Extended description

A Pride and Prejudice "What If?" Story

This retelling of Pride and Prejudice asks “what if” events prevented Fitzwilliam Darcy from proposing to Elizabeth Bennet that day at Hunsford parsonage? Darcy arrives with marriage on his mind, only to find that Elizabeth has just received news her father is critically ill and probably dying. In the process of offering his help to her in traveling home, he discovers what she really thinks of him—and it’s not good. Should Darcy deliver Elizabeth home to be with her family and then disappear from her life, or will he propose another kind of help? Will Elizabeth be willing to sacrifice her future happiness to save her family from financial ruin? Or, do she and Darcy, two very stubborn people, have a chance of finding happiness together?

Review by: Pensamiento Graphic on March 19, 2013 : star star star star
Esta variación de P&P es similar a la Abigail Reynolds con su("The Last Man in the World or Mr Fitzwillan Darcy") y a pesar que me gusta esta última autora mucho, tengo que inclinarme por la versión de Susan Mason porque no hay fingimiento de Elizabeth, Darcy sabe que ella no lo quiere y que inicia una lucha por ambos para que sea el amor que los una. Es una versión muy emotiva, realista muy bien escrita. (Aunque tengo que decir que mi versión favorita de este tipo específico de variación es de Jan Hahn con su "An arranged mariage")
Esta variación no le dejara indiferente.

Review by: Sofia Tirabassi on July 24, 2012 : star star star
Nothing new under the sun, but that should be expected when the starting point is... classical. However I enjoy it (but I am partial to Pride and Prejudice-like romance, I doubt you will relish it if you do not appreciate the struggle of Darcy and Eliza) it is better than many Abigail Reynolds "what if" and worse than few, but maybe is to similar to "The last man in the world". I appreciated very much the fact that some events that I expected to happen, did not happen.
