The Kindle price of Mr. Darcy's Secret has been slashed to £1.89 here in the UK and $2.95 in the US! It's a huge saving, and if you haven't had a chance to read it, I hope you'll be tempted!   After capturing the heart of the most eligible bachelor in England, Elizabeth Bennet believes her happiness is complete-until the day she unearths a stash of anonymous, passionate love letters that may be Darcy's, and she realizes just how little she knows about the guarded, mysterious man she married...  Praise for Jane Odiwe: "Continuing a novel like Pride and Prejudice is a daring enterprise, and Jane Odiwe comes to it steeped in Austen, in all her renditions; Odiwe's sentences often glint with reflections of the great Jane..." -Historical Novel Society  "Odiwe's elegantly stylish writing is seasoned with just the right dash of tart humor. " - Booklist  "Jane Odiwe writes with such eloquence and style that you can't be he...
