Prada & Prejudice (Razorbill/Penguin, 2009)

 

 “I love fashion, and I am fascinated by history. This book combines both.” - Abigail Breslin (Actress), TIME Magazine

“Part comedy of errors, part romantic-fantasy,  this fast-reading, playful novel takes the idea of feeling out of place to a hilarious extreme.” - Publisher’s Weekly

“If the shoe fits, wear it-and if you’re in the mood for a frickin’ awesome romance, this is definitely the shoe for you.” - Lauren Myracle, New York Times Bestselling Author of TTYL

“A fun and charming read, sure too be popular with fans of humor and romance.” - School Library Journal

 ”This was an enjoyable, delightful read that readers of romance or historical fiction will enjoy. I can’t wait to read more from this fabulous new author!” - Sarah Bean, Reviewer for Teens Read Too.

Fifteen-year-old Callie buys a pair of real Prada pumps to impress the cool crowd on a school trip to London. Goodbye, Callie the clumsy geek-girl, hello popularity! But before she knows what’s hit her, Callie wobbles, trips, conks her head… and wakes up in the year 1815!

She stumbles about until she meets the kind-hearted Emily, who takes Callie in, mistaking her for a long-lost friend. Sparks soon fly between Callie and Emily’s cousin, Alex, the maddeningly handsome-though totally arrogant-Duke of Harksbury. Too bad he seems to have something sinister up his ruffled sleeve…

From face-planting off velvet piano benches and hiding behind claw-foot couches to streaking through the estate halls wearing nothing but an itchy blanket, Callie’s curiosity about Alex creates all kinds of trouble.
But the grandfather clock is ticking on her 19th Century shenanigans. Can Callie save Emily from a dire engagement, win a kiss from Alex, and prove to herself that she’s more than just a loud-mouth klutz before her time there is up?
