Historical romance is not my usual genre, but the author kindly provided me with an advanced copy of his debut, Mr. Darcy Parries Forth in Love, and I was happy to dive into his world.Written from a male point of view, fans of Austen's beloved Pride & Prejudice are afforded a rare sneak peek at the inner mental impressions of one of classic literature's most famous characters, Mr. Darcy.Upon turning the opening pages, it is immediately evident that Ayers has drizzled this magnificent novel with a healthy serving of sweet passion, and a dash of erotic flare. I was particularly fond of his portrayal of the deep connection which Mr. Darcy and Lizzy share, taking this connection one step further and exploring the passion that existed because of it. Mr. Darcy Parries Forth in Love is exactly what the title conveys, a story of unfettered love and passion.Ayers also explores some of Pride & Prejudice's minor characters in a new light, and I'll be most interested to see how these side-stories develop over the length of the series.So why only four stars? Because I think Mr. Ayers is just getting started, and as he becomes more and more at one with Mr. Darcy, I think his readers, his fans, can expect even greater musings.Well done and much kudos on a compelling first volume!
