Query: the best of imitators of jane austen

I have read many of the sequels or completions of the books of Jane Austen and find this one to be by far the best. The plot is simple, but Jane Austen's plots were always basic. The prose transition between Austen and the "other lady" is absolutely seamless. I defy anyone to spot it without referring to the foreword which tells you where it is. The female characters are nicely done; the men as well developed as any of her characters. I have read and reread this many times and am as fond of it as I am of the "real" Austen books.
