Book Synopses From Goodreads
Imagine that Jane Austen had written the opening line of her satirical novel Pride and Prejudice
this way: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in
possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a good romp and a good
wife — although not necessarily from the same person or from the
opposite sex." In Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts Mr. Darcy has never been more devilish and the seemingly chaste Elizabeth never more turned on.
The
entire cast of characters from Austen's classic is here in this rewrite
that goes all the way. This time Mr. Bingley and his sister both have
designs on Mr. Darcy's manhood; Elizabeth's bff Charlotte marries their
family's strange relation and stumbles upon a secret world of feminine
relations more to her liking; and, in this telling, men are not
necessarily the the only dominating sex. And of course there's some good
old fashioned bodice ripping that shows no pride or prejudice and
reveals hot hidden lusts in every page-turning chapter.
My Thoughts
I first saw this cover in my friend's goodreads page. She had been bragging on and on about Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts, and how erotic it was. First I thought Pride and Prejudice and erotic this two thing in one sentence! Sumi, you have finally lost it. But now that I have read it I must agree this was indeed one the erotic reads ever and absolutely beautiful adaptation on Austin's world.
Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice is second my second favorite in Austin's book. But Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts tops them all and I will read it again and again. I think Ms Szereto has made Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts into one of my guilty pleasure.
Knowing most of the characters from the original books and all the P&P movies,
I had a pretty good idea about the story line and the characters. I
think Ms Szereto did a brilliant job staying true to the original
storyline in spite of all the sexy action which I through fully enjoyed
while reading.
When I was reading the book Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen keep popping up in my head every time Mr Darcy had his beseechers off!
