A Pride and Prejudice retelling set around the turn of the 21st century in the sleepy south.

Here is a song to set the scene:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gh7R5zuIJI
It was actually filmed in the town that I grew up in and captures the feeling and nostalgia that comes from living in that kind of sleepy southern town.

And a playlist that captures the general vibe of the setting and time period: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzo8ckv0bFAzj3_hYeZhNNm8_0mrvJItxAll Rights Reserved

The Story Of Us - Wanda Maximoff x Reader by abimess_

(Original series from my tumblr @abimess) Summary: You and Wanda have known each other since you were little. And a love story that could've been as simple as a clichéd romantic comedy suffers the effects of stubbornness and immaturity, ending up becoming something almost like a Greek tragedy. So, this story is something I've been thinking about for a long time, but only now managed to organize it. Each chapter is inspired by a Taylor Swift song (because I'm that obsessed). Enjoy!

Pride And Prejudice, The Sequel by orangecobra

I have just finished reading Pride and Prejudice for the 100th time, and I really wanted to see how Elizabeth and Darcy handle their married life, so I decided to write my own sequel. This is just to satisfy my own wild side, I have never been to Great Britain (but I would love to!), and I know very little of the 19th century traditions. *I appreciate all the corrections I get on the culture/timeline/location/language/plotline dearly and would do my best to fix my mistakes in the story. I only request that you put a smiley face emoji at the end of a correction 😀. It is not a requirement, but it would be highly appreciated.

The Lost Journals of Fitzwilliam Darcy by Jesbug42

"The Lost Journals of Fitzwilliam Darcy" is a retelling of Jane Austen's classic novel "Pride and Prejudice" from the perspective of the enigmatic Mr. Darcy. Presented as a series of detailed journal entries, the story chronicles Darcy's innermost thoughts, feelings, and experiences as he navigates the complex social landscape of early 19th-century England. From the outset, Darcy's aloof and prideful demeanor sets him at odds with the spirited Elizabeth Bennet-whose wit and lack of deference both intrigue and confound him. Despite his initial resistance, Darcy finds himself increasingly drawn to Elizabeth, admiring her intelligence and vivacity. The narrative delves into Darcy's struggles with his own prejudices and the expectations imposed upon him by society and his station. It explores his pivotal role in the resolution of the scandal surrounding Elizabeth's sister Lydia and his ultimate confrontation with his aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, whose disapproval challenges his resolve. Throughout the story, Darcy undergoes a profound transformation, shedding his pride and coming to understand the value of humility and openness. His evolving relationship with Elizabeth, marked by misunderstanding and eventual reconciliation, leads to a deep and abiding love. Each journal entry captures the historical context of the era, including social customs, manners, and the intricate dy

The Compromising of Elizabeth Bennet: A pride and prejudice variation by NatalieToledo7

***COMPLETED*** What happens when Wickham reveals his true wicked nature much earlier than in the original Pride and Prejudice story? Unlike in Jane Austen's original novel Mr Wickham decides that he will attend the ball at Netherfield Park. Over confident, and enjoying Darcy's unease at his presence, Wickham gets carried away with his drink. He takes his flirting with Elizabeth Bennet entirely too far and his actions have far reaching consequences, changing the normal course of our Pride and Prejudice story. As Elizabeth is forced to reassess her judgements of the two men from Derbyshire, will our couple still find their happily ever after? How far are Wickham, Miss Bingley and Lady Catherine willing to go to stop them? **Warning this story contains a scene involving assault**

A Continued Affection by megosbornewrites

Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet acknowledge their true feelings for one another - Follows on from The Beginning of Hope

P&P by gabigailuh95

A modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice. After graduating high school, Lizzie Bennet is looking forward to doing nothing but reading book after book and drinking copious amounts of tea. But when the mansion at Netherfield Park is bought by the wealthy Charles Bingley, her summer plans are thwarted completely by her insane family. Twenty dollars from her mother is more than enough incentive for Lizzie to investigate (stalk) Netherfield Park's newest owner to see if he's good enough to date one of the Bennet girls. But Charles Bingley isn't the only one moving in - his beautiful, charming-but-catty sister Caroline and his not-so-charming best friend William Darcy are joining him for the summer as well. It's the same story we all know and love retold in our time. I hope you enjoy it!
