Thornrose Estate: Northanger Abbey discovers Beauty and the Beast
Heroines don't wield swords.
Calla knows this very well, for none of the heroines in her books have swords. Yet her guardians insisted she learn how to protect herself, because there is apparently some danger looming over her in the wide world. Given that she has no memory of her life before ten, she can't dispute that.
Yet, when she's sent out into the world before she's ready, she finds herself caught up in a web of intrigue and mystery. Is she the long-lost princess she suspects she might be, and might Hansel return her affection? If only she knew who she was and where she belonged! Her nineteenth birthday - and answers! - can't come soon enough.
The series
The Austen Fairy Tales, a series of Austen retellings, each one mixed with a beloved fairy tale. They are pseudo-medieval high fantasy in a shared world and are best read in publication order, though each story does stand alone.
