The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . THE MARRIAGE OF MISS JANE AUSTEN: Volume III . . . Was a not miss if you had read the previous books. This was a serious journey in one woman's life of what may have been, could have been, and as far as we are concerned this was what her life was from the viewpoint were were given. The trilogy was well researched. Detailed. Thought-out. You could feel the realism. I felt like I was a spectator of Jane Austen's life. I had a front row seat to the way things unfolded. I have added this trilogy to my collection of Austen's books as a to read again. This collection was a way for me to visit Ms. Austen's time period and experience the things she had as she was creating a legacy for us to all enjoy at some point in time. I found reasons to fall in love with her and her works all over again. 


BLURB

The momentous events of the Napoleonic wars and the agonizing trials of their personal lives take Jane and Ashton to a decision that will decide their fate—and her future—once and for all.
