review 1: In this engrossing Pride and Prejudice what if Pemberley is entailed so Georgiana can't inherit so a Darcy cousin is the next inline. When Darcy learns the cousin is to marry; he suggests that this cousin may not be interested in women, he realizes his plans to have Georgiana marry first are for naught and heads for Hertfordshire. Neither Darcy nor Elizabeth seem to love each other, can that change?What makes this awesome is that Mrs. Bennet's reasoning for wanting Lizzy to marry Collins is explained and Caroline isn't psycho and Georgiana is developed and strong.This is a very good, mostly clean some reference to marital relations but no detail.What makes it lacking is that it ends suddenly and leaves you wanting more.
review 2: The one thing that was out of p
... morelace for me was that Lizzy would never marry Mr Darcy if she wasn't in love with him especially since Jane was already married to Bingley and there was no reason to fear for her and her families situation should her father die and the estate become entailed away to Collins. It was a "cute" story seeing how Darcy and Elizabeth finally tell each other they love each other (touching moment) and there are moments of laughter but it lacked the depth that I would have loved to read about in their relationship. I viewed this as a short story versus a novel and if you view it as a short story you won't be disappointed in each quick turn of events and lack of depth. Cute read if you have an hour or so to spare :) less
