Dear Sharon Lathan My name is Thera van de Wetering, I live in a a small town in Maine . My favorite book is no suprise ” Pride and Prejudice ” and your books have been a great joy and a wonderful complement to this book. For I always wondered what happened to these great characters after they wed. You have developed these characters just as I thought they should have been. The secondary charters , well I cannot compliment you enough. Your invention of Dr Darcy was pure genius , he compliments the cast , and brings flavor to the storyline . I have read your books more then ones , I must admit, and each time I enjoy and discover something new. Please keep writing .
Thank you
Thera
