The Cad, the Couch, and the Cut Direct: A Pride and Prejudice Variation by Jessie Lewis ★★★★★


Fitzwilliam Darcy is still bereft at his failure to win the love of Elizabeth Bennet.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth is heartbroken that she fell in love with Darcy, but he never returned for her.

A year later finds them both in London. 
A chance encounter in a gallery leads to what, may or may not have been "The Cut Direct".

The gallery contains a couch, which bears witness to much gossip, misunderstandings and mistaken identities. It is also where we encounter the Cad!

Cue many misguided efforts to correct mistakes, relaying messages to entirely the wrong person. 

Happy endings are of course guaranteed.

All in all, it is glorious mayhem.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
