Three stars for effort! When I pay $3.99 for a 90 page novella I expect a great story. This is NOT a Pride and Prejudice variation that has any relationship to the original. The author has used the character names, but it has no similarity to the Regency era. Elizabeth used "hell" and "damn" in her speech and both Darcy and Elizabeth, who in the original were highly conscious of propriety, seemed to flaunt acceptable conduct by placing each other in compromising situations. As a P&P variation, I absolutely cannot recommend this. If the author had not tried to tap into the popularity of Jane Austen and marketed this as a cute, short romance instead and reduced the price to something more reasonable I could recommend and give more stars. As it is - save your money. It is NOT a great story. Check out the sample for proof. So NOT worth the price.
