Synopsis: Mr. Darcy has never been more devilish and the seemingly chaste Elizabeth never more turned on. The entire cast of characters from Austen’s classic is here in this rewrite that goes all the way.
Review: What happens when both Bingley’s want Mr. Darcy, if both Miss Lucas and Mr. Collins prefer those of their own sex, if Lydia Bennet was doing much more than just flirting with the militia, or if Mr. Bennett spent his time in the library studying things of a decidedly more carnal nature? All this and lots more is embarked upon in Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts. Like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Hidden Lusts is a rewrite but instead of zombies, we have lots (and lots) of fleshy wickedness.
Purists will definitely not like this book, of course, but to those who have always wanted a little naughtiness alongside their cravats and stays, you’ve come to the right place (especially if you like your erotica anything but vanilla). Read more
