: Upon return to Hertfordshire in October of 1812 ‘in pursuit of game’, Darcy’s real purpose is forestalled by interfering interlopers, his good intention hindered by old habits that die hard, and his true aim thrown off by Bingley.: The writer’s extensive use of adjectives, adverbs, and motley-minded Elizabethan-era insults may be offensive to some.
A pun-filled tale featuring Jane Austen's characters with some added or addled, missing or missish, modified or mortified, healthier, wealthier, or wiser. Impeccable comportment is mandatory in Regency England, a society governed by strict rules of conduct. The immaculate image of perfectionist Fitzwilliam Darcy is somewhat tarnished when he and his traveling companions arrive, hot and sweaty, at Pemberley and decide to take a fateful plunge into a scummy pond. An embarrassing encounter on the estate's lawn leaves a long-lasting impression on Jane and Elizabeth Bennet, who are new acquaintances of Georgiana and Anna Darcy. With both families in London for the Little Season, Darcy finds himself thrown again into the path of perky Elizabeth Bennet, but a handsome army officer just might blockade further advances. This romantic comedy is a lighthearted adaptation of Austen’s , featuring a softer, sweeter, sillier side of Austen's beloved characters.
