Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict

Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict
by Laurie Viera Rigler

Twenty-first century Jane Austen addict Courtney Stone, broken-hearted due to a cheating fiance, suddenly and inexplicably finds herself inhabiting the body of young Englishwoman Jane Mansfield (no, the joke is not lost on Courtney) in the early 19th century. Courtney at first fights against her situation but then comes to realize that she is calmly becoming this other woman while still wishing to find a way back to her own world. This book is a unique combination of historical fiction, comedy, romance, and the bending of space and time as both young women struggle toward their individual destinies.
