Celebrate Jane Austen’s classic novels with this short story anthology starring forgotten characters as they experience their own happy endings.

In honor of her 250th birthday, eight authors have come together with wildly imaginative reboots of the lives of several of Jane Austen’s minor characters. Written with plenty of love and wit, these clever stories star everyone from Pride and Prejudice’s snobbish Caroline Bingley to the modern descendant of Sense and Sensibility’s Eliza Williams and much more. Blurring genres and taking us across the oceans, Ladies in Waiting is a heartfelt celebration of Jane Austen and her timeless masterpieces.

Ladies in Waiting is like a beautiful bouquet of flowers that one unexpectedly receives. Some flowers that you quite like but other flowers you love very much. They are long lasting and fill you with joy and happiness. I love the resolution and happiness for these characters especially for Mrs Wickham and Miss Bates. Thank you for such much for my beautifully arranged bouquet.
