From the Inside Flap
As our story recommences all should be bliss in the Darcy
household. At long last, Lizzy has birthed an heir and Darcy is again by
her side. Motherhood however has not only rendered busy and distracted,
child birth itself has left her temporarily "indisposed". Although Darcys
heart aches for what his Lizzy has endured, it is not the throbbing of his
heart that is most troubling to his serenity - it is the palpable pain in
his loins.....

Format:Paperback
I really loved reading "Mr Darcy Takes A Wife" and had the sequel already on my wish list before I finished reading it. However, "Nights and Days.." was sadly lacking the magic the first book had. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that I had finished the first book, and curiosity got the better of me, I would not have finished the second.
The book was aimless, lacking any real punch or storyline, no real passion (definitely unlike the first) and kept referring to the first book as if Linda Berdoll felt the need to remind us what it was all about.
Linda Berdoll should have gone out on a high..the first was brilliant but sadly this book is rubbish! Ah well..!

Format:Paperback
This book has been a great dissapointment. After being glued to the pages of Mr Darcy Takes a Wife I waited with great anticipation for the continuation of Darcy and Elizabeths life together at Pemberley. This book lacks new characters, and as I read it I felt as if I were reading a re-written version of Mr Darcy Takes a Wife with large amounts of repetition. It was a struggle to complete.

Having been an avid fan of "mr darcy takes a wife" i waited with baited breath for the sequel. I was disappointed.....very disappointed, while in essence a good read it does not have the sheer unputdownable quality of the first book, lizzy and darcy are stilted and somewhat lacking in intensity and passion, the very essence that drives along Miss Austens superb original and Ms Berdolls sequel and turned into a sort of wet and spluttery plop, rather than a bang!
all in all, while the plot develops well in places and brings in some twists and turns nothing sits right and the reader is left with a feeling that something is missing..something big is missing.
The americanisms in language seemed more grating and the additional characters became more caricatures than the subtly drawn ironic portrayals we have become used to.
I do not wish to ruin the plot climax for those of you who have not read it but I found it implausable.
A good book, but not a patch on the original, or the first sequel for that matter.

Austen fans beware!
This was a truly awful book. The characters were shallow and I could not imagine Austen recognising anything about them but their names. Read more

Darcy and Elizabeth . Nights and days at Pemberley
I was disappointed with this book. It just felt like a dumbing down of the original Pride and Prejudice and I wouldnt recommend it to anyone who is a genuine fan of Jane Austen.
