Penned by Mr Darcy by Claudia Lomond ★★★★☆
When Jane Bennet is taken ill while dining at Netherfield Park, she is forced to take refuge under Mr Bingley's roof.
Her loving sister Elizabeth comes to check on her and finding Jane very unwell, stays to nurse her.
In addition to her worries for Jane, she faces Caroline Bingley's chilly welcome and Fitzwilliam Darcy's haughty arrogance.
When she finds a partially burnt missive in the library fireplace, idle curiosity turns to something more, when she realises that the outpouring of longing and lust may be about her.
When Elizabeth comes across Darcy's diary outside Netherfield, she pockets it.
Burning curiosity overcomes respect for Darcy's privacy.
What she reads, helps her to understand and appreciate the man but will he ever forgive her?
I enjoyed the story, although I kept yelling at her to stop invading his privacy!
An awkward, though passionate Darcy, a flawed but delightful Elizabeth and a seriously intimidating Wickham.
Another pleasing read from Claudia Lomond.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
