It's 1803 and I am soon to marry the love of my life—not that I'd let anyone see how much I cared. I have been spending a lot of time at my best friend's house, Netherfield, to be near my beloved Elizabeth, but I'm ready to return to Pemberley and regain my privacy. And now Bingley has come to me for advice, and I'm going to be forced to tell him something about the marriage bed. I suppose I must help him.

Bingley was right. Best he could recall, there was no gossip when he was back in the changing room the next day and no knowing winks from his captain. Surely if there was some assault on the Darcy honour, he would remember it distinctly. At the moment, all he remembered was a pounding headache.

Great teaser. I'll be interested to hear how you like this book once you've finished it.
ReplyDeleteI am sure I started this one, it sounds familiar. Maybe in the library or book store and put it back as I can't find it on my stacks. Look forward to your thought.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun take on Pride and Prejudice. Should be fun looking at the story from the male perspective.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a headache is all we need to effectively take away all concentration!

I wonder what Bingley is thinking about. This looks like a fun P&P book.

I'll be anxious to hear what you think about this book!

Will the Jane Austen sequels never end! And honestly, I really want to read this one! I'd love to know how much money has been made on Pride & Prejudice follow-ups alone...
ReplyDeleteI'm reading P&P to my 12 year old daughter right now, this looks like a fun continuing read for me, can't tell how appropriate it would be for her though.
ReplyDeleteOh what a cool post idea... and great teaser because now I want to read it!! Haha, awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I'd want to read a P&P sequel. It's crazy how much P&P stuff is out there!
ReplyDelete"I'm going to be forced to tell him something about the marriage bed" ... well, wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall for that conversation (I'm sure it was all inferences and hemming and hawing!)
ReplyDeleteI liked this book. Easy light reading. funny too.
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser
I've never been a big Jane Austen fan, but it's amazing how many people get really caught up in her novels. Good teaser!
ReplyDeleteI've got a football teaser today! And a giveaway!
I haven't heard of this book, but it sounds fun!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Teaser Tuesday.
I have this in my TBR pile to read for the Everything Austen Challenge. I think it sounds kinda fun. I'm interested to hear your take on it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge P&P fan, but I do like the story and characters. This might be an interesting follow up.
ReplyDeleteGood teaser! I have this in my TBR!
ReplyDeleteIt looks as though Austen is hugely popular again these days. She and the Tudors are making England quite fashionable in the literary world :-)
ReplyDeleteInteresting teaser! Looking forward to your review of this one.
