New - Very light self wear, if any.

See photos for more detail.

In 2004 Linda Berdoll's first novel, the wildly successful Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife, dared to do the unthinkable. It took a peek into the Darcy's nuptial chamber. Ms. Berdoll's passionately explicit Pride & Prejudice sequels have been hailed as sexy, hilarious and poignant. They have not only won awards and critical praise, they have spawned a new literary genre: the Jane Austen Sequel. 

Ms. Berdoll followed Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife with Darcy & Elizabeth in 2006 and the Ruling Passion in 2011.

The Darcys: New Pleasures takes place in the year 1835.

Mr Darcy has long been every woman's ideal. Darkly handsome, he is a gentleman of vast wealth and exceptional leg. His virility, whilst of considerable note, is not what invites our adoration. His true allure remains his all-encompassing love for his wife. Indeed, Elizabeth and Darcy's passion for each other is ever steadfast.

In this, Ms. Berdoll's 4th continuation, there is but one test that stands in the way of the Darcys' boundless happiness. It is an ordeal familiar to parents through the ages. Their offspring have come of age and are eager to pursue their own love affairs.

Moreover, Elizabeth Darcy, the Mistress of Pemberley, has been overtaken by a peculiar malaise. Her disorder has the entire family in a state of agitation. Darcy is particularly uneasy. Hence, when he learns that his son engaged in a flirtation with a village wench, he reproves him a tad too vehemently. 

His pride injured, Geoff flings himself headlong down Calamity Road - in the company of George Wickham's son.
