Darcy's got the wealth and wit, but Elizabeth's heart is already spoken for. Cue the romance and shenanigans, because the game of love is about to get serious. **Elizabeth Bennet** It was supposed to be simple: come back to Derbyshire, see childhood friends, maybe fall in love. But that was before I realized George Darcy, the boy I'd set my heart on when I was just thirteen, was engaged to Lady Lucilla. Things I didn't expect this week: 1. Realizing I still had feelings for George. (Old habits die hard.) 2. Being warned off by his oh-so-serious older brother. (As if I'd listen!) 3. Finding myself in the middle of a love square? Love rhombus? Whatever it's called. 4. Being oddly drawn to the older Darcy brother. (His eyes... that's all I'm saying.) 5. Being the unintentional wrench in a seemingly perfect engagement. 6. Participating in the wittiest banter battles of my life. (With Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome, no less.) 7. Maybe... just maybe... reconsidering where my heart truly lies. **Fitzwilliam Darcy** I pride myself on being the responsible Darcy. But responsibility gets a tad complicated when Elizabeth Bennet storms back into our lives. This week's unforeseen complications: 1. Trying to keep my wayward brother, George, on the straight and narrow. (Impossible.) 2. Watching Elizabeth, with her sparkling eyes and razor-sharp wit, aim for George's heart. (Torture.) 3. Reminding myself I'm trying to keep her away for George's own good. (A lie I keep telling myself.) 4. Finding it increasingly challenging to keep my distance. (Why does she have to be so... captivating?) 5. Becoming entangled in a mess of love, loyalty, and longing. 6. Wishing, for the first time in my life, that I wasn't the responsible one. 7. Realizing that perhaps it's my heart that's at stake in this unexpected game of romance.

Disappointed hopes and the kindness of a stranger. Elizabeth Bennet is as content as a girl with a wounded heart can be. Mr. Bingley has returned to Jane with promising attentions, and all is well... except that no one knows what has become of Mr. Darcy. Shadowed by regrets of the past, Elizabeth means only to enjoy her tour of the Peaks with her aunt and uncle, declining a chance to view Pemberley. The party takes rooms at an inn, and Elizabeth discovers a very lonely gentleman has taken the room next to hers. Fitzwilliam Darcy has lost nearly all the people dearest to him. Too late to save some, and too humbled to reach out to others, he does the only thing he can think of. He leaves all his memories behind for a time, uncertain if or when he will ever return. On his way to Scotland, he stops in an unfamiliar town for the night, and finds a friend in the faceless voice next door. If only their paths would cross in the daylight, so he could learn who she is! As the nights pass, and casual exchanges become deep confidences, Darcy and Elizabeth each find their hearts aching for the one they lost. Elizabeth wishes with all her heart that she could see Mr. Darcy one more time, to let him know how her feelings have changed. The least she can do is advise this stranger in the next room not to give up hope on the woman he loves. When Darcy at last decides to seek Elizabeth Bennet and ask one more time for her hand, will he accidentally be riding away from her, instead? Find out in this delicious, gently paced story of mistakes and redemption. When The Sun Sleeps is a sweet Regency Novella of approximately 20,000 words.

Taking it off in the name of history… Thirty-five-year-old American social media master Vanessa Roberts lives her thoroughly modern life with aplomb. So when her elderly Jane Austen–centric aunt needs her to take on the public relations for Julian Chancellor, a very private man from England who’s written a book called My Year as Mr. Darcy, Vanessa agrees. But she’s not “excessively diverted,” as Jane Austen would say. Hardbound books, teacups, and quill pens fly in the face of her e-reader, coffee, and smartphone… …Until she sees Julian take his tight breeches off for his Undressing Mr. Darcy show, an educational “striptease” down to his drawers to promote his book and help save his crumbling estate. The public relations expert suddenly realizes things have gotten…personal. But can this old-fashioned man claim her heart without so much as a GPS? It will take three festivals filled with Austen fans, a trip to England, an old frenemy, and a flirtatious pirate re-enactor to find out…

And more importantly, which Mr. Darcy will Elizabeth choose? Find out as the two brothers lock horns in this unique Pride & Prejudice variation collectively written by five respected authors.

Look for more about Theo on Facebook (www.facebook.com/theophilusdarcy), Goodreads (www.goodreads.com/book/show/23084952-the-darcy-brothers), and on The Darcy Brothers website (www.thedarcybrothers.com). Praise for Abigail Reynolds "If you are unfamiliar with these riveting and romantic variations, they are retellings of Pride and Prejudice that take our beloved hero and heroine down a slightly altered path. Abigail Reynolds, one of my favorite Austenesque authors, is a skilled-story teller, an ardent admirer of Jane Austen, and quite proficient at infusing a lot of emotion, tension, and passion into her stories!" Austenesque Reviews "If romantics can overlook the subversion, they should enjoy witnessing Elizabeth as an industrious and caring wife, administering to Pemberley's tenants, learning how to be an equestrian and growing to love that perplexing Darcy." Publishers Weekly Praise for Cassandra Grafton "This book is a total delight for anyone who is a fan of Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, Regency romance and... oh, just romance in general. Ms Grafton writes beautifully and has a descriptive style that can make small things into beautiful wonders." Tess Quinn, Goodreads "Through witty dialog and beautiful Regency language, this book is in the style of Jane Austen herself. I cannot recommend it highly enough. It ranks among the best of the Austenesque novels that I have read." More Agreeably Engaged Praise for Maria Grace "Grace has quickly become one of my favorite authors of Austen-inspired fiction. Her love of Austen's characters and the Regency era shine through in all of her novels." Diary of an Eccentric "A great read for any Jane Austen fan-fiction lover. With great characters, witty writing, and a swoon-worthy romance, Maria Grace's Given Good Principles series is a solid addition to your bookshelf." Austenprose Praise for Monica Fairview "This novel stands very well on its own as a Regency Romance, but for the Janeites among its readers it's important to know how well Monica Fairview treats the beloved characters from Pride and Prejudice." All About Romance "Infused with humor ... Fairview has proven again why she was my top choice of Austenesque debut authors of 2009. She is well on her way to becoming a nonpareil in Austen paraliterature and I recommend The Darcy Cousins to those who dearly love a satisfying love story and a hearty laugh." Austenprose Praise for Susan Mason-Milks "Susan Mason-Milks pens a Pride and Prejudice variation that explores an untraveled road in Jane Austen's classic novel...As you may guess, this path to true love has a whole lot more more ruts and turns for our hero and heroine..." Austenesque Reviews "After reading it I find myself even more enamored of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. I think this is a true testament to how beautifully Susan Mason-Milks crafted this "what if" version of Pride and Prejudice. - Valeehill
