The Perfect Bride for Mr. Darcy by Mary Lydon Simonsen - I couldn't resist going back to more Jane Austen Fan Fiction for a bit, and this one was a very good choice. Simonsen retells a story very similar to Austen's original Pride and Prejudice, but gives Georgiana Darcy and Anne de Bourgh much more ink. These and a few other characters have their personalities developed more fully, and have a hand in bringing Darcy and Elizabeth together. Anne de Bourgh has a very warm and affectionate friendship with her cousin, Fitzwilliam Darcy, and suspects his growing attachment to Elizabeth while he is at Rosings. After he leaves, Anne takes it upon herself to further her own friendship with Elizabeth and find out just what has happened between the two prospective lovers. She puts a plan into place to bring to two together again in hopes that they can mend their differences and overcome their misunderstandings (and pride, and prejudice, of course!). Anne has help from Georgiana, who has suspected her older brother is in love ever since he first returned from Netherfield, but it is some time until she can find out just who is the object of his interest and what has happened to part them after the disastrous proposal at Rosings. The two ladies join forces in a delightful matchmaking effort that I felt stayed true to Austen's original characters and settings. This is a piece of JAFF that I really enjoyed, and didn't descend into anything cheap and tawdry for the most part.
