I hope you get to read Miss Bingley's letter in this book soon! <br /><br />Joana, I very dearly hope that you never have a plot bunny that involves Darcy marrying Miss Bingley! I have to say, I think she was a bit ambitious in setting her sights on him, since he is of good family and NOT broke. I have always imagined her marrying a minor title who has the need of her dowry.Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-38720093695656022242016-06-14T23:10:48.114+01:002016-06-14T23:10:48.114+01:00Hi Ginna!

I agree with you too, that reading reviews of Joana's books makes you want to go back and re-read them. When I opened up my review posts of Joana's previous books in order to link to them I was sorely tempted to pick them up to become reacquainted with the characters!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-1367592680622980692016-06-14T15:40:11.163+01:002016-06-14T15:40:11.163+01:00Lovely review, Ceri!

Poor Miss Bingley, she never gets what she wants (thank goodness ;) ). Now that would be a story full of unbearable angst, if Darcy were to discover Elizabeth after giving in and marrying Miss Bingley.

I'm over the moon that you liked Miss D's Companion and if we're talking Darcy ardently in love and knowing it, fingers crossed you'll like my next book too. He IS madly in love and well he knows it, and before long Elizabeth gets to discover that too. But you know me better than to imagine this means plain sailing ;) Thanks again for your fabulous support and all the best!Joana Starneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150637735779894393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-21823920797290719842016-06-13T12:43:58.956+01:002016-06-13T12:43:58.956+01:00Thanks ever so much for the wonderful comment, Bet...Thanks ever so much for the wonderful comment, Betty, your kind words mean so much to me!!Joana Starneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150637735779894393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-14677957896868061742016-06-13T12:43:02.743+01:002016-06-13T12:43:02.743+01:00I wholeheartedly agree, it's so wonderful to f...I wholeheartedly agree, it's so wonderful to find readers with similar taste!
