Book Description
Alone with Mr. Darcy.... Elizabeth Bennet can't imagine anything worse than being stranded by a blizzard in a tiny cottage with proud and unpleasant Mr. Darcy. But being trapped there for days - and nights - with an injured and confused Mr. Darcy who keeps saying the oddest things about her is even worse. At least he possesses the useful ability of lighting a fire to keep them from freezing to death. But when he puts his arms around her, she discovers the hearth isn't the only place he knows how to build a fire. And the little half-frozen kitten he finds in a woodpile isn't proving to be much of a chaperone. She doesn't really believe his promises to marry her if anyone finds out they spent two nights alone together, especially after learning he was betrayed by another woman in the past. When her worst fears are realized and her reputation is in tatters, she isn't surprised to discover Mr. Darcy has vanished into thin air, leaving her no choice but to find a husband as soon as possible before her whole family is ruined. Any husband will have to do, no matter how much she dislikes him. Even if she can't stop thinking of Mr. Darcy.... Praise for Abigail Reynolds "If you are unfamiliar with these riveting and romantic variations, they are retellings of Pride and Prejudice that take our beloved hero and heroine down a slightly altered path. Abigail Reynolds, one of my favorite Austenesque authors, is a skilled-story teller, an ardent admirer of Jane Austen, and quite proficient at infusing a lot of emotion, tension, and passion into her stories!" Austenesque Reviews "If romantics can overlook the subversion, they should enjoy witnessing Elizabeth as an industrious and caring wife, administering to Pemberley's tenants, learning how to be an equestrian and growing to love that perplexing Darcy." Publishers Weekly

Book Description
She couldn't imagine what it would be like, to be spirited off to some virtual stranger's house in a cold carriage and told that that was now her home, that it was where she now belonged. It was only women, Elizabeth Bennet thought with hot frustration, who were told that who they were was defined by who they lived with. Why? Why was it that men were free to live as they pleased and none of it was contingent on taking a wife? They could easily live a fulfilled life with pleasures abounding whether they married or remained bachelors for the duration of their days. It was not so for women, and that was a bitter pill indeed for a spirited woman like Elizabeth.

Book Description
When his wife Elizabeth expresses an interest in horseriding, Mr. Darcy is only too happy to surprise her with a gift: a beautiful chestnut mare, suitable for sidesaddle rides across the grounds of Pemberley, and beyond. One sunny summer's day, our dear couple rides across the Derbyshire hills for a picnic. Passionate Mr. Darcy wonders if he might surprise his wife once more... MR. DARCY'S SURPRISE is the fourth book of LOVE COMES TO PEMBERLEY, a series of steamy stories exploring moments of intimacy and love in Our Dear Couple's newlywed lives. It follows the consummation and consolidation of their vows, and must therefore be enjoyed only by adult readers. Each of the stories in LOVE COMES TO PEMBERLEY are standalone tales, designed to be read in one sitting. There is no need to have read any of the others to enjoy this one, but it may be most agreeable to read them in sequence.

Book Description
One island. One murder. One bed. Miss Elizabeth Bennet refused Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy's proposal months ago, but he’s just announced that they’re married. Admittedly, they are in a strange situation. They’re stuck on a small island off the coast of Brighton and they’ve just been discovered standing over the dead body of Mr. George Wickham. Neither of them killed him, of course. But one of the other six occupants on this island did, and now they are all trapped there for four days until a ferry comes. Elizabeth is glad enough to be granted Mr. Darcy’s protection—she is a woman alone, unchaperoned due to a series of unfortunate events, and being thought his wife does make things easier for her. Until they learn that there is only one room in the inn on the island for them. With one bed. Dear reader, this variation could not be termed precisely clean, but I assure wary readers that the romantic tension is far more prevalent than the, er, action. Though this variation has a body count, I believe it's one of my lighter offerings. I hope it's enjoyable.

Book Description
Mr Darcy's Proposal, is a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice. Included are all the main characters, but their journey is slightly different to one Miss Austen created. This story has a dash more excitement, and a touch more love. Fitzwilliam Darcy, realising he can no longer ignore or suppress his feelings for Elizabeth Bennet, returns to Hertfordshire only one week after leaving. But even the best-laid plans can go awry, and his first encounter with Elizabeth is disastrous, leaving her with the same opinion of him as before. When Elizabeth's father visit's Mr Darcy and insists on him joining the family for dinner, Darcy reluctantly accepts. While the men are alone, enjoying a brandy, Mr Darcy confides in Mr Bennet the true depth of his love and admiration for Elizabeth, while assuring him that his intentions are strictly honourable. Reluctantly, Mr Bennet agrees when Darcy asks permission to court Elizabeth, confident that his favourite daughter will refuse the austere and unapproachable, Mr Darcy. However, Mr Bennet insists on one stipulation. Darcy has only one month, until Christmastide, to win Elizabeth's heart, by which time Elizabeth MUST declare her love for him. If she fails to do this, then Darcy must leave Meryton and forget her forever. Darcy agrees, confident of his success. Tentatively, he begins to woo his beloved. Then, just as things seem to be progressing nicely, Caroline Bingley, George Wickham and Elizabeth's own sister, Lydia, throw everything into jeopardy. Caroline's reckless actions force Mr Darcy and Elizabeth, together with Mr Bennet, Mr Bingley and Georgiana, to set off for London, where Darcy is determined to deal with his nemesis once and for all. Mr Darcy's Proposal uses English grammar, spelling and historical terms and phrases throughout.

