While writing my romance novels, I also ran an exclusive, upmarket dating agency. I found that over the years people have not changed. The same romance problems that plagued the heroines and heroes of Jane Austen’s novels beset my real-life clients in the modern day. People continue to make the same old mistakes and get disappointed. I decided to create a guide to finding the right person, incorporating what I had earned in the dating industry with Jane Austen’s pithy and insightful advice. Ms. Austen really understands human nature, and that it does not change!
