From Tolerable to Tempting: A Pride and Prejudice Variation
3.5/5
()
About this ebook
Another wonderful regency from Ms. Solomon this time, in the tradition of Abigail Reynolds, a Pride and Prejudice variation that should have you both smiling and weeping. What would happen, one wonders, if Mr. Bennet were to die, leaving Lizzie evicted from Longbourn? What if this happens after she has so forcefully rejected Mr. Darcy? What if Mr. Collins proves insuff erable (no surprise!) and Lizzie is forced to earn her keep?
Will her path cross with Darcys? Unlikely, but not impossible. Can Darcy ever be absolved of his wicked remark She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me?
What of Anne De Bourgh? What luminously cunning scheme is contrived to thwart Lady Catherine? Does Wickhams insidious charm still have consequences? For whom?
When does an astonished Lizzy discover that the last man on earth she could ever be prevailed upon to marry is actuallyquite sinfullytempting?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A bit sad with the sudden death of Mr Bennet from getting wet during a storm but filled with some humor. Mr Collins is as ridiculous as always and gets knocked out by Bingley ( with Charlotte approving).
Elizabeth takes a position as Georgiana's companion without Darcy knowing it. You can guess they disagree over her role and her standing. He sees her as a gentlewoman and she believes she's now just a servant.
Enjoyed reading this very much. It doesn't change the basics of this Austen classic.1 person found this helpful
