Pride and Prejudice variation. Forced to flee France, in the 12th century, to preserve their community, the werewolves moved to less populated England. Fitzwilliam Darcy lived at Pemberley in the far northern parts of England. He inherited his leadership of the Pemberley pack from his late father. His human mother had passed long before her mate. In an effort to dilute the bloodlines to better control the 'change' the males sought human wives. Darcy's love of Elizabeth Bennet was complete and for life. Bound by the law of the pack to withhold his true identity until his wife was with child, Darcy married Elizabeth Bennet at the same time as his best friend Charles Bingley married her sister, Jane. Now in the far reaches of Pemberley, will Lizzy learn her husband's secret? Will she escape this unnatural community or, will their love prevail against overwhelming odds? What will her life be as the Alpha Female of the werewolves of Pemberley?

A sensuous pleasure for the heart & soul,
This review is from: Moonlighting (Paperback)
Ms. Wegner has written a bold feast of forbidden desires that will challenge one's own established convictions and dares you to embrace the unforgivable. The intriguing & thought-provoking plot, the fascinating imagery and the tantalizing & breathlessly romantic character interactions center around Fitzwilliam Darcy courting & winning the hand of Elizabeth Bennet-but there is much mystery that surrounds our proud & very masculine hero. One is torn between yielding to the sheer ecstasy of the moment to questioning the justice & moral implications of Darcy's goals & desires. Passionately written and wildly introspective, an absolute must-have for any P&P fan! I loved it!

A Welcomed Relief,

This review is from: Moonlighting (Paperback)
With all the vampire stories being written, this book was a welcomed relief. Don't get me wrong, I like the vampire stories, and bought one recently, but I loved this story where Darcy is a werewolf. The bloodlines have been diluted enough by taking human wives that Darcy's pack is now quite civilized. They do change, especially when the moon is full, but only into wolves who kill small animals to eat, rather than into beasts who kill humans.
I adored this Darcy; he is loving, kind, compassionate, gentle and passionate. He, in turn, loves Elizabeth Bennet as only our fantasy Darcy can, but because of pack rules, he marries her without revealing what he is. He then takes her to Pemberley, which is located in the far north, just at the Scottish border, instead of Derbyshire. Once there she feels isolated and unhappy. She is allowed to go into the village, but because she is the alpha female, she can't become too close to the others. Elizabeth does love and desire her husband, but she is puzzled and confused by him, and what is happening around her . She senses he is keeping too many secrets from her. Too many mysterious events are occuring, and no one will tell her anything. When she becomes pregnant, she finally discovers what her husband is, and she is shocked and angry. What she does then is predictable. This is a love story, but it also brings up a moral issue. Males in the pack either marry a human female under false pretense, or they simply steal their human mates. Female wolves are different and the rules that bind men do not always pertain to the women. I recommend this book for more than one reason: (1) it is different from anything I've read or seen on the market, (2) it grips your imagination, and you'll have a hard time putting it down until you've finished, (3) it is a beautiful love story, and last but not least, it is well written.

Good story, poor execution.,
By

This review is from: Moonlighting (Paperback)
I thought the premise of this book was a great idea, especially as it ties in with the popularity of vampire and werewolf stories today. Even the storyline was well thought out and for the most part, well written.
However, I did find myself getting more annoyed than usual with the many typos and errors in grammar. I admire and appreciate the self-publishing practices of the authors who participate because I think it allows people with great stories to tell to do so without the drawn out business of finding a publishing house and whatnot - but it would be even better if the authors spent a bit more time reviewing their manuscripts before putting them on the market. All in all, I would suggest this book to people who enjoy the variations of the beloved Darcy and Elizabeth story because as I said, it is in essence and good story. Just beware of the typos and lingering articles.
