Love at first sight? Not hardly. When Darcy Fitzwilliam first meets Elizabeth Austin, the sparks fly-and not in a good way. Sent to the small town of Longborn, Texas, on business, Darcy wants nothing to do with the local yokels until Elizabeth steps in and helps her with a prickly situation. It's a comedy of errors in this alternative take on a beloved classic. One that might just have Jane Austen rolling over in her grave.

M.K. McGowan currently resides in Austin Texas with her partner and their devious and demanding drove of dogs and cats. When not writing, she can usually be found working in the garden, or, more likely, taking a nap.
