Beschreibung

Love, laughter, and lots of matchmaking mishaps. Sophie Johnson's life seems picture-perfect with her dream job at The Jane Austen Dating Agency and a relationship with the irresistible Darcy Drummond. But all is not as it seems. Darcy's awful mother is wrecking havoc, the agency is struggling, and then there's the amusing and disturbingly cute Henry Baxter who is making it hard for Sophie to focus. As the pressure mounts and her love life falters, Sophie must ask herself: Can she juggle it all and find her own happy ever after? Or is business and romance an impossible combination? A modern-day matchmaker's misadventure, this second novel in Woodifield's charming series is perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan, Sophie Kinsella and, of course, Jane Austen. Praise for "The Jane Austen Dating Agency": ´There were some wonderful surprises... Those, particularly Janeites, who enjoy light women's fiction blended with romantic comedy would be the target group for this one.´ - Austenprose ´The Jane Austen Dating Agency may resemble the stories of both Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility at times but Fiona Woodifield has done a remarkable job of twisting these well-known plots into a very modern love story all of her own.´ - Travelling Book Junkie

Autor

As a young child, Fiona spent hours reading, curling up with a book was one of her favourite past times. Her current volume would accompany her everywhere, to school, on daytrips, holidays and visits. The idea of providing an imaginary world in which others can escape is a wonderful one and this became Fiona’s dream, to become a published author. From an early age, Fiona’s parents encouraged her writing – commencing when they gave her a simple red lined exercise book. Soon she had a collection of notebooks, small, large, plain, The Snowman, Brambly Hedge, they all became full of her jottings. Years later, Fiona studied for a Combined Arts Degree at Durham, then a Masters in English – writing her thesis on Jane Austen and Masculinity. In total contrast she went to work for a top fashion magazine in London, then various marketing posts. Four lovely daughters later, during which time she has graduated from laughing at Mrs Bennet to sympathising with her, she continued to scribble away, only the notebooks are somewhat bigger. Fiona has written for national magazines on diverse subjects from Jane Austen to caravanning! One morning the idea came to her for ‘The Jane Austen Dating Agency’ and this was the first book she just had to write. Fiona obviously loves writing, especially romantic comedy, meeting with friends and family, dancing, walks by the sea and escaping into a book whilst consuming a worrying amount of chocolate.
