Description

"Sparkling, witty and delectable" - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"Catnip for Austen fans... A joy to read!" - READER'S FAVORITE EDITORIAL REVIEW

***Finalist (in the last seven novels) for the UK SELFIES Book Awards 2024***

"Should she reject me again, I shall have to wed - as I swore I never would - for dynasty alone. I can only ever love Elizabeth Bennet."

Take a deep dive into Darcy.

McVeigh puts the spotlight on Darcy in this imaginative re-telling of Austen's classic tale. In a timeless story of love amid the clash of social classes, Darcy is faced with a terrible choice: to stay in London to force Wickham's hand - or to go to Rome, to salvage his family's reputation.

With a new Darcyesque slant, omitted scenes from the original, and an extra helping of humour - including excerpts from The Wisdom and Wit of Miss Mary Bennet - this is a fresh new Pride and Prejudice with (wedding) bells on!

"McVeigh has a remarkable sense of the literary world Austen established, and is able to recreate it with masterly skill. Specifically, she reproduces Austen's prose style with great fidelity, in all of its charming sophistication and clever wit." - Kirkus Reviews

"One of the best expansions that I have ever come across, thanks to prose that sings with intelligent wit... The period details, dialogue, and storytelling are all spectacular: McVeigh's Darcy was an absolute joy to read."
- Readers Favorite editorial review

"Austen enthusiasts will enjoy a style faithful to the original, while those looking for a new twist will appreciate the post-modern perspectives showcasing character motivation from a fresh standpoint."
- IndieReader recommended 4.5/5
