Loosely based on the beloved Pride and Prejudice, Debra White Smith’s First Impressions weaves a spell–binding, modern–day tale on the challenges and rewards of love.
Eddi Boswick has just settled in Texas to establish her law practice. Joining a local theater group, she is thrilled when she is given the role of Elizabeth in Pride and Prejudice.
William “Dave” Davidson III amassed a fortune in the computer industry but leads a quiet life on his ranch. On a dare he tries out for the play and lands the role of Darcy.
Sparks fly each time the lawyer meets the rancher. When Eddi uncovers Dave’s secret will her heart soften? Will Dave’s fear of “being tamed” keep him from discovering love?
Reviews:
Judy (USA: AZ) (2018/05/07): First Impressions by Debra White Smith The Jane Austen Series Eddi Boswick is a lawyer in the small town of London, Texas. Most of the people are friendly and easy to get along with. And then there is Dave Davidson. A man who only cares for himself and supposedly lives off of his aunt's generosity.
Dave Davidson started over three years ago in London, along with his aunt. He wants who he used to be left in the past. Of course, some things never stay put. Like all the women who want him for his money. He does his best to stay away from them or in the case of Eddi...come off as a jerk so he's not tempted to think she's different.
This is one of many books in this series where the author takes a Jane Austen book and brings it to modern day. Just as in the play they are going to act out...Dave is a modern day Darcy and Eddi an Elizabeth. And just as in the real story, misunderstandings abound and tear people apart. A page-turning story from beginning to end. **Received from Bethany House for an honest review http://justjudysjumbles.blogspot.com/2011/10/bethany-house-publishers.html
