May I have this dance?
In my review I stated that Simonsen’s portrayal of Mr. Darcy
is enough to make any girl forget her upbringing and manners. With the war
taking place, Darcy seems to be determined to make the most of his time with
Elizabeth. Here is just one example of his persistence.
It is probably a good thing Lizzy is driving the lorry. This might help her to maintain her resolve and not get involved with a man during the war. But can Darcy be ignored, especially when he is such a smooth talker, and irresistibly good looking?

Darcy sounds swoony ... and I love the faces you make while reading, hehe ;o)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rebecca! I always aim to entertain! ;)
DeleteJakki, That was wonderful. It made me want to buy the book. Oh, never mind, I already have a copy. I love your inflection. Just perfect. And the little bubble before the book cover appears, that's darn clever! Thanks, my friend.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Maybe you could get a signed copy someday! ;) I was hoping viewers would like it & not notice my stumbles & my inflection was good. Sometimes, that can be the most challenging part. Glad you liked it! :)
DeleteLoved your vlog, Jakki. You do a fantastic job! Oh my, Mr. Darcy does sound swoonworthy indeed! I believe I must read this book! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity, Mary!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Janet! You're a doll! :) Best of luck with the giveaway! Enjoy the book!
DeleteSounds very interesting. A great vlog again, Jakki! Darcy sounds a lot ore straight-forward here, then in the original. Will need to read it, to see how it´s contiuning.
ReplyDeleteAnd that´s a lovely colour you´re wearing!
Hi Katrin! I do like the shirt. :) He is a bit more forward here, but I guess it must be because of the war and the circumstances they were under. Hope you get a chance to read it! :)
DeleteOkay, okay, now I HAVE to get that book! Very enticing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Maryanne! Hope you enjoy the book! :)
DeleteI love your dramatic style of reading. But I can't get over the fact that its Darcy who has to persuade Elizabeth to dance. Looking forward to finding out what he has to tell her.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Ooh, you do have a good point there, Sophia Rose! Their roles usually are reversed when it comes to dancing, huh?
DeleteHello Janeites. Thanks for stopping by. Isn't Jakki wonderful? I'm very excited about this book. I've been writing it for about two years. So glad I finally got it into print.
ReplyDeleteLoved the vlog, Jakki! I think I'm going to enjoy this Darcy!!=))
ReplyDeletethank you for the opportunity to win a copy of Mr Darcy Goes to War!!!!

oooOOOOooohhh, I wonder what he wants to say to her? I know what I'd want him to say to me! ;) lol Love his persistence - very charming.
ReplyDeleteI always love when they dance together but especially in non-regency stories. The regency line-dancing has appeal for hand-holding and flirty gazes but I love when they get to REALLY dance together to other types of music.
You always do a great job with these vlogs, Jakki. I don't think I'd be brave enough to try it.
LOL! I am sure we all want him to say the same thing to us too! ;)
DeleteI love it when they dance too, Monica, especially when the reader can feel the connection between them and the tension (be it sexual or dislike)!
Oh Jakki! I have to know what happens! Love your vlog!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway!!
