Michelle, thank you for the kind encouragement! Our Charlotte now has a tiger by the tail, instead of a rather spineless fellow. 😊 Poor Mary indeed. The thing is, to enable Elizabeth to meet up with Mr. Darcy in Hunsford, I had to have someone in place for her to visit. You are very welcome for the audiobooks. I reach a much wider audience through UA-cam. Who knew? Have an enjoyable weekend!

Thanks for giving So This Is Love a try. These days, many of us learn to write by posting fan fiction on the Internet and getting feedback from readers. This was true for me. My new book, Pretty in Print, is also Jane Austen related, so when it comes out in audio you might want to skip it. However, it is you listeners here on UA-cam who have given me courage to step out and write Regency fiction. With that in mind, I have a Christmas novella in the works. it's looking to be a prequel to So This Is Love. I will add that Jane Austen fan fiction sells well, and this income is what finances my audiobooks. The production expense is considerable, so this is the way I make it work. Thanks again for listening.

You are very welcome, Laurie. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for the kind words, Mitzi. I had WAY too much fun with Mr. Thorpe -- and also with a more romantic Mr. Darcy. ❤

Janet, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. These two are certainly a pair. 😀

Thanks for giving it a try, @Horeslackey

Hi, Marta! Bless you for the kind encouragement.

@@LauraHileAudiobooks thank you

Aw, thanks deb. I also love the way it turned out.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening!🌻

Absolutely everything! And yet, as I began to work with these two, I was surprised at how well suited they are. Well, as long as there is enough money . . . 😄 Thanks for listening!

@@LauraHileAudiobooks Is there enough $$ in the world for Sir Walter? I’m gonna need part 2😂

@@tootsla1252, never enough money for Sir Walter. Nope, not ever.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening!

Ruth Redman did a wonderful job bringing this story to life. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Oh, I agree. Captain Wentworth would give no quarter to silly Lydia. Thanks for listening.

Oh, stories that offer a delightful escape are the best. I'm glad you wnjoyed this one, estrella.

Hahahaha, Shelley, you are so right. Money does make their world go round. I'm wondering our Lady Catherine she responded to his request for the garden statues of themselves. Sir Walter would need to use all his charm to pull that offl 😄

Patricia, thank you! This cover was tough to find, because I do not have deep enough pockets for a custom photo shoot. Our Jack has a beard, so the cover guy's will have to do. I am working on a Christmas prequel to So This Is Love (Henry and Emma Goodding's courtship). I'm excited to know that you'd like to see more of Jack Blunt. He'll be part of the story, pre-Charlotte. Darcy and Captain Blunt? Ooh, I like the idea. I agree, it would be great fun to see them interact. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Patricia.

@@LauraHileAudiobooks very excited for your new projects. Pleeeeease write Blunt snd Darcy 😊

@@LauraHileAudiobooks I listened to the audiobook again because it was so good and it came up in my suggestions 😊 I have to say I LOVED the letter to Mr. Collins! So brilliant and so Jack. Question. Why doesn’t Charlotte tell Elizabeth she found this amazing man and is getting married when she comes back home? I get things are different after her rejection of Mr. C but they’re still such good friends.

Patricia, thanks for the repeat listen. Unlike with Kindle Unlimited, UA-cam pays me for each and every time someone listens. And I learned from a poll that you all are wonderful re-listeners! That chapter about the letter to Collins? I wrote that simply to delight readers . . . and myself. As for the cooling between Elizabeth and Charlotte, it's sad, and you are not the first to wonder why I wrote it like that. I'll give Jane Austen's text below. Suffice it to say that, when I do write a follow-up sequel, several years will have gone by, and perhaps the friendship will be restored to what it once was. If I am sending Darcy and Blunt on an adventure together, it will have to be that way. Yay! Anyway, in Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth comes to realize that Jane's friendship and loyalty as a sister are precious. From Chapter 23: "Between Elizabeth and Charlotte there was a restraint which kept them mutually silent on the subject; and Elizabeth felt persuaded that no real confidence could ever subsist between them again. Her disappointment in Charlotte made her turn with fonder regard to her sister, of whose rectitude and delicacy she was sure her opinion could never be shaken. . ."

@@LauraHileAudiobooks ah interesting! Thanks for sharing 😊 I’m glad to hear YT pays you for listens. A Darcy and Blunt adventure you say? Yes, please! Eagerly anticipating it. Jack is similar to Richard so maybe he should be part of the adventure too! And they’re both military men. There you have a beginning 😗

Aw, thanks for the vote of confidence. I had no idea when I began working with these two that the story would turn out to be so much fun.

Marge, thank you for the re-listens. This is the highest compliment you can give to an audiobook. ❤ UA-cam pays an author for each time someone listens, so yay! I'm finishing a new novel this month, and I'm hoping for a September release. Audiobook production will take longer, but it will come. Thanks for the encouragement!
