Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
What readers are saying

'Whoa, Darcy!'

'Some parts are hilarious and some a walk on the wild side for Austen characters. Curl up and enjoy!'

'Tells the tale I always wanted to hear...how the Darcys lived happily ever after...'

'The only fault I found with this book was that it ended.'

Every woman wants to be Elizabeth Bennet Darcy-beautiful, gracious, universally admired, strong, daring and outspoken-a thoroughly modern woman in crinolines.

And every woman will fall madly in love with Mr. Darcy-tall, dark and handsome, a nobleman and a heartthrob whose virility is matched only by his utter devotion to his wife.

Their passion is consuming and idyllic-essentially, they can't keep their hands off each other-through a sweeping tale of adventure and misadventure, human folly and numerous mysteries of parentage.

Hold on to your bonnets! This sexy, epic, hilarious, poignant and romantic sequel to Pride and Prejudice goes far beyond Jane Austen.

User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Ridiculous
This is an absurd adventure into the supposed Darcy bedroom. As others say, nothing more than dressed up porn and not very believable behavior. Gross spoilers to follow....
At one point Darcy finds the dressed-up Lizzie, ready for a ball, and throws her up on a dresser and... well. And then he asks her not to bathe so she can feel it running down her legs all night. Ewww. Would Darcy ever do that???
Then he brings a mirror into their bed, and our witty (not in this book) Lizzy looks at them being... in the marital way.... and says, "It IS fascinating, isn't it?" PUH-LEEZE. Lizzy also pouts when she realizes that this 30 some odd year old aristocrat husband of hers had other lovers, and gives him the third degree???? NOT something a respectable young wife and lady would do. IMHO.

Just three examples that made me snort.

Wish I had never bought this book.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Easy to put down...easier to walk away from!
This is a truly awful book! I like a good racy novel as well as the subsequent woman, but this is downright tasteless and silly. I never like to put down a book and walk away, but this time I will make an exception. The time it would take to finish this novel are hours in my life I will never get back. The publisher should be ashamed to put their imprint on this piece of trash!





Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - It really rates less than 1 star
While reading this book I suffered from an eye injury, which was caused by excessive rolling of my eyes in disbelief and horror (e.g. using a mirror to watch themselves having sex; Elizabeth and her fascination with Darcy's boots, Elizabeth being kidnapped, etc.). At first, I thought the book must be a parody but after some investigation I discovered it was a "serious" endeavor to further the story of Elizabeth and Darcy. I also am seized with the horrible mental picture and idea that this is the type of book that Mr. Collins would read and find exciting.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Nothing but trash
The story line is this: sex, argument, sex, sex,sex,sex, argument, sex,sex,sex, sex, disagreement, sex,sex, sex, visit with disgraceful family, sex, sex, sex, unbelievable disaster, sex, sex, sex, visit with sister who admits passionless marriage(why do all the sequels assume this?) sex, sex, sex.
This was basically literary porn. I hated it and wish I could forget every word I read. some books you can even skip the sex scenes and get a story but here there was no story. You don't have to write sex scenes to get passion in a book... I think this author would do well to take lessons from Jane Austen on just how to do that. This book was nothing but trash and that is exactly where I put it. If you want a good story don't waste your money.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Lizzie Gets Laid
Good grief, I've not ever come across a book peppered with so much sex. Really, I read several of the more ripe paragraphs out loud to my husband and we howled with laughter. I zipped through this novel with one eyebrow raised in disbelief as it seemed almost a parody. The plot relies heavily on graphic details of Darcy and Lizzie's sex life, beyond that it's not a bad book, but it is a generic bodice ripper. I did enjoy it for the shock value, but serious Jane Austin fans will be horrified.
