Beschreibung

Discover the original tales and the great loves from the literature classics that influenced and created this beloved genre. This collection pays tribute to how deeply a slow-burn love can stir the heart. From quiet glances and unspoken confessions to the triumphant moment when passion finally ignites, these authors demonstrated that sometimes, the surest way to find happiness is to let it grow at its own, unhurried pace. 
In Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell, the warmhearted Molly Gibson navigates social conventions and personal trials, all while her slow-blooming feelings highlight the importance of patience and empathy. Charles Dickens's Great Expectations follows the young orphan Pip, whose evolving connection to the haunting Estella demonstrates how longing and growth can intertwine in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë mesmerizes readers with Jane's journey toward self-respect and her simmering bond with the brooding Mr. Rochester.
Emma by Jane Austen delights with witty matchmaking gone awry, while George Eliot's Middlemarch examines deep emotional undercurrents among multiple characters searching for meaning and true companionship. Thomas Hardy's Under the Greenwood Tree offers a gentle rural romance shaped by music and community, and George Sand's Indiana defies convention to reveal the struggles of a passionate soul in search of freedom.
In Evelina by Fanny Burney, social mishaps and heartfelt discoveries create a path to genuine affection, and Rudyard Kipling's The Light that Failed introduces a poignant tale of devotion tested by ambition and adversity. The collection culminates with The Story of Anne with an E & Gilbert Blythe, drawn from Lucy Maud Montgomery's beloved works, where lifelong friendships blossom into lasting love.
What makes these classics so exciting is their emphasis on the emotional landscape of the characters, the slow but rewarding progression of their relationships, and the timeless exploration of love's complexities. Each novel expertly captures the agony and ecstasy of anticipation, illustrating how the subtlest of gestures can pave the way for profound connection. Whether you've known these stories for years or are just discovering them for the first time, their powerful influence on modern romance fiction cannot be overstated.
In the #SlowBurn Classics Collection, you'll find stories where romance takes center stage through gradual, thoughtful development.  These novels invite you into their pages with a promise of quiet tension, meaningful interactions, and the ultimate reward of a tender, hard-earned love. Immerse yourself in these treasures and savor the magic they inspire. ​

    INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS:
    In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy.
    Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East. 
     
    Elizabeth Ogilvie sailed on the maiden voyage of the S.S Viking with rather mixed feelings. It was not that her job, as assistant purser, was likely to set her any problems; nor was she worried at having to keep secret the fact that she was virtually related to the Chairman of the shipping line, who was also on board — travelling incognito, for reasons of his own. What had been so upsetting for Elizabeth was to discover, at the last moment, that the Captain of the ship was to be Hugh Anson, with whom she had once been in love. But although Elizabeth did not know it, there were others on board with even bigger reasons for treating the Captain with hostility. Altogether it looked like being anything but a peaceful voyage!
