Prejudice and Pride Eve Delson

"[E]normous fun, and cleverly conceived and executed... Neat and clever reworking of Pride & Prejudice for a modern age." - Jane Austen's Regency WorldDelson did a fantastic job of recreating Austen's story in a modern setting..." - OnlineBookClub.org"A quick engaging read that kept me turning pages." - Amazon readerIn a modern reimagining of a genderbent Pride and Prejudice, Eli Bennet catches the eye of Darci Fitzwilliam, America's "Ice Princess," while attending Longbourn University. Darci, a member of a Kennedy-esque political dynasty, fights her feelings for this son of the university librarian, knowing that Eli is not from her world of sophistication and money. While Eli scorns the uptight, image-conscious Darci, he is thrown into her company as a result of the burgeoning romance between his brother, James, a teaching assistant at the college, and Darci's best friend, a wealthy Indian-American, Charlize Bingley. Studying for his Master's while dodging the attention of the ignorant, egotistical Willa Collins, and trying to keep his wild younger brother, Lyndon, in check, is a full-time job. Perhaps that's why Eli doesn't realize that Darci is falling for him. Of course, it's hard to feel flattered when she makes clear that she thinks his father is a fortune-hunter and the rest of his family is white trash. When these lovers clash, they learn to look below the surface and find that the most important lessons are those of the heart.
