This book is related by character to The Six-Month Marriage (the heroes in both books are friends) but both books are standalone stories. Once childhood friends, Jack and Annabelle are now strangers after she rejected his proposal. When they meet again, Jack begins to suspect that Annabelle's reasons for refusing him were not as straightforward as they seemed. Can they make up for the mistakes of the past and admit their love, as circumstances take them from the glamour of London to the danger of Brussels, which is preparing for the Battle of Waterloo?
Author
Amanda Grange was born in Yorkshire and spent her teenage years reading Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer whilst also finding time to study music at Nottingham University. She has had twenty-five novels published including six Jane Austen retellings, which look at events from the heroes' points of view. She has also had two books published under different names: Murder at Whitegates Manor (as Eleanor Tyler; a Regency cosy crime murder mystery) and The Rake (as Amy Watson; a very light and frothy Regency romance). Woman said of Mr Darcy's Diary: "Lots of fun, this is the tale behind the alpha male," whilst The Washington Post called Mr Knightley's Diary "affectionate". The Historical Novels Review made Captain Wentworth's Diary an Editors' Choice, remarking, "Amanda Grange has hit upon a winning formula." Austenblog declared that Colonel Brandon's Diary was "the best book yet in her series of heroes' diaries." Amanda Grange now lives in Cheshire. Her profile photo was taken at the Jane Austen House Museum, Chawton. The museum is well worth a visit!
