Download As PDF : The Lady Jewels A Pride and Prejudice Variation The Sweet Regency Romance Series Book 14 edition by Perpetua Langley Literature Fiction eBooksOn a mid-morning ride to Pumpkin Hill, Elizabeth and Jane discover a lady injured in an abandoned carriage. Her coachman, grooms and horses are gone, along with the lady’s jewels. The lady in question happens to be Lady Castlereagh, arbiter of Almacks, wife of the much-maligned foreign secretary and owner of such things as a kangaroo and a bad-tempered tiger.
The lady’s injuries dictate that she must not travel for at least a month and she will stay at Longbourn for the foreseeable future. Determined to discover what has happened to her, Lady Castlereagh summons her dear friends Darcy and Bingley, and Bow Street man Horatio Quinn to Hertfordshire.
Longbourn’s drawing room is given over to Mr. Quinn as he directs all involved in their efforts to solve the mystery. Who stole the jewels? What has happened to the coachman and grooms? Was it the coachman who executed the scheme? Could it have been highwaymen? Perhaps it was the lady’s errant maid and the butler she ran off with? Or maybe the mysterious Mr. Cratchet?
As the party follows clues, Elizabeth and Darcy circle each other warily. She thinks he’s handsome and has a certain wit when he is not so serious. He thinks she’s uncommonly pretty and happily devoid of the coldness of a London lady. But he is too reserved and judgmental for her and she is too carefree and flouting convention for him. They are not at all suited. And yet…
Hertfordshire is a hive of activity as proposals are made, proposals are rejected, theories are floated, red herrings are chased, a clergyman bumbles, a stern lady miscalculates, a devious miss is the architect of her own undoing and one Bennet daughter pays the piper.

"This book will not go down in the annals of great literature, but it is great fun to read. The story must be approached with a willingness to firmly put your tongue in your cheek. It is intentionally silly at times, with plenty of eccentric behavior on the part of several characters. The new characters of Lady Castleragh and Mr. Quinn are strange but completely likeable. There are other new characters introduced who are also people you can care about.
As the book description states, Jane and Elizabeth become involved in an investigation into the assault and robbery of Lady Castleragh, which occurs close to Longbourn. Darcy and Bingley are also involved, which provides the opportunity for the two couples to meet. There are many quirky people and animals encountered along the way of the investigation, and of course Darcy is his usual haughty and disdainful self for most of the story. There are many fine instances of characters getting their comeuppance, notably Caroline and Lady Catherine. Darcy must face his own ridiculousness and humble himself to get what he wants. This is all done with wonderful carefree humor.
The book is well written, clever and imaginative. I recommend it highly."

- This book will not go down in the annals of great literature, but it is great fun to read. The story must be approached with a willingness to firmly put your tongue in your cheek. It is intentionally silly at times, with plenty of eccentric behavior on the part of several characters. The new characters of Lady Castleragh and Mr. Quinn are strange but completely likeable. There are other new characters introduced who are also people you can care about.
As the book description states, Jane and Elizabeth become involved in an investigation into the assault and robbery of Lady Castleragh, which occurs close to Longbourn.

There are many quirky people and animals encountered along the way of the investigation, and of course Darcy is his usual haughty and disdainful self for most of the story. There are many fine instances of characters getting their comeuppance, notably Caroline and Lady Catherine. Darcy must face his own ridiculousness and humble himself to get what he wants. This is all done with wonderful carefree humor.
The book is well written, clever and imaginative. I recommend it highly. - I first read this book in Unlimited but liked it so much, I bought a copy for my library.
Interesting and novel plot. Love it that one of the Almack ladies was Darcy's neighbor. And I love Ms. Langley's humor that pops up throughout the book as well.
A very enjoyable read, and I highly recommend it. - The story is not only a nice P&P variation, it is also a comedic romp much in the genre of The Trouble of being Earnest. The characters speak and think not in normal statements but exaggerated words and sentences that are very sincere in a humorous way.
Darcy is not quite as super intelligent as normally portrayed. He is still proud, a man of honor, a man who can be trusted and a man who is not VERY stubborn, just the right amount of stubborn.
Lizzy is not super Lizzy. She is just clever Lizzy. Her temper is not hair trigger and volcanic. She has the proper temper of a country heroine.
There many eccentric characters. Some are the P&P characters and some are new characters.
I really enjoyed the story. I recommend it highly and will put in my read again stack of books. - “The Lady’s Jewels†is an engrossing mystery from an author who always tells an amusing story.
Jane and Elizabeth (unlike canon P&P, she is an experienced equestrian) discover an abandoned carriage during a morning ride. No carriage horses, no carriage driver, no outriders, no footmen. But wait, the carriage is not completely abandoned! An older lady is present, accompanied by two Mastiffs. Shockingly, the lady is the well-known Lady Castlereagh, one of the patronesses of Almacks. Even more shocking Lady Castlereagh’s jewel box is missing along with the horses, driver and footmen.
Jane rides for help while Elizabeth renders first aid. The Lady is transported to Longbourn and the local Doctor is summoned. Lady Castlereagh’s injuries prevent her ability to travel temporarily, so she must remain with the Bennet family. She writes to Darcy and Bingley (who are unknown to the Bennets) requesting their presence along with a former Bow Street runner, Mr. Quinn. All the parties will live at Longbourn while the gentlemen find the Lady’s Jewels.
I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number of carats in a diamond. ~ Mae West
Our story is filled with unique characters from Lady Castlereagh to her Mastiffs to a curmudgeonly doctor to a verbose stableboy. Darcy and Bingley defer to Quinn as the prime sleuth but Elizabeth is often the one with a breakthrough idea.
The reader has more clues to the mystery than the characters and the villain is easily suspected. The story is clean, with more than the usual two HEAs; well-written, well-edited and proofread. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys JAFF.
No gold-digging for me; I take diamonds! We may be off the gold standard someday. ~ Mae West - I have enjoyed many of Ms Langley’s other works, and regret I couldn’t like this one, too. The most glaring problem is that there’s nothing desirable about Darcy. He’s not evil; he’s just uninspiring. It’s hard to pin a love story on dull; in this instance, Elizabeth and Darcy feel like they’re in parallel lines in the same plot.
Said plot was a bit strained, logistically. How three people manage to survive for weeks in unamiable circumstances makes no sense. Solving a mystery by getting started on it...after breakfast tomorrow...does nothing to add a sense of urgency to the plot.
Second, the story itself went on far too long. Either it should have been cut by a third, or the Lydia subplot should have been fully developed. Lady Catherine and Caroline had their own, totally unneeded subplot.
Basically, there was not enough story, yet too much at the same time.
I did like the waistcoats, though. - This story was great fun to read. The characters felt very alive and distinctive, and the plot contained a good mystery. All the usual bad folks are there, but fortunately only in small doses, just to move the story along. The eccentric Lady Castlereagh was masterfully done and the mastiffs, along with Mr. Quinn's embroidered waistcoats added more fun to the story. I just loved the way the story wrapped up, and that Charlotte had a HEA that was truly happy.
I also appreciated that the story is well-edited, as so many JAFF stories are appalling in that regard.
My one point of confusion is that this is labeled as #14 in the Sweet Regency Romance series, but there is Lady Catherine Decamps that is also labeled as #14 in the series.
I definitely recommend reading this story!
