Knowing Mr. Darcy by Valerie Lennox Description:

Pride and Prejudice as if Jane and Elizabeth have switched places

When Miss Jane Bennet sprains her ankle the day of the Meryton assembly, she cannot dance with Mr. Charles Bingley, and so he dances with her sister Elizabeth instead.
Now, Elizabeth is the object of Mr. Bingley’s affection. It is she who is invited to dine with the Bingley sisters, she who catches cold, and she who is obliged to stay at Netherfield whilst she recovers.
Jane is the one who comes to check on her ailing sister, the one who listens to Mr. Darcy’s pronunciations on accomplished ladies, and later, the one who hears Mr. Wickham’s tale of Mr. Darcy.
Elizabeth knows she should marry Mr. Bingley. It is the best thing for her family, and she can find nothing particularly to complain about when it comes to the man.
But it is Mr. Darcy who smolders on the periphery, Mr. Darcy to whom she cannot help but be drawn, even as she knows of the whispers of his bad behavior toward Mr. Wickham.
She cannot help but consider Mr. Darcy, but she does not know him. And knowing Mr. Darcy will unravel everything she is building with Mr. Bingley.

Dear reader, I had such immense fun throwing Jane into all of Elizabeth’s scenes and vice versa. This was truly a delightful book to write, and I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Yes, it gets steamy. Lizzy and Darcy, in a carriage, anticipating their vows… I couldn’t stop myself, I’m afraid. Do be aware, as always, that I consider positively nothing sacred when it comes to our dear couple, but I can promise you that it all ends in a sweet burst of everlasting happiness.
