417504496472472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588045351427975068.post-34346586961779427342013-09-16T08:09:37.533-04:002013-09-16T08:09:37.533-04:00Yes, I must agree with you there, Ceri!

I tend to switch back and forth between those same genres, depending on my mood. <br /><br />I like how Cynthia creates these passionate scenes but lets the curtains fade once the real action begins.

And your second sounds wonderful too!<br /><br />I love reading Regency novels, but I´m a chick-lit girl too, so I skip between Jane Austen and non-Jane Austen, chick lit and Regency. And the timelessness is the thing I like best. <br />I love reading Regency novel and imagining what this plot-line would be like transfered to the present, and the other way round. <br />kaewinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12229678438948241191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5588045351427975068.post-45847454110313815602013-09-13T17:54:19.815-04:002013-09-13T17:54:19.815-04:00Hey!
