The Other Mr Darcy Did you know Mr Darcy had an American cousin? Monica Fairview 0760789226472 Books

For a Pride and Prejudice sequel this one is very well thought out and well written. The main character's of the story will be Caroline Bingley and Mr. Robert Darcy, the cousin of Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.

The story starts with Caroline having an emotional breakdown at the celebration of the Lizzy and Darcy's wedding. She goes to the library to console herself by having a good cry. What she doesn't know is that Mr. Robert Darcy is in the Library, in the shadows, looking for a book and having a drink. He is witness to Caroline's meltdown.

As the story develops we will watch as Caroline Bingley has to deal with learning to let herself go emotionally and that it will not mean that she gives up being a Lady. For Robert Darcy he must contend with Caroline's feelings that he is not gentlemanly enough. It seems like Pride and Prejudice all over again, but with different characters.

For me I grew to dislike Caroline and Louisa Bingley in the original book. I did not like their high brow ways and the constant banter about the Bennett's and country society. So, I needed to have some real tenacity to keep reading. But Monica Fairview drew me in and had me watching Caroline blossom into a Lady that was someone you could actually like and cheer for, hoping that God would bless her life with a man to love. The only question being is Mr. Robert Darcy that man.

I really did love the book and thought it a great sequel to the original work by Jane Austen. I think if you are an Austen fan you will enjoy reading about how Caroline can change, how she can grow, how she can come to discover that marriage is about love and not about society and upbringing and what you will gain financially.

Now the only question is, will Louisa Bingley Hurst ever change?

Enjoy!

The Other Mr Darcy Did you know Mr Darcy had an American cousin? Monica Fairview 0760789226472 Books Reviews

This novel was an easy read and I gave it 4 stars because it kept my interest and it was different in many ways from the other P & P variations I have read. This novel focused on Caroline Bingley and Robert Darcy, Fitzwilliam Darcy's cousin from America.
The bantering between Robert and Caroline was well written and kept my interest in the story. Lizzy was referred to as Eliza in this novel and Darcy was referred to as Fitz. They were mostly in the background in the story. Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam was also in the background.
I thought somewhere in the novel that Rev. Bass was going to court Mary Bennet but that didn't pan out in the book. I also saw Kitty mature in this novel since she had been away from Lydia.
Tragedy strikes Wickham. Mrs. Bennet is her usual self. Misunderstandings and secrets along with a few small lies are told but love wins in the end. Ms. Fairview did a wonderful job to keep all interested, however, I would have liked to hear Caroline's view of Robert Darcy's estate. Oh well, maybe next time.
Fitzwilliam Darcy's American cousin, Robert Darcy is the polar opposite of him. Robert Darcy is more charismatic, fun, and doesn't analyze situations completely. Our Austen's Pride and Prejudice hero, Fitzwilliam Darcy is stoic, difficult, and analyzing almost everything to a fault. This book is mainly about Caroline Bingley, and she is nothing like Austen's Caroline. The Caroline, after crying and sobbing in one of the rooms on Elizabeth and Darcy's wedding day celebration at Netherfield, just sounds hopeless. She is not aware she has company to hear her remarks and sobbing. Eventually making himself known, Caroline is mortified that he's heard her ranting. When he introduces himself, Caroline' s, shock makes her speechless for a time. When introduces himself, she cannot believe the resemblance between the two gentlemen. Months after the wedding, Robert Darcy shows up at Netherfield. Fitzwilliam Darcy has requested that the family, especially Jane, come to Pemberley to help run the house and try to lift Elizabeth's morale. She's had a miscarriage and is really depressed. Family would really mean a lot to both Darcys if they came. Jane and Bingley leave as soon as they are packed. Robert, Colonel Fitzwilliam, Louisa Hurst, now a widow, and Caroline follow when they can get packed and wait for the Colonel. Robert and Caroline are at heads, because she doesn't have faith in him to successfully plan stops along the way. Fitzwilliam tells him to take the Northern Road to Pemberley. Richard agrees, and they set out. Along the way, they hit traffic going to the Fair. They get stopped by a herd of geese moving slowly along by drivers herding them along the road. There are thousands, and they cannot be moved to the grass or they wouldn't be moving, but eating. Richard has a friend in the area that hopefully will put them up for the night. The Loughs have invited them to stay at Emelton Hall. They are having a house party, but they have room. That night at the ball, Robert Darcy asks her to dance. She pitched the dance "The Reel," and he was an excellent dancer. Throughout the night, he was in demand by all the ladies. That night Colonel Fitzwilliam tumbles through a proposal to Caroline. Taken by surprise, she tells him she'll think about it. Well, by the next morning everyone is wishing her happiness for her betrothal to Sir Cecil Rynes. Thinking Robert told everyone, she is really mad at him. In the game room, Mr. and Mrs. Olmstead wish her happiness. She explains that she not engaged to Sir Cecil, and if she doesn't stop the rumor, he'll be mad thinking she started the rumor. Mr. Olmstead come up with a plan to stop the rumor. Robert Darcy announces to the gathering that he and Miss Bingley are betrothed (fake betrothal). This makes Colonel Fitzwilliam mad at her, so now she has potentially two men angry and one man that she doesn't want to be engaged to. She's is being so good that all this bad stuff keeps happening seems unreal. Colonel Fitzwilliam doesn't resume the trip to Pemberley so the three leave on the fourth day. When they get to Pemberley, Caroline rushes to see what she can do to help Lizzy. Lydia shows up, uninvited and unannounced. Wickham has run off with a married woman, and he tells her he's not coming back for her. She wants Lizzy, but when told she was ill, she goes to Jane. Instead of coming baby regular coach, two strangers, Mrs Miles and Mr Trewson, give her a lift because they just happened to be going in that direction. These newcomers are brother and sister and are well spoken and well mannered. Caroline has doubts about the couple so writes her friend from Newcastle. When Robert announces his and Caroline's betrothal, everyone, but Darcy is happy. Later, he summons her and really lets her have it. She's not good enough, because her family was in trade. Mercenary and tenacious because of how rich Robert is, and she couldn't get him so she'll settle for the heir to Pemberley. Stunned she was. Later when she tells Robert what happened and that they should end the fake engagement, Robert tells her the sad secret that has Lizzy so depressed. When she miscarried, the doctor told them that she'd never have any children. Really upset for Lizzy, anything and everything she did to help so Lizzy could rest. They also took charge of the small ball. Bet
