I got this book after watching the 2005 Pride and Prejudice movie and thought "that can't be it"!
I ordered this book and I was really excited to receive it. I could not put the book down once I started reading! This book continues where the movie left off.
With all the tough times in today's world, it was a good feeling to read a book of "happily ever after".
I think all girls dream of a prince charming and this book definitely delivers. I would suggest all who loved the movie to read this book.

I Love this book. The author Sharon Lathan wrote about the true honeymoon and/or what it should be like. It was not a problem for me to visualize from the Jane Austen Classic. The intensity of the pride and prejudice Jane and William had for each other through misunderstanding changed and was later realized an intense love they had for one another, that love they previously denied due to pride or prejudice, but now that same intensity turned around and their true feelings for one another emerged and continued to bloom through the honeymoon period. And, as far as I am concerned a honeymoon can last for a lifetime. This book was very believable. I agree whole heartely with DiAnn Field's excellent review as follows:
"By DiAnn Fields (Normal, IL
This review is from: Two Shall Become One: Mr. and Mrs. Fitzwilliam Darcy (Paperback)
If you loved the 2005 version of Pride & Prejudice starring Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen, this book is the sequel you have been waiting for. The book begins after the wedding of Elizabeth Bennet & Fitzwilliam Darcy and follows the beginning of their married life together. As a young couple in love, they are excited to start their marriage. Not to be a spoiler, but the newlyweds are very inexperienced in male-female relationships and you have to take in account the time period of this story. It is quite sweet to see them discover the kind of intimacies that a newlywed couple has. Contrary to some reviews, this book is not all about sex - if it was, I wouldn't have wasted my time reading it. Of course, Lizzy and William are finally free to express their love for each other and both are still apprehensive on what to do next. Author Sharon Lathan does a fantastic job filling in the blanks and expanding on Lizzy and William's relationship. She goes back in time to further explain the many twists and turns of their journey to find each other. I was struck by how lonely William was and expected to be when he thought he would not have a future with Elizabeth. I also found their devotion to one another and the "comfortableness" they achieved enchanting though both were still shy at times. If you close your eyes, you can actually hear Keira & Matthew using Ms. Lathan's words as their own. With Lizzy & William's families filling in the backdrop of their lives, a very interesting and multi-layered story is told. True to their relationship becoming more familiar, there are more scenes with Lizzy & William expanding their special time alone towards the end of the book. The view into their love for each other did bring a blush to my face, but I still could not put the book down. Kudos to Ms. Lathan for her courage in writing a sequel to this beloved Jane Austen story. Her thoughtful insights and detailed character development made me wish this was a movie. The good news is that this is volume 1 of the story of Fitzwilliam & Elizabeth Darcy - I look forward to futures volumes."

This book is enjoyable if you are the Mills and Boon type. If you are a Jane Austen lover, this book hardly bears any semblance to the actual Pride and Prejudice. The protagonists are named Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth but they do not remind me of Pride and Prejudice at all. The language is not as rich as Jane Austen's obviously and the words used (like ultra) certainly are not true to the age. This book is a terrible sequel. I miss Austen's rich language full of sarcasm and wit and I am going to re-read Pride and Prejudice to overcome the disappointment.

I have read and own over one hundred sequels to P & P, which had given me a good critical eye as to which are the best ones, not so good, okay and the worst! Of all the sequels, Sharon Lathan's Darcy Saga Series outstand the rest. Sharon has a profound respect for the period, Jane Austen and correctness. In addition, her style is sublimely beautiful. Jane Austen would be very pleased after reading Lathan's books, if she were alive today. I already have the three of them: Two Shall Become One, Journeys Beyond Pemberley and the Darcys at Year'End. (I think). if you want to get into sequels of Jane Austen stories, you should begin with these series. You go, Sharon Lathan!

I like any sequel that stays true to Darcy and Elizabeth's character as described by Austen. This book tends to over-emphasize the passionate sex between Darcy and Elizabeth. I know this is an idealized relationship, but I think the book strays from their original characters. I like the story well enough to keep it and read again.
