My dearest Mr. Darcy, allow me to make a sassy prediction: one day, you will read my name on this book cover, and by the time you realize it, you will be reading this letter. Awareness will strike you like lightning; you will drop your act and feel in your bones that you are the one I wrote it to. Pride, then, will take your ego to the highest heights as you remember our time together, but the prejudice resulting from the same period will be the one causing your fingers to tremble and your breath to falter; you will be taking the book home. What's more, I venture to say that, somehow, no matter where I might be, I will know it too. It's an inexplicable feeling, weird but wagerable. In the meantime, I leave you with a more daring question than the single "why?" messing with your head as soon as you started reading me: love rules the world, but as innocent and ardently as it may be, can it conquer it all? Yours truly, the author

When Elizabeth Bennet first met Mr. Darcy, she found him proud, distant, and rude—despite the other ladies' admiration of his estate in Derbyshire and ten thousand pounds a year. But what was Mr. Darcy thinking? Jane Austen's classic Pride and Prejudice has long stood among the most beloved novels of all time. The story of Elizabeth Bennet's blossoming romance with "haughty, reserved, and fastidious" Fitzwilliam Darcy has enchanted readers for nearly two centuries. Yet, Mr. Darcy has always remained an intriguing enigma—his thoughts, feelings, and motivations hidden behind a cold, impenetrable exterior . . . until now. With the utmost respect for Austen's original masterwork, author Janet Aylmer loving retells Pride and Prejudice from a bold new perspective: seeing events as they transpire through the eyes of Darcy himself. One of world's great love stories takes on breathtaking new life, and one of fiction's greatest romantic heroes becomes even more sympathetic, compelling, attractive, and accessible, all through the imagination and artistry of a truly gifted storyteller.
