A Short and Sweet Pride and Prejudice Variation

A Longbourn Entanglement

The events occur three years after the original events of Pride & Prejudice, but before the Netherfield ball. Darcy receives a visit in his isolated manor in Cornwall. It is Charles Bingley, and he has come to ask for a favor... There is nothing Elizabeth Bennet likes more than a laugh - except for a mystery. From the moment she first encounters Mr. Darcy, she senses he is hiding something. But the more she tries to find out about who he is, the more evasive he becomes. However, Elizabeth soon turns her attention to someone else. As Mrs. Bennet points out, Mr. Darcy is a nobody, and Elizabeth needs to marry someone who can provide for her and her sisters. Meanwhile, Mr. Darcy doesn't want anyone to know about the scandal that haunts him from the past. He certainly doesn't need someone like Miss Bennet, who asks him questions and tries to slip him up. Fortunately, he is more than equal to the task of putting her off. What he doesn't expect is that before he knows it, he finds himself longing to tell her the truth. Are Elizabeth and Darcy meant to come together in this variation, or is Elizabeth destined for somebody else?Note: Mysterious Mr. Darcy is not a mystery. It is a 'what-if' in which Mr. Darcy has to deal with the consequences of his past, a past that will change the shape of his future.

Mr. Darcy's Pride and Joy

Darcy dreams of winning Elizabeth Bennet's hand and he has a strategy worked out. But when a chance encounter prompts Darcy to propose to Elizabeth before he has rescued Lydia, his plans go horribly awry. Broken hearted, disillusioned and bitterly regretting his impulsive action, Darcy sees no point in fulfilling the terms of his pledge. After all, rescuing Lydia might save Elizabeth's reputation, but why should he assist her when they have no future together? Once again, Darcy finds himself faced with impossible choices: being selfless, even knowing there is no chance of reward; or holding onto his dignity by turning his back on the Bennets once and for all. Pride and love are at loggerheads as he struggles to choose between his mind … and his heart. Volume Two of The Darcy Novels continues the story began in Mr. Darcy's Pledge but can be read as an independent book as well. The novel would appeal to readers of traditional Regency Romance as well as lovers of Jane Austen variations. Praise for Volume One of The Darcy Novels: Mr. Darcy's Pledge "The premise was brilliant – not only wickedly fun to witness, but very believable as well." Austenesque Reviews "Mr. Darcy's Pledge has to be one of my favorite pieces of Austenesque fiction... I found this book to be funny and romantic." Kinx's Book Nook "There is so much humour, from wry asides here and there, to the awful comic creations of Lord and Lady Matlock." Leatherbound Reviews "Fairview really knows and loves the Austen characters and writes them so realistically. I love Darcy's inner turmoil in this book." Laura's Reviews General Praise for Monica Fairview "elegantly written... excellent" Everything Victorian and More "Cleverly crafted and humorously engaging" Austenprose “Fairview's effort falls squarely in the good category. This will appeal to Austen and Regency romance fans alike.” - Library Journal “Fairview's characters often come out with little echoes of Jane Austen truisms.” - Historical Novel Reviews “Many beloved characters from P&P reappear, and it was a joy to read a sequel that breathes fresh yet true life into the denizens of Hunsford and Pemberley. No liberties are taken… Ms. Fairview provides excellent character extension to Mr. Darcy. Ms. Fairview is a definite treasure.” All About Romance

Praise for Abigail Reynolds "If you are unfamiliar with these riveting and romantic variations, they are retellings of Pride and Prejudice that take our beloved hero and heroine down a slightly altered path. Abigail Reynolds, one of my favorite Austenesque authors, is a skilled-story teller, an ardent admirer of Jane Austen, and quite proficient at infusing a lot of emotion, tension, and passion into her stories!" Austenesque Reviews "If romantics can overlook the subversion, they should enjoy witnessing Elizabeth as an industrious and caring wife, administering to Pemberley's tenants, learning how to be an equestrian and growing to love that perplexing Darcy." Publishers Weekly Praise for Cassandra Grafton "This book is a total delight for anyone who is a fan of Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, Regency romance and... oh, just romance in general. Ms Grafton writes beautifully and has a descriptive style that can make small things into beautiful wonders." Tess Quinn, Goodreads "Through witty dialog and beautiful Regency language, this book is in the style of Jane Austen herself. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Her love of Austen's characters and the Regency era shine through in all of her novels." Diary of an Eccentric "A great read for any Jane Austen fan-fiction lover. With great characters, witty writing, and a swoon-worthy romance, Maria Grace's Given Good Principles series is a solid addition to your bookshelf." Austenprose Praise for Monica Fairview "This novel stands very well on its own as a Regency Romance, but for the Janeites among its readers it's important to know how well Monica Fairview treats the beloved characters from Pride and Prejudice." All About Romance "Infused with humor ... Fairview has proven again why she was my top choice of Austenesque debut authors of 2009. She is well on her way to becoming a nonpareil in Austen paraliterature and I recommend The Darcy Cousins to those who dearly love a satisfying love story and a hearty laugh." Austenprose Praise for Susan Mason-Milks "Susan Mason-Milks pens a Pride and Prejudice variation that explores an untraveled road in Jane Austen's classic novel...As you may guess, this path to true love has a whole lot more more ruts and turns for our hero and heroine..." Austenesque Reviews "After reading it I find myself even more enamored of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. I think this is a true testament to how beautifully Susan Mason-Milks crafted this "what if" version of Pride and Prejudice. - Valeehill
