Proud. Intimidating. Impossible. Three small words. One overheard conversation. The most unlikely tutor in England.

Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy has insulted Miss Elizabeth Bennet at the Meryton assembly, alienated half the county, and spent every social occasion since standing rigidly by a fireplace, pretending not to notice her. When he overhears the local matrons declaring him impossible and Mrs Bennet, of all people, defending him, he comes to the only possible conclusion: he needs tutelage.

Miss Elizabeth Bennet had planned to continue her life with minimal exposure to the disagreeable master of Pemberley. Instead, she finds herself excluded from her mother’s secret lessons, watching in bewilderment as Mr Darcy attempts to master the art of small talk, polite disagreement, and genuine amiability.

But disastrous compliments about durable curtains, surprising intellectual debates, and one pie-thieving spaniel begin to melt the frost between them. As the festive Netherfield ball approaches and sparks fly, Mr Darcy and Miss Elizabeth are forced to confront the one thing more daunting than society's expectations: enjoying each other's company.

The Amiable Mr Darcy is a light-hearted Pride and Prejudice variation and Regency romantic comedy for readers who enjoy clean Regency romance, enemies-to-lovers tropes, humorous, witty Austen retellings, slow-burn courtship, meddling matchmaking mothers, and Christmas-set JAFF with a generous helping of laughter. In this book you will find no angst, no drama, no villains, and no tears but the ones of joy.
