Blurb: “Little surprises everywhere, but nothing dangerous. A few events in the background story of Pride and Prejudice happen differently, leading to an altered history. Just a fun little story of small twists in the tale, like ‘The one where...’"

>>Rating: Clean: 6-short-snippets where a ‘What-If’ changes everything to the canon account. I love the creativity this author takes with her writing. What fun.

The author takes all the major turning points/triggers in Pride and Prejudice and presents them as a series of events that leave no angst, no misunderstandings, etc.

short sweet clean profoundly low angst unless you are a Lady C & and Mr Collins fanboy
a bunch of cute one offs that make P&P lose both Pride and Prejudice

[Sam H. · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's opposite day at P&P! If what happened here was what JA thought, there would have been no Pride and Prejudice. But this is a quick vignette, of the easiest path to HEA for ODC.

Pride and Prejudice - Six very short enjoyable stories

[Laura · Rating 3 out of 5]

Super short stories more like paragraphs to be added to Pride and Prejudice. Or ways the story could change by just one action.
