[Sweet Tea Stories 02] • Snowbound at Hartfield

"Grace has quickly become one of my favorite authors of Austen-inspired fiction. Her love of Austen's characters and the Regency era shine through in all of her novels." Diary of an Eccentric Snowbound at Hartfield Sweet, Austen-inspired treats, perfect with a cup of tea. Full of hope and ripe with possibility, sweet tea tales refresh the heart with optimism and anticipation. Snowbound at Hartfield Colonel Fitzwilliam should have been happy facing retirement. No more Napoleon, no more tromping the Continent, and his distant cousin had unexpectedly left him an estate. What was more, two of his favorite people, Darcy and Elizabeth, were travelling with him to visit his new home. But the colonel wasn't happy, not when he was forced to watch Darcy exchanging enamored glances with his wife. No, he wanted to pitch his cousin out the window. It didn't help when Darcy kept lecturing him on the joys of wedded life- as if women like Elizabeth Darcy grew on every tree. Then the snow started. Now they were stranded at the home of George and Emma Knightley, another intolerable, blissfully wedded couple who wanted nothing more than to see his bachelor days come to an end. Thank heavens they never thought of matching him with the proud spinster who had also been caught in the storm. That would have been utterly intolerable. Or would it? 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.
