The Darcys & the Bingleys

The Darcys & the Bingleys
Marsha Altman
2008

A tale of two gentlemen's marriages to two most devoted sisters.

Three days before their double wedding, Charles Bingley is desperate to have a word with his dear friend Fitzwilliam Darcy, seeking advice of a most delicate nature. Bingley is shocked when Darcy gives him a copy of The Kama Sutra--but it does tell him everything he needs to know.

Eventually, of course, Jane finds this remarkable volume and in utmost secrecy shows it to her dear sister Elizabeth, who goes searching for a copy in the Pemberley library...

By turns hilarious and sweet, The Darcys & the Bingleys follows the two couples and the cast of characters surrounding them. Miss Caroline Bingley, it turns out, has such good reasons for being the way she is that the reader can't help but hold her in charity. Delightfully, she makes a most eligible match, and in spite of Darcy's abhorrence of being asked fro advice, he and Bingley have a most enduring and adventure-prone friendship.

-Hayz's Review-
This is without a doubt the cutest and funniest Pride and Prejudice continuation ever! It is so funny! I was laughing my head off from the very beginning, Marsha Altman did an excellent job of writing this story!
