The relationship between Darcy and Elizabeth in this book is the most beautiful ride-or-die connection I have ever read. The premise swap of Darcy Sr. being alive and the Bennets all perished in a carriage accident allowed for a completely new story inside the tried and true world of P&P.

The first half of the book was excellent in my opinion. I love the original idea of how our couple are brought together when both find themselves in undesirable, dire circumstances. I love how they are drawn to each other and the unavoidable and realistic challenges and awkwardness that comes from being forced to put your trust in a complete stranger. It’s sweet how they start to overcome those challenges as they slowly get to know and understand and eventually love one another.

A very interesting twist on the original.
This features a more vulnerable Elizabeth and a rather desperate Darcy. Their mutual difficulties and need ties them both down a drastic path which they have to navigate together.
There are several original characters in this book and they are interesting and engaging making for a very pleasant reading experience.
