Finding Mr. Darcy: High School Edition

by Erin Butler

Release Date: 09/16/14

Summary from Goodreads:

Sixteen-year-old Liza Johnson takes fangirl to a whole new level of crazy when she decides to take dating advice from her literary hero: Jane Austen.

With the help of her best friends, Liza sheds her ancient-speak and complete Austen wardrobe for something a bit more modern in an attempt at finding her very own Mr. Darcy.

Enter Will, the new kid and Liza's Darcy incarnate. Add her BFF's ex to mix and the sexy Brit who kisses with an accent, and Liza is in trouble.

So, what's a girl to do? Without her mom to go to relationship advice, Liza turns to the only person she can truly trust with matters of the heart via her mother's copy of COMPLETED WORKS OF JANE AUSTEN.

It's too bad Austen's heroines have never played Spin the Bottle or Seven Minutes in Heaven. Liza's determined to find her true Austen-esque happy ending, but if she can't trust herself instead of books, she just might end up in her own tragic love story.

Excerpt from Finding Mr. Darcy: High School Edition

Janie burst through my bedroom door and stared me down, hands landing on her hips. “You’re delusional if you think you’re wearing that.”

I looked down at the outfit I wore to school. “Looks fine to me.”

“Ugh, Liza! Why can’t I have a normal best friend?”

“Normal? You have pink in your hair!”

“Whatever.”

Janie walked in and I got up to shut the door. I was pretty sure Dad sat downstairs watching the Jays, his Triple-A baseball team, but still. He didn’t need to overhear our girl conversations.

Janie toted a backpack along with her, which slightly frightened me. “Is that your word of the day or something?”

“What?”

“Whatever. You’ve said it to me like five hundred times today.”

She rolled her eyes. “What-ever.” We busted up laughing. “Come on.” She tugged on my arm. “It’s makeover time.”

“Oh no. I was afraid of that.”

Janie meandered toward the bed. “What are you reading?”

I reached out for the magazine, but Janie snatched it from me. “About Cole Foster.”

“Cole Foster?” She frowned at the glossy pages.

“If they ever remake Pride and Prejudice, he’d be the perfect Mr. Darcy.”

“Cole Foster? Isn’t he from that stupid soap on channel five?”

I yanked the magazine from her hands. “Yes. He’s gorgeous. Very agreeable if you ask me.”

“Whatever.” She plopped down on my flowery quilt and winked at me. “And who would play Lizzie?”

“Duh, that’s easy. Me.”

Janie shoved my shoulder. “You are delusional. If you are going to get Cole Foster, or Mr. Darcy, or any boy to even look at you, you need a makeover. A clothes makeover.” She stood up and went straight to my closet. “Where’s that purple top I got you for your birthday?”

“What purple top?” I mumbled.

Janie spun around with her hands on her hips.

“You know, the one that doesn’t have anything J.A. on it.” She circled her finger around her chest as if I was a child that needed a demonstration.

“The only purple top I have is the ‘Jane Austen is my Homegirl’ t-shirt.”

“BS.” Janie turned around and fanned through my clothes. “I gave you that shirt for nights exactly like this. Now where is it?” The hangers raked against the bar as she searched my closet.

I pointed to the very end. “All the way to the right.”

“Thank you,” Janie said. Her smile grew as she pushed aside all my precious t-shirts. “This is going to look so good on you.”

“I don’t see why I can’t wear this.” I looked down. WWJD What Would Jane Do? “It’s new.” And it was awesome.
