Author Description

An old version of this book has previously been published as Lord Harpenden’s Daughter. The title has been changed because it was difficult to discern that it was a Pride and Prejudice variation. Although the overall plot remains the same, the storytelling and language have been rewritten and edited. Thou, to whose eyes I bend… Rumours about the imminent arrival of the beautiful daughters of the reclusive Earl of Longbourn have reached the superior society of London. It is the talk of the town; not even Mr Darcy can avoid hearing about it, especially with his best friend’s loquacious sister in tow. The daughters, dressed in their mourning garb, do not meet the expectations of the fastidious Mr Darcy, who soon finds himself in the unenviable position of trying to rectify a poor first impression. But then a dramatic event forces them to unite against a common enemy—a master of deception—to save their sisters. Lord Longbourn’s Daughter is a chaste Pride and Prejudice variation with a forced marriage scenario with no compromise, an early understanding between our dear couple, and the Bennets of elevated rank. This work of fiction is created entirely from the author’s imagination. At no point in this body of work has Artificial Intelligence (AI) been employed to write it.
