Change of Heart by Tina Marie Noel

Change of Heart by Tina Marie Noel

In this Pride and Prejudice re-telling, Lady Catherine would be well and truly within her rights to say that Elizabeth had used her female guile and accoutrements to turn Darcy's head.

She flirts outrageously and use double entendres, stroking Mr Darcy's snooker cue while telling Mr Darcy she likes to play with his stick.

This is definitely not an Elizabeth that Jane Austen would have liked and some might say it slips into the category of housewife porn. But this elizabeth does the impossible, she changes Lady Catherine's heart as well.

Lady Catherine even coming to the defence of Elizabeth with a serious dressing down to Caroline Bingley and her friend for this alone the book has to be worth reading. because, let's face it wouldn't we all love to give Caroline Bingley a verbal slap around the face and who could  possibly do it better that the totally acidic Lady Catherine DeBourgh. yes this is smutty but at least it is entertaining smut.
Masses of fumbling and heaving breasts.

Even Jane gets a bit naughty and that is very out of character.

Pride and Prejudice - The Thug Notes Summary

Sara Baartman - You should watch this, very moving.

All my Friends should watch this it is very moving The Story of Sara Baartman Who died in 1815 Some of this film is sexualy explicit & rather harrowing .

Only A Heartbeat Away by P.O.Dixon

 

P.O.Dixon - Only A Heartbeat Away

So I was looking forward to reading this book and dived in eagerly.

Darcy goes to the Mereton Assembly but Elizabeth is not there, Elizabeth is at the Netherfield Ball, but Darcy is Absent.

I was beginning to think that they would never meet.

Elizabeth had already travelled to Pemberly and instead of meeting Darcy she has met up with Georgina and become friends through correspondence and she eventually meets up with Darcy through Georgina at a ball in London.

I loved the way P.O. Dixon changed the situations completely but still stayed true to the story. Making an interesting tale that you wanted to keep reading, just to see how she would get all the main characters to the places they needed to be.

Grab a copy and jump in!

Passions of Dr Darcy by Sharon Latham

Passions of Dr Darcy 

Sharon Latham

It is a considerably long time since I reviewed an Austen prequel or sequel. I was in need of a new battery for my pacemaker and thought I would take the opportunity of forced rest to read something that I had fancied tucking into  for quite some time.

I say tucking into as these books are not small or light! I embarked on George RR Martins Game of Thrones books, spurned on by the sumptuous television series.

I did take quite a while to finish all five books in the series and now I am left wanting more.

But thankfully I had Sharon Lathams latest book to kickstart my Jane Austen obsession.

Passions of Dr Darcy brought me happily back into that world again.

I have enjoyed the character of the irrepressible Dr Darcy in Sharon's series of tales of Darcy and Elizabeths adventures and I was delighted that she had chosen to give him a book of his own. Telling his vivid back story and taking us all along with him through his loves and heart breaks in the exciting Indian sub-continent. 

Enlisted as a Doctor for the East India Company and very eager to learn every bit of medical knowledge and practice the new found techniques his already glowing reputation growing quickly.

He is sort after professionally, but his love life is not as smooth as his professional life. In fact the poor fellow really has a terrible time with the ladies.

I really enjoyed this rich colourful book almost smelling the spices and seeing the Dr Darcy's colourful outfits. I can totally relate to his choice as I live in Malaysia and have chosen to wear traditional Indian clothes for comfort.

If you have not read this book yet, well, move it up your list. It's worth it.
