Oh my goodness how beautiful is the cover! Go ahead and judge this book by its cover because it's as lovely a read as the cover.
This book is a retelling of Pride and Prejudice which is one of my favorite stories. In this modern retelling, we have Liza the only DJ who gives a Jam--what a great tagline and Dorsey a rich developer. The book is set in DC and has a diverse cast of characters. I loved how Nikki Payne take the character of Lady Catherine De Bourgh and turns her into a him and make him a misogynist Senator.
Nikki Payne managing to include all the best lines and scenes from the original tale by Jane Austen but puts her own twist on it in such a wonderful way. This book is really a chef's kiss of a retelling. As I was reading the story there were many times where I had a smile on my face because this is such a fun retelling . Nikki Payne also brings the heat—unlike
the classic tale we know and love, we get sex scenes between Liza and Dorsey.
5 stars —if you like the original you must read this and if you are not familiar then I think you will enjoy this enemies to
lovers romance !
