Inventing Mr. Darcy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781448321360)

Award-winning author Susanna Craig is bringing the charm and sass of her historical romances into the 21st century with her first contemporary romance, Inventing Mr. Darcy, an enemies-to-lovers, alternate timeline romance with a Jane Austen twist!

A truth universally acknowledged: enemies attract!

Grad student Elle Bradshaw is on the cusp of completing her literature PhD. And while life beyond college is terrifying, spending her evening fixing a database malfunction with gorgeous yet grumpy tech geek Fisher Davis is worse. He infuriates her while making her heart race--it's a distraction she doesn't need!

When a fluke geomagnetic storm leaves them trapped together during a blackout, the fiery kiss that follows is unexpected--and explosive. But catastrophically, the storm also wiped Jane Austen from existence! Now, Elle's the only person to remember Pride and Prejudice and, it seems, romance itself.

As Elle navigates a world so familiar, yet not her own, she realizes she might just need to put her pride to one side and ask Fisher for help. Could the guy who was once her enemy turn out to be her very own Mr. Darcy . . . ?
