Publisher's Summary
Childhood friends torn apart by war....
Fourteen-year-old Elizabeth Bennet thought Fitzwilliam Darcy, her friend Georgiana's brother, was the most wonderful, handsomest man in the entire world. When he went to India to fight Britain’s enemies, she made him promise to write her along with Georgie regularly. There wasn't anything improper, since Georgiana and she had sworn to be sisters. When Elizabeth and Georgiana learned that Fitzwilliam was captured, they kept writing letters to him, so that when he was released, he would know that he had not been forgotten by those who loved him.
During the years of his imprisonment, Darcy never forgot his promise to write to little Lizzy Bennet, though he was sure she had long since forgotten about him. Before setting sail to England with the survivors of his regiment, he received the stack of letters written by Lizzy and Georgiana. Lizzy's letters were chatty, friendly, and confiding. He read and reread her words during the long voyage to England, and during those months, he fell in love with the kind, wonderful woman she had grown into.
But in England, Elizabeth's family had decided to force her to marry a wealthy man who terrified her....

Mostly great, some shifting of mindset required.
I enjoyed this on the whole but for many chapters Elizabeth was whiney and weak. She was frustrating in that her usual sharp wit wasn’t anywhere to be seen. Thankfully she did gain a backbone and she was back to good old Lizzie.
The relationship with Jane took a different take. I have read another variation with a similar vein but I can’t say it’s very believable. I don’t mind the different takes on major characters but with Jane’s personality usually portrayed as being so kindhearted it didn’t ring true.
I did enjoy it though just some differences to digest.
