A Goodreads user asked Melanie Dickerson:

I just finished your lovely story of my new best friend Leorah Langdon and loved it with all my heart. But while I was reading it I couldn't help but notice the many parallels to the beloved Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. I wondered if maybe it was an inspiration for 'A Viscount's Proposal'. Could you oblige me? I'd love to know.

Melanie Dickerson Hi, Anna! I definitely was inspired by my favorite novel, Pride and Prejudice, when I wrote A Viscount's Proposal. I'd never written a story about a hero and heroine who completely disliked each other and thought it would be fun to do. And it was. :-) It's one of my favorites of all the books I've written.
