It is a truth universally acknowledged, that Mr. Darcy does not exist.

Many a young woman has spent years looking for her perfect Mr. Darcy, but Kate Thomas knows better. As a 29-year-old recently widowed southerner, she sets off to find herself on the other side of the ocean in the very country where Mr. Darcy's life was penned. Looking only to escape reminders of her heartache, Kate journeys to places she never thought she'd go -- finding faith, love, and family.

This is not a P & P retelling but the story of a woman's journey to discover what real love is.

An ocean ... it's vast and powerful. The water that fills it can bring death, or offer life. Kate Thomas moves her life across an ocean to conquer the hold of her past and find new life for her future.

Not Quite Mr.Darcy is women's fiction with clean romance (kisses only). It tackles forgiving the seemingly unforgivable and the disillusionment many a woman has faced upon realizing that the perfect husband they've been raised to look for doesn't exist. Kate, a recent widow, leaves her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee. Seeking distance from her past she takes a job in Kingsdown, England, working with a dementia patient in a cottage overlooking the English Channel. What she finds there is much more than she anticipated. Kate learns to find joy even in the hardest circumstances.

One word to describe the story: beautiful!""The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that."***Humanity is one secret society away from extinction.The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe.If they make it through the Academy.Hi, I'm Lyric.

In this novel, Emma Travet describe these feelings and those days. Travet is a typical surname from Piedmont, an Italian north-west region where she is from.Emma has nothing in common with Emma Thompson and that's why.She is twenty-six years old and she lives in Italy, in a small town where one of the first European gay pub was opened. Emma is a freelance journalist and she is exploited by her boss, Mr Vintage (so called not because he is cool, but because his old unfashionable clothes stinks of mothballs, just like his thoughts...).Waking up and working every day (Saturdays included) in a narrow local editorial surrounded by closed-minded persons is not the best, Emma thinks it will be much better to write for the magazine Vanity Fair! Thus, she sends out with persistence her curriculum vitae to the editorial office every week, before or later somebody will reply her!In the meantime, she keeps writing for "La voce del Monviso" (the local weekly magazine), for "New Mag" and, sometimes, she acts copywriter, rig-or-ous-ly under the table! Also, with the complicity of her good stylist friend Wolfango, she amuses herself shooting her grandmother Olga Dionigia in contemporary artistic-glamorous snapshots that she will, then, sell to an English fouled fashion magazine.EMMA IS A BIG DREAMER! Her everyday life is characterized by a healthy quantity of self-irony and inventiveness that shares among her new hubby, family, old friends, colleagues and her ultra-flexible job. Set in our present time of economic crisis, Emma is also careful to the daily expenses and, meantime she churns out articles about local exhibitions interviewing obscure unknown people, she keeps dreaming of writing for Vanity Fair! Will she be able to cross the chief's office borders?
