What They're Saying
Critics Review
Praise for Definitely Not Mr. Darcy
“Entertainment in its purest form, a skirt-flying tumble of a story, and an excellent, lighthearted way to while away a quiet afternoon.”—New York Journal of Books
“A lively and engaging tale of a modern woman faced with the amusingly inelegant reality of Regency life.”—Abigail Reynolds, author of Mr. Darcy’s Noble Connections
“Composed of equal measures of romance, captivating characters, and clever writing, Definitely Not Mr. Darcy is a fun read.”—Chicago Tribune
“Doornebos gives the historical romance novel a hilarious update in this delightful debut…The amusing secondary characters, sidesplitting faux pas, and fiery romance will make Doornebos an instant hit with readers.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“[A] fun, funny, and perfectly satisfying dip into the world so many of us would like to time travel back to—but with a thoroughly modern twist.”—Arielle Eckstut, coauthor of Pride and Promiscuity
“Chloe deals with Regency underwear, spiteful costars, and chamber pots with determination and sass … It’s delightful to read an Austen-inspired novel that is funny!”—Margaret C. Sullivan, author of The Jane Austen Handbook
