ISBN: 9781250141392

4/5

Pride and Prejudice and Mistletoe, from New York Times bestselling author, Melissa de la Cruz, is a sweet, sexy and hilarious gender-swapping, genre-satisfying re-telling, set in contemporary America and featuring one snooty Miss Darcy.

First published: 2050
Publishers: Taylor & Francis Group
Subjects: Fiction·Romance·Contemporary
Language: English

In this gender-swapped retelling of Jane Austen's classic romance, Darcy Fitzwilliam is a 29-year-old hedge fund manager. Luke Bennet is her neighbor and fierce childhood rival.

I received this book as a giveaway ARC, and as a preface to this review, Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite classics. This retelling, while a fast read, is not my favorite.

An interesting twist on the timeless tale, Pride and Prejudice and Mistletoe is told from Darcy's point of view. And this time, Darcy Fitzwilliam is a well to do female unsure of what she wants, while Luke Bennet is the not so rich, carpenter boy from the same town of Pemberley, Ohio.
