Mr. Darcy’s Enchantment was released earlier this week. I’m just starting to hear from readers about it, and the reviews are even better than I hoped. Here’s the blurb, in case you’ve missed it:

In a Regency England where magic and faeries are real…

Fitzwilliam Darcy is a powerful magician who controls fire, water, and wind. What he cannot control is his growing feelings for Miss Elizabeth Bennet. But Darcy is also sworn to uphold the laws which forbid women to use magic, and Elizabeth knows it.

Elizabeth’s sentiments towards Darcy are quite different. She detests his arrogance, and she fears he will expose her use of forbidden magic. He is the last man in the world she would choose to help her on a difficult and dangerous task.

But when a magical war looms between the land of Faerie and their world, a Lord of Faerie demands that Darcy and Elizabeth serve together as his emissaries to make peace with the other mortals. That mission throws them into the middle of a chaotic power struggle between magicians whose power dwarfs their own, and everything Elizabeth has ever believed about her family, her friends, and her enemies will be called into question.

And here’s what some readers are saying:

Hands down, just hands freaking down, this is the best! I loved it. The world building is so complete and the characters all fit perfectly in. It is so different but also so Elizabeth and Darcy. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️” – Kathy Langenstein Berlin

 

I wasn’t sure I would like it and I couldn’t put it down. I had to finally about three quarters into it. Had to sleep a little. I finished it and wow. I liked the way Darcy and Lizzy were so themselves even in a different type of story.

 

Mr. Darcy’s Enchantment is wonderful. Couldn’t put it down last night, got a kindle to the face for my trouble!

Well, you can see why I’m a pretty happy author! Adding magic to Darcy and Elizabeth’s story was a real challenge for me, so it’s thrilling to hear feedback like this.

Of course, a lot of my regular readers who aren’t into fantasy still have some doubts about reading Mr. Darcy’s Enchantment. I’ve tried to make it easy to check it out by posting the first part of the book and making it available through Kindle Unlimited, so everybody can try it for free. So far the doubtful readers have been telling me they were really surprised how much they liked it. If you’re one of the doubters, I hope you’ll try reading a few chapters. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised!
