Summary
Charlotte Heywood has always loved fairytales.
For years, she dreamed of one day experiencing a fairytale adventure of her own, complete with a ballgown, a handsome prince and a happy ending.
Now in her twenties and having experienced a recent relationship breakup, along with dealing with the day to day practicalities of running her own bookshop in a quiet village while trying to make enough money to pay her rent and bills, Charlotte has become a bit more pessimistic about perfect happy endings, and more certain in her belief that fairytales don't happen in real life.
However, when Charlotte starts to see and hear a few signs that she will soon encounter the man of her dreams at a fancy party, as well as hints that this man will have connections to royalty, and she then receives an unexpected invitation to attend a ball, where she meets a charming, handsome man who looks like a prince, acts like the man of Charlotte's dreams and mysteriously disappears at midnight, Charlotte starts to wonder if fairytales really can come true after all.

Summary
Sidney gets detained in London and misses the first summer ball. Without Charlotte's observations on the balcony to color Sidney's impression of her (or her impression of him), their history may have less need of revision.

Summary
A regency retelling of the story of Sanditon with a twist. This story is a little different from the original but has many of the same themes. You may even read some of our favorite quotes in different scenes than the original or, perhaps, spoken by someone else. As always, no story is complete without a Sidlotte HEA. More of a summary in the notes. Rated explicit for the potential of a future love scene. Please don't expect it to happen right away. This is regency, after all.
