I could not get into this novel at all. There are several things wrong with it from the onset:

1. The Darcy sisters are watered down versions of the Bennet sisters. Nothing new or original about any of them.

2. Aston's story lines for original P&P characters are just terrible.

3. She retains nothing of Jane Austen's delicacy and spirit in her writing.

4. It was just plain boring to read.

I purchased it new because I was excited at the prospect to see what becomes of Elizabeth and Darcy, but I should have known better. Sequels written by other authors rarely turn out well.

1 star because Aston used correct grammar and spelling.