Book Description
The secret baby JAFF you didn’t know you wanted! The night of the Netherfield Ball, Fitzwilliam Darcy watches Elizabeth Bennet dance twice with Mr. William Collins and knows what the man intends. When Mr. Darcy’s own dance with the lady in question goes disastrously, he despairs of ever wooing her from the man who duty demands she wed. He takes solace in absinthe, as one does. Elizabeth is not the least bit pleased at the prospect of marrying Mr. Collins and begins drinking heavily, too. When a very inebriated Mr. Darcy appears and takes her off to his room, she doesn’t resist. She doesn’t resist anything at all. Morning dawns, and all his drunken promises of marriage have evaporated. He doesn’t remember bedding her. She has no choice but to marry Mr. Collins. Especially when she realizes that Mr. Darcy’s seed has taken root in her, and she will now bear his child. Passing another man’s child off as her husband’s is an ignominious future Elizabeth had not wished for herself, but nothing matters now except survival. Hers and her unborn child’s. It’s only unfortunate, of course, that she’s going to settle so near to Mr. Darcy’s close relation Lady Catherine. Elizabeth would like nothing more than to never see Mr. Darcy again. But he will visit Rosings. He will see her. And he will see his son. Dear reader, this is a bit of angsty fluff that should hurt in all the best ways. Do watch out for a very dastardly Wickham, who is portrayed here as a clear predator and rapist—yes, it’s dark. Obviously, if Lizzy and Darcy are having a drunken interlude at Netherfield, I’m narrating every single scandalous second of it. Steam alert! You have been warned.

Book Description
When Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy barges half-dressed into the room where Miss Elizabeth Bennet is staying at Netherfield, apparently on the run from Miss Caroline Bingley’s attempt to engineer a compromise and trap him in a marriage, he claims to have compromised Elizabeth instead. Elizabeth is not pleased at this turn of events, considering that Mr. Darcy is the most arrogant and altogether worst man she has ever met. She’s particularly displeased at having her choices taken away and being obliged to become this man’s wife. Mr. Darcy’s ardent admiration of her is some consolation, however, and there is something to be said for the way he seems to be able to reduce her shivers with a look. They have a connection, something powerful, physical, and undeniable. If only Miss Bingley weren’t determined to work her revenge on the newlyweds, and if only Mr. Darcy’s past with a certain Mr. Wickham weren’t lurking in the shadows, ready to rear its ugly head. Dear reader, this is a quintessential Valerie Lennox JAFF—winking irreverence, a dollop of angst, and enough steam to choke on. It returns to some of my favorite tropes and situations (forced marriage, a scheming Caroline, a darker Mr. Darcy) and gives them a little bit of a different spin. I sincerely hope you enjoy!

Book Description
Allein mit Mr. Darcy... Elizabeth Bennet kann sich nichts Schlimmeres vorstellen, als während eines Schneesturms in einem winzigen Cottage mit dem stolzen und unfreundlichen Mr. Darcy festzusitzen. Dort aber über Tage – und auch Nächte dazu – mit einem verletzten und verwirrten Mr. Darcy gefangen zu sein, der immer wieder die seltsamsten Dinge über sie sagt, ist sogar noch schlimmer. Zumindest besitzt er die nützliche Fähigkeit, ein Feuer zu entfachen, sodass sie sich nicht zu Tode frieren müssen. Als er aber seine Arme um sie legt, findet sie heraus, dass er nicht nur im Kamin ein Feuer entfachen kann. Und das kleine halberfrorene Kätzchen, das er im Holzstoß findet, ist auch keine brauchbare Anstandsdame. Sie nimmt ihm seine Versprechungen, sie zu heiraten, falls jemand etwas darüber herausfindet dass sie zwei Nächte allein verbracht haben, nicht wirklich ab, insbesondere nachdem sie herausfindet, dass er in der Vergangenheit von einer anderen Frau verraten wurde. Als ihre schlimmsten Befürchtungen wahr werden und ihr guter Ruf zerstört ist, wundert es sie nicht, dass sich Mr. Darcy rarmacht und ihr keine andere Wahl lässt, als sich schnellstmöglich einen Ehemann zu suchen, bevor ihre gesamte Familie ruiniert ist. Jeder Gatte wäre nun recht, ganz gleich, wie sehr er ihr wiederstrebt. Auch wenn sie nicht aufhören kann, an Mr. Darcy zu denken. ~*~ Lob für Abigail Reynolds: „Falls Ihnen diese fesselnden und romantischen Pemberley-Variationen nicht bekannt sind: Es handelt sich dabei um Abwandlungen von Stolz und Vorurteil („Pride and Prejudice“), die unsere geliebten Romanhelden auf einen etwas anderen Weg schicken. Abigail Reynolds, eine meiner liebsten unter den Austen-esken Autorinnen, ist eine talentierte Geschichtenerzählerin, eine glühende Verehrerin von Jane
