About this eBook

A Witty, Modern-English Retelling of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice—Perfect for Fans of Classic Romance and Accessible Literature

Fall in love with Pride and Prejudice all over again in this warm, witty, and emotionally grounded modern-English novella adaptation. Ideal for both new readers and longtime Austen fans, this charming reimagining brings the beloved story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy to life in a style that’s clear, engaging, and completely relatable—without losing the heart of the original.


When charming newcomer Mr. Bingley arrives in the quiet English town of Meryton, he turns the Bennet family’s world upside down—especially for Jane, the eldest and most gentle of the five Bennet sisters. But it’s Mr. Darcy, Bingley’s proud and mysterious friend, who leaves a lasting (and frustrating) impression on the spirited Elizabeth.

As misunderstandings grow and first impressions mislead, Elizabeth must decide what truly matters in love, life, and character.
