Beetiful designed the book cover for Taming Miss Teel by Jane Grix.
Love is a battlefield.
Margaret Teel is a shrew and Sir Peter Hocking hopes he is the man who can tame her. Margaret’s father insists that his oldest daughter marry before the younger daughter, and Sir Peter wants her dowry. But just as in Shakespeare’s famous play, Taming of the Shrew, not everything is as it seems.
Taming Miss Teel is a Traditional Regency Romance, a variation of Taming of the Shrew.
I specialize in writing stories for readers who want a quick romantic getaway with Mr. Darcy.
I've been half in love with Mr. Darcy since I was twelve, although I'll admit, the first time I read Pride and Prejudice, I was totally taken in by Wickham. I was stunned when Mr. Darcy proposed (I guess I was reading too quickly to catch all the hints), and even more stunned when Wickham turned out to be a jerk. But by the end of the book I was completely smitten by Darcy. I am still smitten.
The best part about writing Jane Austen Variations is that I can relive those moments of discovery and watch Elizabeth fall in love with Darcy one more time.
All my books and short stories are standalone stories, each with a slightly different Darcy and Elizabeth. Some stories of my stories are shorter (novellas) and some are longer because they are more complex - similar to the difference between a television episode and a movie. I believe both can be satisfying romances.
