Publisher's summary
This novella of about 44,000 words is about the fulfillment of Elizabeth’s Bennet’s childhood wish to be Mrs. Darcy.
Excerpt: The young couple joined hands as they stood together in the sun-filled meadow of the sprawling estate of Pemberley. “Dearly beloved,” the ceremony began, “we have gathered here to witness the joining of this couple in holy matrimony.” The speaker did his best to remember the words of the marriage service without the benefit of his prayer book. He forged on. “If anyone knows of any reason these two should not be wed, let him speak now or forever hold his peace.”
With no other actual witnesses, after a silence of less than a minute, twelve-year-old Fitzwilliam Darcy continued. “Do you, Seth Tobias Henry Darcy, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?”
The towheaded seven-year-old groom grinned at his bride and replied resolutely, “I do.”
“And do you, Elizabeth Rose Bennet, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?”
“I do,” the tiny brunette repeated with a slight giggle that caused her daisy chain headdress to wobble atop her dark curls.
“Then, I now pronounce you husband and wife. What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.”
The groom pulled his five-year-old bride closer to plant an awkward kiss on her rosy cheek.

Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint.

Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Excerpt: “Well, are you coming in?” After a pause, the gatekeeper, presumably St. Peter, repeated more slowly as if he was speaking to slow-witted children, “So are you two coming in or staying out there?” Darcy spoke first, “I don’t think I’m finished yet.
