From the authors of Emma of 83rd Street, a modern retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice set in the Hamptons, where classes clash, rumours run wild, and love has an infuriating habit of popping up where least expected...
 
It’s a truth universally acknowledged – well, by Elizabeth Bennet anyway – that there’s nothing worse than summer in the Hamptons. She should know, she’s lived there her whole life. Every summer, her hometown is inundated with rich New Yorkers who party ‘til dawn then disappear for the rest of the year. Not that Lizzy blames them, she’s anxious to leave too. But after putting her own dreams on hold to help her family, she’s still here, surfing the same beach every morning and waiting for something to change. She’s not holding her breath though… not even when her sister Jane starts flirting with Charlie Pierce, the hot new bachelor in town, who introduces Lizzy to his even hotter friend.

Will Darcy is everything Lizzy Bennet is not. Aloof, arrogant… and rich. Of course, money has never mattered to him. In fact, it’s number one on his long list of things that irk him. Number two? His friend Charlie’s insistence on setting him up with his new girlfriend's sharp-tongued sister. Lizzy Bennet is all wrong for him… maybe that's why he can’t stop thinking about her.

Lizzy is sure Will hates everyone. He thinks she wilfully misunderstands them. But just as they strike an uneasy truce, mistakes and misconceptions threaten the peace. Between a hurricane, a drunken voicemail and a deceptive real estate agent, the two must sift through the gossip and lies to protect the happiness of the people they love – even if it means sacrificing their own. But when the truth also forces them to see each other in an entirely new light, they must swallow their pride as they learn that love is a lot like surfing: sometimes the only way to survive is to let yourself fall.
