Madeline Bell’s THE AUSTEN AFFAIR, where two feuding co-stars in a Jane Austen film adaptation accidentally travel back in time to the Regency Era, has received three starred reviews!

“The story blends the wit and stakes of an Austen novel with the steaminess of a modern romance. A delightful homage to Austen with plenty of its own romantic charm.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“In the honored tradition of Austen novels, this story is peppered with engaging and lovable characters dealing with societal expectations that challenge personal desires. Bell makes Hugh and Tess and their struggles with being emotionally vulnerable interesting, complex, and relatable.”—Booklist, starred review

“Bell makes a meal of the Austenian setting and does a fantastic job peeling back her well-matched leads’ layers as they learn to let go of first impressions. It’s an utter delight.”—Publisher’s Weekly, starred review
