Spank Me Mr. Darcy

In writing her erotic novel, Spank Me, Mr. Darcy, heretofore SMMD for the sake of brevity, Lyssa Trevor has essentially copied the original text and retroactively added in the her contributions, primarily sex, as well as a different take on the characters and their relationships. For example, the conversation between Mrs. and Mr. Bennet, for example, that constitutes the very beginning of the both books about Mr. Bingley coming to Netherfield is almost word for word the same. Compare, from the original: “‘My dear Mr. Bennet,’ said his lady to him one day, ‘have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?’” (Austen 5); and from the adaptation: “‘My dear Mr. Bennet,’ said his lady to him one day as she removed the ball gag from his mouth,

Elizabeth also makes it clear that she wants to marry Darcy, and he in turn makes clear his unwillingness to do so, for the same reasons described in Pride and Prejudice. Events progress as they do in the book- Mr. Collins still arrives, and is rejected, and marries Charlotte, instead, and Mr. Bingley leaves Netherfield and stays away under the influence of his sisters and friend. The rest of the major changes to the book occur at Hunsford. While there, Darcy and Elizabeth resume their sexual relationship, at which point she changes her mind about virginity and allows vaginal penetration, after which she has that infamous conversation with Colonel Fitzwilliam about Mr. Bingley. Then Darcy proposes, and she soundly rejects him; notably, much of the dialogue has been cut out, and that which remains was much altered. Then she receives the letter, completely changes her mind about him, and then Jane writes to her to tell her that Lydia has eloped with
