Craftyhj | 347 comments Visiting Miss Austen by Angela Pearse is currently free in the UK. Might be worth checking in other locations.

Drawing Mr. Darcy Duology by Melanie Rachel
(presumably $US): Starting TODAY through Sunday night (May 8th-11th) the DMD Duology ebook is just $1.99!

Interwoven by Melanie Rachel
Since the story of Interwoven (my Pride & Prejudice fantasy variation with a dash of Chosen One magic) begins in May, and because I’ve been playing around with a few touch-of-magic P&P short stories, I thought—why not put Interwoven on sale too?

Mark your calendars: May 13th-16th.

I couldn't find this on Booksprout by either author name. I also checked BookSirens just in case. Could you please add the link?

https://www.freecleanromance.com/free

Romantic Comedy (I saw a Persuasion inspired story called The Comeback by Ranee S. Clark on this page that I plan to download and read. I’ve read many books by her – including a few in this series – and have enjoyed them.)
Christian Romance (I have one of my Annilee Nelson books in this category)
Historical Romance (With Quill and Ink is listed here, and I saw a P&P variation from Jennifer Joy, as well as an original tale by Iris Lim on this page.)


I found another Austenesque one in the Romantic Comedies section:
Matched with the Boy Next Door (Romance by Love, Austen #4) by Britney M. Mills Matched with the Boy Next Door (Romance by Love, Austen Book 4) by Britney M. Mills

Unfortunately once a reviewer has selected a book, it no longer appears in the searches.

I just run two searches every few days; "darcy" and "Austen"

Unfortunately I can't find the link to these. Several of her audiobooks are available on YouTube as well.

Elin you may want to add more tags. It didn't show up in any searches I did. I eventually found it by looking up your author name.
Maybe add Darcy and Elizabeth, but definitely add Regency

Katja: I am happy if you want to read it and leave a review on Goodreads.

Wow, still?
Is there no way to get some kind of appeal now, after all this time?

I have sent them some emails to appeal but apart from a couple of unhelpful emails with links to the community standards they never respond anymore *shrug*
