Particular Intentions (the first book in this series) tells us that Georgiana’s Ramsgate encounter was much more serious than in Canon and she was actually raped by Wickham in his attempt to convince her to elope.

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet, lovely and wonderful story inspired by L. L. Diamond inspired by author Jane Austen’s classic Pride and Prejudice

What a treat!

This two book series is well written and structured dealing with a difficult topic in a sensitive and contextually appropriate fashion. One of the delights of this series is the original characters who are delightfully portrayed.
