Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. They were destined to be together for you see... their names were Jane and Austen. And to top it all off they both worked at the North Abbey. But sad as it is Austen was very logical and wanted out of the North Abbey leaving Jane behind with a broken heart. Jane, ever the romantic, moved on with life taking the job to plan her best friends wedding. Her best friend is Miss Taylor Missy Elizabeth Weston who is marrying Chuck Frank Bigley. Can you see where this story is going? When Willard Dancey shows up at the North Abbey as a wedding guest Jane just knows that romance in the books is much better than the romance of today. Working with bridesmaids Bertie, Bella Thorne, and Mary Musswood proves to be a challenge to say the least. Now add in the other wedding guests: Captain Redd Wortham, Harry Crawley, Eddy and Elly MaFarey, and BeBurgy... And the workers at the North Abbey: Junie Bennet Fairchild, Ann-Marie Dashner, Freddy Tiney, and Colin Minster... And you have the makings of a truly FANTASTIC TWIST on every book Jane Austen ever wrote. So what happens when Austen suddenly shows up as another wedding guest? LOVED. LOVED. LOVED. THIS. BOOK! I laughed and sighed and fell in love with the characters! A MUST-READ for every girl who believes in love and happy endings! no reviews | add a review
Meet Jane and Austen. First there's Jane--an impractical, starry-eyed wedding planner; if love can't match what she's read in a book, she doesn't want it. And then there's Austen--a pragmatic, logical-to-a-fault financial consultant; even if he were interested in someone, he wouldn't know. The two have one thing in common: they can't leave each other alone. Jane believes that if Austen could just experience a fairy tale romance, he would secretly love it. And Austen's pretty sure that if one of Jane's beloved heroes escaped from the pages of her dog-eared novels, she'd run and hide. No library descriptions found. |

On the down side, some of the wedding events seemed out of order or stretched out (too many days) to me, but maybe that's the way it's done now. I also think the main character, Jane, would have been too busy in her role as wedding planner/event planner at the resort hotel to take as much time as she did away from work without adding an assistant. Also, Jane was occasionally clueless, but that happens to the best of us.
