Synopsis

"Juggling multiple character accents and tones with ease, [narrator Joniece] Abbott-Pratt shines as Hara, her lilting and curious tone perfectly complementing the novel’s relatable go-getter protagonist." -- Booklist

In Evelyn Lozada and Holly Lorincz's lightly inspired Pride and Prejudice romantic comedy The Wrong Mr. Darcy, two unlikely people discover the error of judging by first impressions and the beauty of family, friendship and love.

Hara Isari has big ambitions and they won’t be sidetracked by her mother’s insisting that she settle down soon. She dreams of leaving her small-town newspaper behind, as well as her felon father, and building a career as a sportswriter, so when she is chosen to exclusively interview a basketball superstar, she jumps at the chance. It’s time to show the bigwigs what she’s truly made of.

At the same time, she meets a rookie on the rise, Derek Darcy. Darcy is incredibly handsome, obnoxiously proud, and has a major chip on his shoulder. Hara can’t think of a man more arrogant and infuriating. However, fate keeps bringing them together—from locker rooms to elegant parties, to the storm of the century—and what begins as a clash might just be more complicated than Hara anticipated. When she begins to see Darcy in a new light, Hara is not quite sure if she should drop the ball or play the love game.

This was a complicated angsty sports Romance. This is another supposed PMP retelling, but even with my very limited knowledge of PMP I don’t think this worked. What I liked about this book was the enemies to lovers relationship between Hara and Derek. They both had preconceived ideas of the other t......more

Goodreads review by Cyndi on April 24, 2020

Although there are some wonderful quotes from Pride and Prejudice that introduce each chapter perfectly, our hero is not Mr. Darcy from Austen's novel. He has some of the personality but he is a different character. Equally romantic, though. Our heroine is not Elizabeth, either. She is a wonderfully......more

What the fuck did I just read? This would make Jane Austen weep if she was still alive today. It was God awful and my brain is still processing what I just read. "The Wrong Mr. Darcy" was too choppy at parts for my liking and didn't flow consistently. Moreso the sentences and most sce......more
