    Many characters were involved in this novel, some old ones that we all know and then a few new ones. Once again, Georgianna got taken in by someone just like George Wickham and so did Elizabeth. But as usual, Mr. Darcy was there to the rescue. It shows how some people, even in real life, don't want to work for what they want, they only want to take from others.
    Mrs. Bennet was her usual self as was Aunt Catherine. I was surprised that Colonel Richard wasn't in the novel as much since he is so close to Darcy and that was a big change. I love Mr. Bennet always in all the novels as he is calm and collected.
    All in all, with the twists and the comings and goings of the characters, it was an enjoyable read on a very rainy day!
    Naturally, with all the excitement of everything, the novel does end with good news for the Darcys and the Bingleys!

    This book is in 2 parts that are really two separate stories, although they both chronicle events that happen during the early years of the marriage of Darcy and Elizabeth.

    The first section centers around the first dinner party being hosted at Pemberley since Elizabeth became its mistress. Uninvited members of the family - both Elizabeth's and Darcy's - show up and complicate matters, embarrassing and challenging them. It's a relief when Mr. and Mrs. Darcy both realize that, essentially, "you cannot be taken advantage of without your permission" is a much better creed to live by than "honor one's family above all" (despite how rude and obnoxious the family is), and the major troublemakers are finally booted out.

    The second part introduces Darcy's third cousin, Mr. Bingham, who is wooing Georgiana. He appears to be sincere and Elizabeth approves of him though he doesn't have any status or wealth, but Darcy is suspicious. It seems likely that this is Darcy's overprotectiveness of his little sister at work, or perhaps not. With the Earl of Matlock very ill and Darcy often away to help tend to his uncle's estate, Mr. Bingham is often at Pemberley painting a portrait of Georgiana and leading her to fall in love with him. Eventually, his desperation to win and marry her leads him to make some very unwise decisions.

    I recognize the effort taken here to write a sequel that doesn't leave behind those who have never read Pride and Prejudice. However, the fact is that the vast majority of those who read this are already very familiar with the story. Rehashing so much of the original, including full passages culled directly from Ms. Austen's novel, gets annoying. The first section in particular would flow much better without all the reminiscing slowing down the story.

    Ms. Dixon's books are always nicely written, as is this one. The second plot has more originality than the first, but both have some creative elements I haven't found in other JAFF. As I mentioned above, there's very little overlap of plot between the two sections except for characters and time frame. (Well, the second starts 9 months after the first ends but still within the newlywed phase of marriage.) I do believe they should have been presented as separate short stories rather than a single novel.

    Another great story by Pam Dixon. The Darcys are having their first dinner party. Bad enough for Elizabeth, because it was the first time that they entertained. Unexpected guests continued to arrive without warning. Caroline Bingley invited herself as well as the Bennets, Lady Catherine, Anne de Bourgh, and the last to arrive is Lydia Wickham. Caroline was bad enough with her hateful comments, but Lady Catherine's disapproval of everything was the breaking point for Darcy. Add to the mixture Mrs. Bennet and Lydia, and a disaster is not waiting to happen. Throw another person that is claiming he's a third cousin and watch the fireworks. Several guests are escorted out of Pemberley by force, and others took the hint it was time to head back home. The Bingleys buy an estate near Pemberley. Being to kind hearted and never facing conflict, they are constantly with unwelcome guests: Caroline and the Wickhams. Bingley knows that no of the freeloaders are never to be Darcy's guests. Mrs Bennet with her weak mind, cannot understand why Darcy will not help the Wickhams. As bad as Wickham is, he lost his distinguished role at the top of the ladder only to be replaced by the third cousin. The cousin is really a desperate, hateful man which Darcy finds almost too late. The dinner party started it all. A must read to learn just how confusing life can get with some odd family members thrown into the mix.

    Loved this book!

    I have read many P&P variations from this author and I have to say that this is my least favorite. Although it had all the makings of a good story, I felt rushed and unfinished. Every couple of chapters was a new subplot but each subplot finished abruptly and left me things "that's it?". Not quite what I have come to expect from this author.
    I'll continue to read more from this author as other P&P stories have be n quite excellent.

    I managed to read a third of this story before I realised I was not enjoying it so stopped. How can I recommend a book that creates this feeling. Lydia's interactions with Georgiana, so persistently emphasised, spoiled the whole thing. Not my cup of tea!
