    Summary

    We return to Charlotte in Willingdon one year after the death of her husband Henry Crowe. Sidney had never stop loving Charlotte and this is the story of Sidney Parker courting the one woman whom he has always loved.

    This is the continuation from the 'Mr Crowe' story ( I would suggest you read the story to help understand the various relationships)

    Summary

    **NOW COMPLETE**

    Sanditon season 1 ended horribly. With no guarantee of a second season, I have to give Charlotte and Sidney a happy ending. Hopefully we get a second season, but for now this is my interpretation of season 2. There will be an HEA but it's going to take some time to get there.

    Charlotte and Alison are invited back to Sanditon to be Lady Denham's companions. When they arrive, Lady Denham quickly puts Charlotte in charge of the rebuild in Sanditon. What Charlotte wasn't expecting was Sidney Parker to show up at every turn. Between Lady Denham, Lady Susan, Georgiana, Mr. Crowe, Lord Babington, and a feisty little sister all working together, Sidney and Charlotte will find their way back to each other.

    Summary

    **NOW COMPLETE**

    Regency era, alternative story about Charlotte Heywood and Sidney Parker.

    Sidney's mother is pushing him to marry and marry well to save the family from ruin. His pursuit is Mrs. Campion, a wealthy widow with a horrible personality. On the verge of asking her to marry him, he goes on a hunting trip to clear his head. What happens on this hunting trip changes his path in life forever.

    Sidney POV

    I see Sidney being closer to twenty-five in this story and Charlotte being about nineteen or twenty. Sidney is not as cynical and doesn't have that hard exterior personality we are used to. To be honest, he's kind of a mama's boy. He's lived a sheltered and comfortable life.

    When I first had the idea for this story, I pictured a bear attacking Sidney. But doing research I found that bears are not common wild animals in England. I'm American and live in a state where bears are common. In doing research, I found that in the regency era there were wild cats that were referred to as phantom cats, panthers, jaguars, or leopards. Although, some accounts claim there is no such thing and stories were exaggerated. Anyway, for story purposes, this phantom cat exists.
