7 posts | 5 read | 17 to read
When a modern woman goes back to Jane Austen's time, she needs to know Everything! Eleanor agrees to travel back in time to prevent a deadly duel, but she doesn't know how to behave, what to say, and most importantly How to tell a villain from a rake The captivating, infuriating, and mysterious Lord Shermont is a renowned rake and womanizerbut is he also a dangerous cutthroat and spy? Eleanor has to get up close and personal to find out Otherwise, she could fall into a most shocking scandal Thankfully, Miss Jane Austen herself arrives on the scene, with sage guidance and a twinkle in her eye, to help Eleanor navigate countryhouse society and the dangerous terrain of her own heart From the author of Hundreds of Years to Reform a Rake, a new time travel romance featuring a modern day career woman swept back in time to Regency England, where she thwarts a Napoleonic spy, chats with Jane Austen, and falls in love with a notorious rake. PRAISE FOR LAURIE BROWN: "Highly original. If you're in the market for a different kind of historical romance, or you enjoy stories filled with period detail, Hundreds of Years to Reform a Rake is a solid bet." wordcandybooks.blogspot.com "Brown's ending was clever and I never suspected Josie would choose the path she takes. I would recommend Hundreds of Years to Reform a Rake to anyone who enjoys paranormals, and even Regency fans who don't usually read them. Brown did an excellent job of combining the two genres." aladysdiversions.blogspot.com "A very enjoyable read with Josie a feisty and independent character, and Deverell the ghost and Deverell the man both also very appealing." curledup.com "Humor, mystery, ghosts, history, and pure fun." blogcritics.org "A fresh tale that is as charming as it is hot!" zeekspage.blogspot.com "You'll be transported to another time and won't want to return until the very last page is digested." fantasybookspot.com

The real Jane Austen would have loved this book! Maddy writes a “Dear Jane” column until she is fired. At the same time she inherits an old house from Nigel, her dad‘s cousin whom she‘s never met. The “catch” is she must live there for a year (in the English countryside). She runs into Cameron, a bestselling author she had an on-air disagreement with…and the rest is history! Fun and frivolous, it‘s a great read!

Although I am still working through several titles, I have decided that I need a designated bedtime read, which needs to be one of my personal books, just in case I must return the library borrows before it‘s finished. I have owned this book for quite some time, and I thought now would be a good time to read it. Also, it is something jolly to read before bed.

Stolen from @Laalaleighh @Kalalalatja #bookishwouldyourather
1) Paperbacks - more book space!
2) New reads - I need to diversify my reading (this is why Litsy is brilliant for me)
3) A mix - buy my favourite genres but I'd try the library first for new genres
4) Same cover!
5) Game of Thrones (this may be due to Aidan Gillen 😂❤️)
6) A mix - but all above 100 pages as 500+ can be too long and -100 is too short.

Kalalalatja I love that you have posted this under "What would Jane Austen do" ?? 8y

This was a fun, fluffy, get-away romp of a romance, with some mystery, time-travel, and Austen homage thrown in. It was just what I needed to clear my head and have some fun. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Laura317 You had me at Jane Austen and time travel. 8y

There are days when I think Jane Austen would tell you to grab a glass of iced tea and read something that makes your heart race. Let's see if this one does the trick.
