'Intrigue At Longbourn' is probably the most authentic 'Pride & Prejudice' derivative you will ever read. 

Elizabeth Bennet enjoys a lively six months before Netherfield Park is let at last. She is appalled to learn that a pregnant teenage kitchen maid, Alice, was dismissed from Longbourn House eight or nine years earlier with no thought for her welfare or that of her unborn child. 

Unable to involve her family on the occasion, she approaches the recently arrived, handsome, young rector of Longbourn parish, Mr Wilde, and he agrees to assist her in secret. Their apparently clandestine association is noticed and misinterpreted by some.

Meanwhile, to secure the family's future, Mr Bennet embarks on a complicated, high-risk scheme which is ultimately in danger of spiralling out of control.

Holidays provide welcome diversions and the social scene is enhanced by a young scientist named Julius Fairweather.  

Nevertheless, father's and daughter's separate manoeuvres inevitably clash as the summer races inexorably towards Michaelmas of 1797 when a young man of large fortune named Bingley first enters the neighbourhood.  

...Become better acquainted with the characters in Jane Austen's magnificent 'Pride & Prejudice' and prepare yourself for the sequel, 'Menace At Pemberley'...

...Witness the first encounters between Elizabeth and Darcy... 

...Read the first chapter of 'Menace At Pemberley' which begins immediately after Elizabeth and Darcy marry and continues with a large Christmas family gathering at Pemberley as foretold in 'Pride & Prejudice'...

Written in a classic, easy-to-read, literary style, 'Intrigue At Longbourn' is a well-researched account of life in the late eighteenth century for the landed gentry and others and is a tribute to literary icon Jane Austen.

"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

"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.

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.

Edith Banfield, once young and foolish, had accepted the unpleasant and boring life she'd found herself in. Long before the observant William Turnbridge arrived in her small village, at least. With an absent husband, a lack of allies and a family so far in the past, she never expected things to change after the choices she'd made, despite how much she wished they would. When Edith's husband is reunited with an old friend, the very fabric of the life she knows is about to rip open. Once stuck in a routine, now her days are filled with uncertainty, propelled by a hope she had long forgotten. And the consequences she will face are far greater than anything she might expect.
