Jane Austen discussion

Story by Elaine Grotefeld in the collection Dancing with Mr. Darcy

This story had a very sparse feel, but it was lovely I thought. And it was an interesting twist that the reason this relationship had been ended originally was through the choice of the "modern-day Jane" that it would not be good for either of them at the time. They both sort of knew this and did not need to be persuaded, but also knew it was important enough to wait and reconnect at the right time.

I agree that it was sparse. I don't know whether that's length again or by design. It was a sweet story - but not much depth to it. It was hard to really identify with either character very much. I felt more for the mother.
