Rigler, a member of the Jane Austen Society of America and longtime Vroman's Ed teacher, crafts this tale of Courtney Stone, a Los Angeles woman trying to heal a broken heart with Jane Austen novels and Absolut vodka. One morning, she wakes to find herself in early nineteenth-century England, in another woman's body. Who but an Austen addict could concoct such a fantasy?
