One Word Interview with Karey White

Today we have Karey White, author of  My Own Mr. Darcy. Welcome to the writing chair, Karey!

You've been set down in the middle of a fairy tale. What character are you?
 Matchmaker 

Awesome! I would love to be the matchmaker too and find everyone their true love! 

What's one trait you share in common with your MC? 
Stubborn 

People talk about stubborn like it's a bad thing. I don't think so. Way to be!

You're having your favorite author for dinner. What will you serve
for dessert?

 ChocolateChipCookiePieWithVanillaIceCream

Yum. Just yum. That is all.

What historical figure would you most like to have lunch with? 
Eve 

Wonderful choice! That would be quite the lunch. I wonder if it would be like lunch with a favorite grandmother. :) 

What is your dream romantic getaway spot? 
Norway 

I've never thought of Norway as romantic, but now that you mention it, sounds wonderful!

Thanks so much for being here today, Karey!

After being dragged to the 2005 movie Pride and Prejudice by her mother, sixteen-year-old Elizabeth’s life changes when Matthew Macfadyen’s Mr. Darcy appears on the screen. Lizzie falls hard and makes a promise to herself that she will settle for nothing less than her own Mr. Darcy. This ill-advised pledge threatens to ruin any chance of finding true love. During the six intervening years, she has refused to give any interested suitors a chance. They weren’t Mr. Darcy enough.

Coerced by her roommate, Elizabeth agrees to give the next interested guy ten dates before she dumps him. That guy is Chad, a kind and thoughtful science teacher and swim coach. While she’s dating Chad, her dream comes true in the form of a wealthy bookstore owner named Matt Dawson, who looks and acts like her Mr. Darcy. Of course she has to follow her dream. But as Elizabeth simultaneously dates a regular guy and the dazzling Mr. Dawson, she’s forced to re-evaluate what it was she loved about Mr. Darcy in the first place.

Love the premise of the book. She finds Mr. Darcy, and her true love too, Chad? Wow! That's the kind of quandary I'd love to be in! LOL
