Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **Elizabeth Bennet** My life is in tatters: a scandalous elopement, the possible loss of my beloved Longbourn, and the mortifying memory of a rejected proposal. As if that's not enough, I now have the delightful job of handling the unruly Holt children as their governess. Little did I know, this role would pull me into the world of international intrigue. Italy, Napoleon, and danger? Not exactly what I signed up for. **Things going terribly wrong: ** 1. Longbourn's impending doom. (Just perfect.) 2. Becoming a governess. (Desperation calls.) 3. Discovering the Holt's suspicious interest in Napoleon. (Because, of course.) 4. Running into the last person I'd ever want to see. (Why, universe, why?) 5. Realizing that the only man who can help me navigate this mess is the one whose heart I broke. (Oh, irony.) **Fitzwilliam Darcy** Getting over Elizabeth Bennet? Harder than I imagined. Being called upon for a crucial mission? Just my luck. Finding out Elizabeth is tangled in the very web I'm trying to unravel? Absolutely unbelievable. **Things I didn't expect this year: ** 1. Elizabeth becoming ensnared in an international incident. (Coincidence? I think not.) 2. Having to balance my mission with my feelings. (I'm not prepared.) 3. The burning need to protect Elizabeth from looming danger while she still despises me. (Old habits.) 4. Europe on the brink of war... again. (Timing is everything.) 5. Realizing the only way forward is to confront our past. (I could use a sign.) In a world teetering on war, can a gentleman set on deciphering international secrets and a governess wrapped up in her own tumultuous saga find their way back to each other?

Book excerpt: After Miss Elizabeth Bennet’s father is swindled in an investment opportunity, the family finds themselves in dire straits, and the eldest Bennet sisters must seek positions as governesses. Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy needs a replacement for the disastrous Miss Younge, who brought his younger sister to near ruin at the hands of the late Mr. Wickham, so he hires Elizabeth. Wickham was killed in a flurry of violence. He threatened Miss Darcy with a knife; Mr. Darcy rushed to defend his sister; the end result was not entirely purposeful. Now, however, both Mr. Darcy and his sister are altered, and Elizabeth knows nothing of what befell them both. So, she arrives to an imposing and grim estate, a secretive and brooding employer, and a haughty and troubled charge. I’m afraid this is another of my out-of-character Mr. Darcy variations. I know not entirely what happened, but a bit of Mr. Rochester seemed to creep into him by degrees as I wrote, and I fear he is a bit darker than our own Fitzwilliam, though hopefully circumstances explain his behavior. I also failed at keeping it clean. Again. I seem to always fail at that, don’t I? Heavens.

Cue the romance and shenanigans, because the game of love is about to get serious. **Elizabeth Bennet** It was supposed to be simple: come back to Derbyshire, see childhood friends, maybe fall in love. But that was before I realized George Darcy, the boy I'd set my heart on when I was just thirteen, was engaged to Lady Lucilla. Things I didn't expect this week: 1. Realizing I still had feelings for George. (Old habits die hard.) 2. Being warned off by his oh-so-serious older brother. (As if I'd listen!) 3. Finding myself in the middle of a love square? Love rhombus? Whatever it's called. 4. Being oddly drawn to the older Darcy brother. (His eyes... that's all I'm saying.) 5. Being the unintentional wrench in a seemingly perfect engagement. 6. Participating in the wittiest banter battles of my life. (With Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome, no less.) 7. Maybe... just maybe... reconsidering where my heart truly lies. **Fitzwilliam Darcy** I pride myself on being the responsible Darcy. But responsibility gets a tad complicated when Elizabeth Bennet storms back into our lives. This week's unforeseen complications: 1. Trying to keep my wayward brother, George, on the straight and narrow. (Impossible.) 2. Watching Elizabeth, with her sparkling eyes and razor-sharp wit, aim for George's heart. (Torture.) 3. Reminding myself I'm trying to keep her away for George's own good. (A lie I keep telling myself.) 4. Finding it increasingly challenging to keep my distance. (Why does she have to be so... captivating?) 5. Becoming entangled in a mess of love, loyalty, and longing. 6. Wishing, for the first time in my life, that I wasn't the responsible one. 7. Realizing that perhaps it's my heart that's at stake in this unexpected game of romance.

Book excerpt: A pun-filled tale featuring Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice characters with some added or addled, missing or missish, modified or mortified, healthier, wealthier, or wiser. Impeccable comportment is mandatory in Regency England, a society governed by strict rules of conduct. Perfectionist Fitzwilliam Darcy, heir to an august ancestral estate, is the epitome of an unimpeachable gentleman, at least until... Our hero's immaculate image is somewhat tarnished when he and his traveling companions arrive, hot and sweaty, at Pemberley and decide to take a fateful plunge into a scummy pond. An embarrassing encounter on the estate's lawn leaves a long-lasting impression on Jane and Elizabeth Bennet, who are new acquaintances of Georgiana and Anna Darcy. With both families in London for the Little Season, Darcy finds himself thrown again into the path of perky Elizabeth Bennet; but a handsome army officer just might blockade further advances. This romantic comedy is a lighthearted adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, featuring a softer, sweeter, sillier side of Austen's beloved characters.
