" An] amusing and self-aware retread of Pride and Prejudice... a] witty romp."-- Publishers Weekly The Perfect Hero When handsome, mysterious Darius Wainwright strolls into town, the Book Club Belles are instantly smitten with this brooding good looks and prideful demeanor. It's as if he walked out of the pages of their favorite new novel, a scandalous romance called Pride and Prejudice . But Justina Penny can't understand why her fellow Belles are starry-eyed in the newcomer's arrogant presence--surely a wicked Wickham would be infinitely more fun... Justina is the opposite of Darius's ideal woman--not that he's looking for romance. But when he discovers her stealing apples from his uncle's orchard, he can't resist his own thieving impulse. A stolen kiss from the mischievous Miss Penny leaves Darius wanting much, much more. If it's a dashing villain she desires, Darius is more than willing to play the part...
