What starts misquoting Pride and Prejudice quickly transforms into a snarky, smart storyline with a heroine that is hard to forget and impossible to dislike.  Set in the modern publishing / promotional world of books, there is hardly a generalization about authors or writing that isn't pilloried to great effect.Each character in this story has a comparable character, complete with basic character traits, of the original Pride and Prejudice - a literary device that shows this author's skill and ability to modernize a classic the way it should be done: with true modernization and situations best suited to current readers.The story is cleverly written, and unless you are familiar with Austen's work and Pride and Prejudice in particular, you may just miss the referential misquotes and styling.  For fans of Austen, there is one quite steamy bedroom scene that would even make Jane blush, but it adds to rather than detracts from the story as it is presented.  A truly clever work that has spurred me to read others by this author - you can't beat a smart, funny read with well-developed characters that everyone can relate to easily.I received an eBook copy from the author for purpose of honest review for Jeep Diva Reviews. I was not compensated for this review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.
