Pride And Prejudice: Hidden Lusts - Softcover

"Ms. Szereto has, while honoring the original manuscript, done an excellent job in inserting those hidden lusts that could very well have been in in the minds of each and every character from the original novel."
--Book Reader's Heaven
"Szereto has replaced modesty in all my favorite characters with porno-pumping desire."
--College Candy
"Dear Lord, this is "Pride and Prejudice," is nothing sacred? Yet I couldn't stop reading."
--Lynette's Two Cents
"I was delighted with this book, anyone who loved the original classic should read "Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts" by Mitzi Szereto!"
--Readaholics Anonymous
"This novel is quite respectful of the original. Szereto's version is hilarious and accomplished. Who is to say that Jane Austen wouldn't have written something like this if the zeitgeist of her era had been more like that of ours? In years to come, this book will probably be regarded as a classic in its own right."
- Jean Roberta/Lizardlez

"Read it if for no other reason the novelty or seeing peoples faces when they think your all smart and reading a classic, then they look closer and see it's smut."
--Getting Naughty Between the Stacks
"(Szereto's) sophisticated and humorous touch to retelling a well-known story is both absorbing and clear. I still find it impressive how well her rewrite lines up with the original novel, and look forward to her future endeavors."
--Romancing the Book
"I giggled, laughed and smiled all through "Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts.""
--Another Look Book Reviews
"Put simply, "Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts" is delicious smut... Szereto has written us some healthy, Victorian erotic...everyone enjoys a good romp or three and lives happily ever after."
--EDGE
"This is a 'must read' for anyone who loves spicy and entertaining literature. You'll be shocked, uncomfortably aroused and planning to re-read it over and over. Bravo Ms. Szereto for bringing us all a little more culture."
--Whipped Cream Reviews
"Despite the sexy times, Mitzi has kept the story faithful to how Austen would have written it, so the style of it is perfect, and flows well."
--Love Romance Passion
"A refreshing change while keeping the classic storyline intact... This was my first novel by Mitzi Szereto, but definitely not my last!"
--JoJo's Book Corner
"Szereto has captured Austen's voice and tone and the essence of her characters so well that you might've believed that it was written by Austen herself -- but for all the lustful thoughts and naughty shenanigans that appear in just about every chapter!"
--Pace J. Miller
"It is my personal opinion that Austen would not be rolling over in her grave over Szereto's novel. In fact, she might laugh a little."
--The Dying Book Affair
""Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts" is historical parody, Regency romance, erotica, and satire. It's a mashup of all mashups. And most of all, it's a whole lot of fun!"
--Mitzi Szereto, in an interview with Joey Pinkney
"I was extremely conscious at all times to write in the voice of Jane Austen. I wanted "Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts" to be seamless, with nothing marring the Austen feel and story-telling style or, I should add, her use of language."
--Mitzi Szereto, in an interview with The Book Rat
"I read "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" and let me tell you something: this is no "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies." There's way more seminal fluid."
--Cherry Trifle
"Ms. Szereto brings new life to this classic. The original book seems dry by today's standards, but this new version will keep the reader entertained from first page to last."
--Sensual Reads
"Everything from the tone to the dialogue is executed superbly... This adaptation of Jane Austen is essential for collectors of literary erotica and, dare I say, is just as fine if not more riveting and sexy read than the original."
--Lucrezia Magazine
"Mitzi Szereto follows the original story line but endows each of the characters with their own quirks of fancy and sexuality with no shortage of imagination."
--Jane Austen Prequels and Sequels Review
"If Jane Austen had drunk a great deal of absinthe and slipped out of her petticoat . . . Mitzi Szereto's erotic parody of "Pride and Prejudice" might well be the result!"
--Susie Bright
"This is the book Jane Austen would have written, if only she'd had the nerve!"
--Reading Lark
"Polite manners and civilized society are juxtaposed with the seething sexual undercurrents of Szereto's devising. Some ardent Jane Austen fans might scream 'Sacrilege!', but indeed others might raise their eyebrows in interest at this innovative take on a classic as I do and say 'Why not?'"
--Fiendishly Bookish
"[S]exy and often quite humorous . . . Enthusiastically recommended."
--"Library Journal"
"Thank God for Mitzi Szereto! Now the literary purists have someone new to go after with their pitchforks. Adding zombies to "Pride and Prejudice" was one thing, but SEX SEX SEX? It's sacrilege! Raunchy, hilarious, subversive sacrilege . . . which is the best kind, of course."
--Steve Hockensmith, author of "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls"
"If Jane Austen can survive the onslaught of zombies, she can surely swoon all over at the thought of Mitzi Szereto's witty and explicit new exploration of her classic novel. A sexy hoot!"
--Maxim Jakubowski
"Mitzi Szereto's deliciously erotic retelling of "Pride and Prejudice" boldly turns Austen's classic on its pretty little head, knickers-side up. With keen wit (I laughed out loud many times), elegant prose, and a wicked imagination, Szereto exposes hidden lusts and truths, paying irreverent homage to Austen's romantic entanglements of yore while at the same time revealing a great deal about contemporary matters sexual and otherwise."
--Janice Eidus, author of "The Last Jewish Virgin" and "The War of the Rosens"
"Mitzi Szereto's "Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts" is a luscious tribute to Jane Austen. This erotic version of the classic honors the wit, romance and sociological observation of the original. At the same time, it's as though Szereto knows the wicked thoughts that went through many of our minds went we first read Pride and Prejudice. Austen lovers will savor this hot Regency romance -- perhaps even your aunt who worships the PBS versions. And those who don't love Austen can enjoy this entertaining, smart and sensual novel."
--Polly Frost, author of "Deep Inside: Extreme Erotic Fantasies and Sex Scenes"
"Mitzi Szereto's adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice" is a mysterious and delightful uncovering of random sexual encounters among the landed gentry. You will have a ball!"
--Nick Belardes, author of "Random Obsessions" and illustrator of "West of Here"
"Wicked, tongue in cheek (and elsewhere) take on Pride and Prejudice--a wild, funny, sexual romp. Austen is shaken up, sexed up, and stirred up in Szereto's naughty, laugh out loud, exuberant homage to P&P."
--Janet Mullany, author of "Jane and the Damned"
"How fun it is to wander in the minds of seemingly proper tea-and-crumpets men and women, set to the tune of Jane Austen's romantic tale. Szereto creates a parody that's full of sex of all kinds (including taboo topics like homosexuality, adultery, and BDSM), but it is classy at the same time."

Imagine that Jane Austen had written the opening line of her satirical novel Pride and Prejudice this way: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a good romp and a good wife -- although not necessarily from the same person or from the opposite sex." In Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts Mr. Darcy has never been more devilish and the seemingly chaste Elizabeth never more turned on.

The entire cast of characters from Austen's classic is here in this rewrite that goes all the way. This time Mr. Bingley and his sister both have designs on Mr. Darcy's manhood; Elizabeth's bff Charlotte marries their family's strange relation and stumbles upon a secret world of feminine relations more to her liking; and, in this telling, men are not necessarily the the only dominating sex. And of course there's some good old fashioned bodice ripping that shows no pride or prejudice and reveals hot hidden lusts in every page-turning chapter.
