Not Quite Mr. Darcy - Kim Griffin - Bog

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that Mr. Darcy does not exist."
Many a young woman has spent years looking for her perfect Mr. Darcy, but Kate Thomas knows better. A 29-year-old recently widowed southerner, Kate sets off to find herself on the other side of the ocean in the very country where Mr. Darcy's life was penned. Looking only to escape reminders of her heartache, Kate journeys to places she never thought she'd go-finding faith, love, and family along the way.
Not Quite Mr. Darcy is not a P&P retelling but the story of a woman's journey to discover what real love is.
An ocean ... it's vast and powerful. The water that fills it can bring death, or offer life. Kate Thomas moves her life across an ocean to conquer the hold of her past and find new life for her future.
Not Quite Mr.Darcy is women's fiction with clean romance (kisses only). It tackles forgiving the seemingly unforgivable and the disillusionment many a woman has faced upon realizing that the perfect husband they've been raised to look for doesn't exist. Kate, a recent widow, leaves her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee. Seeking distance from her past she takes a job in Kingsdown, England, working with a dementia patient in a cottage overlooking the English Channel. What she finds there is much more than she anticipated. Kate learns to find joy even in the hardest circumstances.
