I've enjoyed many of Krista D. Ball's works. She now has a new book coming out I think many of you would enjoy as well. It's a current adaptation, inspired by a classic many have loved (and enjoy over and over again with the remixes). That would be Jane Austen's classic, Pride and Prejudice.
First (Wrong) Impressions
By: Krista D. Ball
Due Out: June 7, 2013
Description:
Lizzy Bennet’s fundraising mission is to keep her homeless centre’s clients well-fed through a cold prairie winter. She meets the snobby and pompous William Darcy of Fitz & William Enterprises. While she'd never dare ask him for help, she can't stop bumping into him -- sometimes, quite literally.
But when Lizzy's campaign is cut short by the disappearance of her sixteen year old sister, William and his younger sister step in to help the woman they want to make part of their family.
Inspired by Jane Austen's classic, Pride and Prejudice, First (Wrong) Impressions is Lizzy's quest for happiness, security, and love in the 21st century.
Now, I know many of you have loved the new blends with Jane Austen's tales. I do hope you give this one a try as well. Sounds like a good one! And I know Krista is talented from the stories I've already read of hers.
Now see THIS is something I might actually check out. Still, I need to read the original...I know, I know, bad reader. ^-^ Definitely sounds like this redo with a twist has potential though.
