From Pemberley to Manhattan [COMPLETED]
People are never ready for the impossible. When Mr. Darcy discovered a trespasser in his lands, he imagined the young man to simply be a lost drunk from the village. Never would he have guessed that the man was a brilliant scientist. And the first time traveler in History. Let alone would Mr. Darcy suppose that he himself would become the second man to ever travel through time. Yet, he did. Mr. Darcy accidentally ended up in the twenty-first century. At first, he desired nothing but to return to his beloved Pemberley. However, as he discovers the magical powers of technology and makes the strangest - yet kindest - friends, he wonders if, when the time comes, he will have the strength to return to when he belongs. Especially now, that he would have to leave behind a lovely lady who enchanted him. A lady with a lot of personality and mesmerizing green eyes.

Pride and Prejudice
"Pride and Prejudice is an 1813 romantic novel of manners written by Jane Austen. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book, who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and eventually comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. A classic piece filled with comedy, its humour lies in its honest depiction of manners, education, marriage and money during the Regency era in Great Britain. Mr Bennet of Longbourn estate has five daughters, but because his property is entailed it can only be passed from male heir to male heir. Consequently, Mr Bennet's family will be destitute upon his death. Because his wife also lacks an inheritance, it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well to support the others upon his death, which is a motivation that drives the plot. Jane Austen's opening line--"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife"-is a sentence filled with irony and sets the tone for the book. The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love, not simply for economic gain or social prestige, despite the communal pressure to make a good (i.e., wealthy) match." -Wikipedia More readable version of "Pride and Prejudice" from the Gutenberg library.Complete
