Author: Carolyn Miller & Meredith Resce
Your new favourite rom-com retelling of Miss Austen's classic! It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a man in charge of a large fortune must be in want of a wife. Or so Liam Darcy’s grandma insists, and his sister, Georgia, agrees.
But no sweet grandmotherly ultimatum or sassy sister dare can influence Liam to go so far outside his comfort zone as hunt for a woman to marry. That is until new-to-town Elissa Bennett makes an appearance. Hey, a dare is a dare, right?
But Liam's attempts to impress end in disaster, and feisty Elissa is not afraid to say so. Liam Darcy is the last person on earth she’d be tempted to date. Until sparks fly…
One could argue that the Pride and Prejudice retellings have been way overdone, but I enjoyed this story because of its unique setting and plot devices. The characters were fun, there was plenty of humor, and the romance was clean and sweet. Liam and Elissa were my favorite characters, but the authors did such a good job of recreating the characters from Pride and Prejudice in their own unique way that it was easy to be captivated by them and their difficulties. If you need a short, funny story to read, I highly recommend this one!
