One joined to prove it wrong. The other to prove it worked. They matched anyway.

Elizabeth Bennet didn’t join TrueNorth to find love. She joined to expose it. As a journalist known for her sharp tongue and sharper observations, she’s ready to dismantle the dating app built by emotionally detached tech CEO Fitzwilliam Darcy. But when an anonymous match leads her to a real-life first date with the very man she’s skewered online, she does what any self-respecting critic would do—she walks out.

Then, she does something unexpected.
She proposes three dates. For research. For accountability. Maybe even for curiosity. After all, if his precious algorithm matched them, it deserves to be tested.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is the creator of TrueNorth, a man who believes emotions are measurable and compatibility can be coded. Signing up for a low-profile test of his algorithm, he expects proof of success, not romance. What he definitely doesn’t expect is to be matched with the same woman who criticised his keynote speech and called his life’s work “#BigDataBigDelusion.”

Three dates. No promises. Just data.
But when intentions collide with attraction, and judgment gives way to something real, both Elizabeth and Darcy must ask themselves the one question no algorithm can answer: what if love isn’t logical?

To Match Mr. Darcy is a smart, funny, and emotionally layered modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice—perfect for JAFF fans and readers who love enemies-to-lovers romance, sharp banter, and the chaos of falling for the last person you intended.
