\"\"<\/a>No matter from which country we are, all of us, the readers of Jane Austen books, feel the same. We are touched, we are impressed and we are influenced by Jane Austen words.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed a lot the Indian-American-British version written by Sonali Dev.
\nIt was fascinating for me to read about an Indian family that chose to raise their U.S.A. born children with an American mentality, but took them to India for each summer holiday so they can be influenced by their Indian traditions.<\/p>\n

I chose the part where\u00a0Dr. Trisha Raj (neurosurgeon working at the Stanford’s hospital) declares her feelings for DJ (Darcy James) <\/strong>Caine:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It’s because…because…Because I’m attracted to you.
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/em>I…I swear this doesn’t ever happen to me with anyone else. It’s…it’s just you.<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nThe way I feel around you…
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/em>I can’t even imagine why, or when it happened or how. I mean…look at us! We have absolutely nothing in common. Not one thing.”<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

His face did not alter at all except for the slightest tightening of his chin that deepened the blasted dimple. And she knew she had said something wrong, something to freeze him even more. She wanted to take her words back, but that train had left the station.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Surely you see why this would be utterly terrifying for me. I’ve never been with someone like you. We…us…us getting together…it would be a total disaster.
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/em>You can’t possibly not see how ridiculous this is. You…You…I’ve never dated anyone who isn’t a physician…let alone someone who hasn’t been to college.”<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Just saying those words made her look like she was going to burst into tears.<\/span><\/p>\n

“You cook for a living. I’m terrified of kitchens.
\nBut I don’t care.
\nI…I…When I’m with you, I feel, I feel…Maybe we should just get this out of our systems.”<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
