I still need to try one of her books in her Mr. Darcy mystery series. One more down even if it was a so-so one.

"This is a modern adaptation of Pride& Prejudice, set in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. William Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet meet under false circumstances set in motion by her sister, Lydia. A whirlwind romance ensues, complete with mistaken identities, sometimes-difficult family members, and inevitable misunderstandings."


103 Darcy Comes Undone: Elizabeth's Regret
104 Darcy Comes Undone: Elizabeth's Redemption
These were only 3 star reads mainly because of th endings. The next book in line started with a complete retelling of the last chapter of the previous book, word for word. This would have maid 4 star read if it had been one book

I hate this trend to put out 1/4 of a book and charge 4 times to get one story! Especially like this with only 41 pages/book.
Library Robbery!

OK, so four books at what? $2.99 per book so you pay $12 for a complete kindle book - robbery.


I agree. Though, once I started that and then found a "compilation" of them was available for FREE with my Kindle Unlimited subscription. I quickly asked for refunds and just read the free version. Just release as a collection or not at all. So annoying.

257) Second Opinions: A Lizzy and Dr. Darcy Story 3.5 stars
258) Darkness Falls Upon Pemberley: A Supernatural Pride & Prejudice Novella 4.5 stars
259) Mr. Darcy Steals A Girl: A Sensual Pride and Prejudice Variation 1 star MA SHORT
260) Fitzwilliam Darcy, Rock Star 5 stars
261) Unequal Affections: A Wedding Day Vignette 4 stars
262) The Second Mrs. Darcy: A Pride & Prejudice Variation Novella 4 stars
263) Darcy's Carriage Ride: A Sensual Pride and Prejudice Variation 1 star MA SHORT
I will say that 4 of these were really short, but I don't make the length, I just read!! HA! If you have not ventured into modern P&P you may be missing out!!

What is the name of the compilation on KU? I have a subscription to that.

Good work. I did read and enjoyed the Rock Star one even tho' the title is a bit off-setting.

All three books for $8.97 - still pretty steep and it was not under KU when I checked on Amazon.

I recieved this book free as a member of her page Leenie's Sweetie's and I really enjoyed it. this is a sequel to Discovering Mr Darcy. It is amazing to find I like Lady Catherine in this and that she had a sense of humor.

Lenora, how are you liking the Mr. Bennet's Level? You are moving right along.
Sheila, you're passing me up girl. Way to go!!

I love reading all the progress updates here. You guys are great for showing me books I didn't even know about. :)

Ah, shucks! Thanks, Jeanne. It's easy peasy with great people.

Elizabeth believes herself not a true lady and thus unworthy for any man to marry. Mom is dead and Dad is blind. E. manages the estate.
That does sound good, Sheila.
And you are so right. Maria Grace is a terrific ambassador for JAFF and a classy lady.

Then you gave her two of the greatest gifts a reader can give an author- a purchase and a review. :) Now I need to trot over and read it to see what you have to say.

Awesome. I look forward to reading your reviews!

LOL, Lenora! It really is a splendid place to get away and relax, right? Sit with some friends, read some books, and get excellent service from the staff. :)
