Leenie Brown has always been a girl with an active imagination, which, while growing up, was a both an asset, providing many hours of fun as she played out stories, and a liability, when her older sister and aunt would tell her frightening tales. At one time, they had her convinced Dracula lived in the trunk at the end of the bed she slept in when visiting her grandparents!
Although it has been years since she cowered in her bed in her grandparents’ basement, she still has an imagination which occasionally runs away with her, and she feeds it now as she did then ─ by reading!
Her heroes, when growing up, were authors, and the worlds they painted with words were (and still are) her favourite playgrounds! She was that child, under the covers with the flashlight, reading until the wee hours of the morning…and pretending not to be tired the next day so her mother wouldn’t find out.
In addition to feeding her imagination, she also exercises it ─ by writing. While writing has been an activity she has dabbled in over the years, it blossomed into a full-fledged obsession when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. Leenie had first fallen in love with Jane Austen's work in her early teens when she was captivated by the tale of a girl, who like her, was the second born of five daughters. Now, as an adult, she spends much time in the regency world, playing with the characters from her favourite Jane Austen novels and a few that are of her own creation.
When she is not traipsing down a trail in an attempt to keep up with her imagination, Leenie resides in the beautiful province of Nova Scotia with her two sons and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with a healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tilney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

Teatime Tales
|
Six Austen-inspired romances for when time is short and you just need something sweet.
What is more delicious than settling into a comfy chair with a cup (or glass) of tea, a nibble-y little snack, and a book? To me, that is pure pleasure! However, teatime is never long enough to read a complete book…a few chapters — yes, a complete book — no. What I need for times like these is something quick that is both sweet and satisfying, or I run the risk of never leaving that comfy chair until the whole book is finished. My Teatime Tales collection of novelettes is designed to fulfill that need for a quick read and is carefully crafted to be an entertaining and oh-so-satisfying bit of sweetness to brighten your day.
In this collection of six short and sweet Pride and Prejudice variations, you will relations who are a challenge, friends who are determined to be matchmakers, stumbles that need righting, and the first blooms of happily ever after for a most beloved couple. So grab a cuppa and snuggle in with a Teatime Tale (or six).
