Liz Bennet treats athletes' bodies and writes about the industry that uses them. As a sports physiotherapist at the Miners' academy and the author of a widely read, critically sharp sports blog, she has an unusually honest view of the distance between reputation and reality in professional sport. Which is why she should have been harder to fool.

When Fitzwilliam Darcy, Olympic gold medallist, franchise owner, and the most successful and least approachable figure in the sport, snubs her at a pre-season gala, she doesn't hesitate to let her readers know. She's been right about men like him before. She knows exactly what the dismissal cost him: nothing.

Set in a world built on measurable performance, where numerical certainty creates the illusion that everything else can be quantified too, Pride & Performance is a propulsive retelling of Austen's masterpiece for readers who know that the most important things about a person never show up in the metrics.

And in the confetti and noise of a championship celebration, two people who have been misreading each other's signals get the chance of a final play.

For fans of slow-burn romance, found-in-the-fine-print character reveals, and love stories built on something real. Book 5 in the Modern Pride & Prejudice Series.
