The Other Mr Darcy
From Robert Hale, UK edition
Other-Mr-Darcy-for-web.JPG

It is universally acknowledged that proper ladies do not fall to the ground and sob, no matter what the circumstances. When Caroline Bingley, of all people, falls apart at Mr Darcy’s wedding, she does not think anyone is watching. Imagine her humiliation when she discovers that a stranger has witnessed her emotional display. Miss Bingley, understandably, resents this unknown gentleman, even if he is Mr Darcy’s American cousin.

 

And a year later, when she is forced to travel to Pemberley with him, she still has not forgiven him. But her attempts to snub him fail completely, and, as the Bennets descend upon them, Caroline finds herself spending more and more time in his company, with her rigid standards of behaviour slipping slowly away. Meanwhile this other Mr Darcy, inescapable and enigmatic as Providence, questions her at every turn…
 
Inspired by the beloved Pride and Prejudice, THE OTHER MR DARCY takes the much maligned Caroline Bingley, and, setting her in the cultural context of Jane Austen's world, shows us the woman behind the mask. At the same time, it presents us with a new hero whose family resemblance to Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy is unmistakable.

An Improper Suitor Reviews
 
"one of the best Regency stories I’ve read for a while."
"...the hero was of course delicious..."
Anne Herries/Linda Sole, regency writer,

"Regency romances do not get any better than this! Monica Fairview is sure to be a favourite with readers of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer for her writing is crisp and eloquent, her descriptions of Regency society superb and evocative and her ability to tell a powerful romantic story rich in intrigue and emotion absolutely brilliant!" Julie Bonello, SingleTitles.com

"a wonderful heartwarming tale of a man and woman trying to make sense of their feelings for one another...I almost cried and some of the events were truly hilarious."
 
"a lovely story, especially with the addition of Julia’s eccentric family and Thornwynn’s hypochondriac mother...a joy to read."
 
"A great tale and entertaining romp through an unlikely and unconventional courtship, with a truly romantic denoument.
Catherine Jones, Chair
