A whole lot of interesting love plots there. It sounds like it'd be a great read.

Good morning

Self-deception or wishful thinking can be a really cruel wake-up call once you grasp the fact that you have been lying to yourself. It is in this moment that you are either humbled or you get the courage to do something about it.

I suppose young ladies in Jane's time, the gentry, were always being matched with

suitable Gentlemen to enable their lifestyle to continue. Of course the gentlemen

were also on the lookout to improve their own status.   Unless of course that little

charmer  Cupid upset the Apple cart. I expect the book was a gem.
