Produktbeschreibung

A 1930s romantic comedy brought straight from the pages of Jane Austen . . .

Faye Powell is a typical girl from Tennessee during the Depression. Her parents are struggling, their large family isn't easy to support, and the few people with good fortune are objects of envy, similar to the Hollywood stars whose faces appear at the movies each week. Except that it's hard to feel that way if you actually live with them and know what they're like.

Faye's aunt and uncle live in a lovely house in Illinois, so fine it's actually been given a name like it's some kind of country estate. Bellevere House. And that's where Faye is staying. After being semi-adopted by her relatives, she drifts around accompanying her silly, spoiled cousins on their rounds of clueless insulation, irresponsible schemes, romantic entanglements that lead to disaster, and affectations of stardom. It's hard to be jealous of people when she sees the sometimes painful reality under the surface. And it's downright impossible when arrogant Ed believes she has a thing for him when she doesn't.

At least-she doesn't yet.

You Can't Take It with You meets Mansfield Park in this sparkling and creative revision of one of Austen's great novels. Set in a charming, chic 1930s setting, Bellevere House is soaked in vintage Americana.

Autorenporträt

Sarah Scheele is the author of numerous books for younger readers in several subcategories within YA, from Middle Grade to New Adult. She lives on a third-generation family farm in Texas, was homeschooled long before other people had even heard of the idea, and grew up surrounded by big blue skies, winding gravel roads, and the great classics of literature. She manages the family farm/homeschooling household (think housekeeper with an independent streak and a laptop full of ideas) and that has been her first and only career. She is happily enjoying a single life. Her repertoire of young adult fiction titles is divided into four series. Writing was always a side hustle until the last couple of years when she stopped creating books for a while and began to examine how to market her existing ones and improve their presentation. 2023 saw the beginning of the publication of complete editions for her series.
