    Summary

    The Parkers have fought their battles to keep Parker Racing on the Formula 1 starting grid. New partners are poised to come in and get their team and drivers back on the podium. Surprises are in store for everyone. This is inspired by the Formula 1 season persevering through the Covid-19 madness, and starting this Summer despite a very shortened season. The parallels of the high stakes glamorous and dangerous world of modern racing in F1, and the high stakes and risky development of a seaside town in the 1800s, were too close to not tie them together. Also inspired by the TV series, Sanditon, that was extended from the work of Jane Austen by Andrew Davies.

    Summary

    Sanditon modern AU.

    Charlotte Heywood grew up in a small village and worked at a local hotel after graduating from university, and she hasn't seen very much of the world. For as long as she can remember, she's been a fan of Jane Austen, often escaping into her works and adaptations, as well as running a blog for fellow Jane Austen fans.

    Charlotte is forced out of her comfort zone when the hotel she's worked at for one year closes down, and she's offered a job working at a family-run architecture company in London.

    All of Charlotte's new work colleagues seem nice, with the exception of the company owner, Sidney Parker, who is distant and off-hand with Charlotte right from their first meeting. And yet, there's something about Sidney Parker that intrigues Charlotte, in the same way that he seems to be drawn to her...

    Summary

    Sidney’s train to Sanditon is delayed, and when it finally arrives, he is annoyed to find his reserved seat occupied. Who is this girl that has stolen his seat? And what is it about her that he finds so intriguing? Can he open himself up to the possibility of love again?

    A modern AU loosely based on the Sanditon story set within the context of the music industry (fans of Nashville may appreciate this too). It will contain all our favourite Sanditon characters, but will primarily be focused on Sidlotte. I can also promise a HEA – it just may take a while to get there!

    This story includes some original songs which can be listened to on YouTube:
    "Out There" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee3D42_H2qY (Chapter 15)
    "Dreaming" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhkBkChNiwE (Chapter 25)
    "Contradictions" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbv-2GpK-Qo (Chapter 31)
    "Falling" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIsBTYfWo3U (Chapter 40)
