A mash-up of Pride and Prejudice and Lucy Maud Montgomery’s The Blue Castle, An Affectionate Heart asks what would happen if Elizabeth really needed to escape her confining circumstances at home. The Darcys are new to the neighbourhood, living in a nearby cottage (yes, they're still rich) in scandal-tainted seclusion, but Elizabeth becomes friends with sickly Georgiana, much to Georgiana's brother's displeasure.

Elizabeth makes a desperate plan to escape her rigid, dependent life after discovering shattering news, and she needs Darcy's help to make it work. Both Darcy and Elizabeth are set on not giving their hearts away (FOR REASONS), but as Georgiana grows weaker, they become more emotionally entangled with each other.

Heather always knows exactly when and how to turn up the angst and anticipation, while also drawing out that slow burn to make it wildly romantic. An Affectionate Heart is out now in ebook and paperback on Amazon and KU!
