Publisher's Summary:
Mr Darcy and Elizabeth now have two children, Miranda and Edward. Miranda is a model daughter, well attuned to life at splendid Pemberley and, were it not for her sex, would make a perfect heir.
Edward, alas, would not, and as he and his grandmother, Mrs Bennet, fall into the clutches of those who are not what they seem, awful questions arise about the succession at Pemberley - must the entail be broken and Edward disinherited, ending the Darcy line on the estate?
Members Reviews:
an unequal marriage pride and prejudice continues book
I read everything Pride and Prejudice. I usually enjoy the continuation books. This one was ok...I felt like the author rushed through...she had a good story idea, but in the end I was left scratching my head at some decisions that were made by the characters that I disagree with. It is worth reading, but like I said the end left me scratching my head a bit.
Miss Bingley must have written this book!
What a Horrible, HORRIBLE book! The sitcom-esq ending where everything is wrapped up in the last 3 pages as all a big misunderstanding do nothing to save this book.
After 19 years of marriage Elizabeth and Darcy are "sooo" much in love, that is until they receive some bad news, and Darcy concludes that he made a mistake in perusing Elizabeth after he learned of her family's insanity all those years ago. AND TELLS HER SO! Elizabeth, in turn, realizes that Darcy is a "monster," and wishes for equality of the sexes so that she may get a divorce. Her realization of her superior character is what inspires the title of "an unequal marriage." This also leads her to become bitter about Jane's happiness.
Of the 180 so pages of this book over 170 are dedicated to the hatred and resentment of the Darcys. This book is written from bitterness and contempt of love. It has nothing to do with the original sentiments of Austin, and is uninteresting and depressing in its own right. The shortness of the book make it undeveloped and do nothing to justify the stream ill events and bad feelings.
The book only serves as a laundry list of bad happenings and despair only to have the curtain whipped aside at the very end to say "silly Elizabeth, none of that's true - now lets go to Italy and be Rich!" All of the fair-weather love and weak loyalties are supposed to be forgotten in the end pronouncement of an undying and strong love. This sentiment is our reward for wading through the dreadfulness of the book.
Silly reader! Don't waste your time, money or good feelings on this wretched excuse for a story of love.
