Publisher Description

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.
