As Master of Pemberley, Fitzwilliam Darcy has shouldered the weight of responsibility while his twin brother Horatio has lived a more carefree life. Elizabeth Bennet meets both men and has to decide if one will win her heart.
Mistaking Mr. Darcy is a variation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice set in the Regency Era.
Mistaking Mr Darcy A Pride and Prejudice Variation edition by Jane Grix Romance eBooks
This is very interesting! Horatio Darcy is an identical twin to Fitzwilliam Darcy with the charm (and some of the bad habits) of George Wickham. In fact, Horatio and Wickham continue to be friendly since, unlike Fitzwilliam, Horatio still believes Wickham was sincerely in love with Georgiana. Naturally, when he meets Elizabeth he can't keep himself from flirting even though he's engaged to marry a well-dowered lady in London.I thought the plot was well constructed, and it kept my interest to the end. The writing is without any significant grammar or spelling errors, though sometimes it doesn't seem to flow smoothly. My biggest criticism is that it failed to touch this reader's emotions. I was actually surprised when Elizabeth accepted Fitzwilliam's second proposal, because it didn't appear that her opinion of him had completely turned around yet.
Despite that, the story is unique and entertaining, and I enjoyed it.

Mistaking Mr Darcy A Pride and Prejudice Variation edition by Jane Grix Romance eBooks Reviews
Two Darcys who are identical twins is such an interesting idea. These stories are sweet. We get more than the original Pride and Prejudice story. Mrs. Bennet has many weddings to attend. Whatever will she do with herself? This is unlike any of Jane Grix's novellas that I have read before. I think you will be pleasantly surprised as the events unfold.
Thoroughly enjoyed this story!
This P&p variation seemed a bit rushed. The angst seemed to be overcome & dealt with swiftly. I tend to like a bit more angst. Darcy identical twins was a nice twist.
When I started and found out it was about twins, I almost stopped reading, I'm so glad I didn't. The others have said it better than I could except to say that I really enjoyed how the author related the parts of this story that are usually given to direct quotes from Jane Austen. It was done so well.
This short novel is a fun version of P&P, with a twist. Otherwise, it is extremely faithful to canon. It has a few typos and a grammatical error or two, but they’re not very distracting. A good read.
I enjoyed the idea of twin Darcy brothers of such varied personalities. But then we couldn't have two stoic Darcys. This is a zany romp that starts out like a regular JAFF with Fitzwilliam Darcy's proposal at Kent being refused by a very prejudiced Elizabeth. That was just the beginning of the fun. Bingley is a good chap to stick to his plans for happiness regardless of what Darcy said. The three weddings on one day was a hoot. Good epilogue, but I would have preferred a longer book with a more detailed epilogue (what happened to the Colonel, Anne, Kitty and Georgiana). How did Lydia actually make a silk purse of a pig's ear? This is my first book by Ms Grix, but it will not be my last.
“The success of marriage comes not in finding the right person, but in the ability of both partners to adjust to the real person they inevitably realize they married.” John Fisher
The above quote becomes apparent much later in this story. At first, it doesn’t seem relevant. However, when the couples are revealed, you will understand.
Our story runs along the canon outline with the exception of an additional character. Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy has a younger brother. Younger by about twenty minutes; he is a twin. Horatio Darcy is a scoundrel and gambler but not of the same caliber as Wickham. Our story progresses along the same lines, Darcy has to bail his brother out of debt on more than one occasion. We also have Horatio observing his older brother in the presence of Elizabeth Bennet and is very aware his brother is in love.
After Bingley and Jane marry, our timeline is back on track. We have Elizabeth in Kent, the Hunsford proposal, the rejection, and then the letter. Months later Elizabeth is traveling through Derbyshire with her Aunt and Uncle Gardiner. This time the meeting at Pemberley goes very differently. When the Bingley’s arrive, Miss Bingley is beside herself that Elizabeth is in attendance at Pemberley.
The author pulled a good one and I was so upset, I nearly threw my NOOK. OMG!!! Caroline, you bottom-feeding, conniving, b-witch what have you done? I was so upset with her. Why she isn’t banned for life from the Darcy properties I will never know. OMG! The author really pulled one and I fell for it, hook-line-and-sinker. I can hear her snickering and giggling as readers hit this part of the book. OMG!
Darcy, at the first part of the book, was a prig and I had a very hard time liking him. I also didn’t like how Horatio kept taking up for Wickham. That just grated me as wrong. There didn’t seem to be an explanation sufficient enough to make him aware of Wickham’s true character [or lack thereof].
This was a cute, clean, story with minimal angst… well there was that one scene. Overall, I enjoyed it. I can’t describe the parings without spoiling the reveal. So, you will have to read it for yourself.
