Merry Mischief

by Jann Rowland

Overview

Mr. Collins returns to Longbourn for Christmas, bolstered by Mrs. Bennet's assurances of success in his pursuit of Elizabeth, despite her clear opposition. His arrival, coupled with his dubious judgment on the matter, threatens to ruin the holiday season.

Try as she might, Elizabeth's attempts to convince him of the impossibility of their marriage fall on deaf ears, while her mother's schemes only add to her misery.

Mr. Darcy, an unlikely knight in shining armor, seems determined to rescue her from the parson's unwelcome attention, leaving Elizabeth to wonder about his true intentions. Their previous encounters have hardly endeared them to each another, and she is quick to suspect ulterior motives.

What should be a traditional holiday celebration threatens to descend into chaos. Mr. Collins is resolute in claiming his future bride, with Mr. Darcy just as determined to thwart him.

Then, a shocking turn of events seals Elizabeth's fate, and a Christmas miracle brings an unexpected resolution.

Merry Mischief is a novella of about about 23,000 words, celebrating a Darcy and Elizabeth regency Christmas!

About the Author

Jann Rowland is a Canadian, born and bred. Other than a two-year span in which he lived in Japan, he has been a resident of the Great White North his entire life, though he professes to still hate the winters.

Though Jann did not start writing until his mid-twenties, writing has grown from a hobby to an all-consuming passion. His interests as a child were almost exclusively centered on the exotic fantasy worlds of Tolkien and Eddings, among a host of others. As an adult, his interests have grown to include historical fiction and romance, with a particular focus on the works of Jane Austen.

When Jann is not writing, he enjoys rooting for his favorite sports teams. He is also a master musician (in his own mind) who enjoys playing piano and singing as well as moonlighting as the choir director in his church’s congregation.

Jann lives in Alberta with his wife of more than twenty years, two grown sons, and one young daughter. He is convinced that whatever hair he has left will be entirely gone by the time his little girl hits her teenage years. Sadly, though he has told his daughter repeatedly that she is not allowed to grow up, she continues to ignore him.
