Nine Ladies: A Pride and Prejudice Variation by Heather Moll is 99 cents on Amazon today
Aha! I finally got it -- Nine Ladies is on sale on Solstice day!
The standing stones... a.k.a. The Nine Ladies. Well done, Wose. Good catch. I just checked and there was a crowd of more than 6,000 at Stonehenge now that people can travel more easily. Here are a few pictures.

Yeah for the rock pile! I saw it to and from Chawton as I was staying with a friend in Somerset. Also, Winchester and Salisbury.
Glad you enjoyed it guys. I'm jealous of the girl in green with the flower coronet. Heavy sigh. The 60s still call to me.
Me too, Jeanne—I’m a sucker for a flower garland! At my girls’ school we mostly made them out of clover flowers, except in the heavenly wisteria season . . .
When I was a small child, my mother taught me how to tie clover flowers into a garland. We would then string it around and between the porch posts. When my father came home from work, he would have to climb through or break the strands. I thought that was hilarious. I still remember that scene.
I would make crowns to put on young children I played with during recess. I was fourth grade, and they were Kindergarten, I think I remember.

Thank you for sharing that The Collins Conundrum: A Pride and Prejudice Variation is currently free. I am a fan of Meg Osborne and am glad to have gotten a book of hers I haven't read for free. Have a great day!

I noticed on Facebook that Jack Caldwell said there would be an Austen Variations sale from something like 1-3 July... perhaps this is an early price drop from there? Good catch! J. W. wrote: "$0.99 deal from Lucy Marin:

I need to check that out. Thanks for letting us know. Yay! I love a good sale. Hopefully, there will be some I don't already have.

Only a few of those had a price reduction on my storefront, maybe regional restrictions or something.

I read manga as well & last week a bunch of books that their publisher listed as on sale weren't marked down. I was able to find a link to say my shopping experience was poor because of it and a few days later they marked some down but not all. They used to have a button to say you found things at a cheaper price but it has disappeared.
They seem to be marking down books a lot less than before in general.
Discovering Grace by Sally Britton is free. It's a clean Regency, but not JAFF.

Thank you for sharing, I really like Meg Osborne and had the first book in this series (although I haven't read it yet) so and glad to get the next one free as well.
