Why this must be read: This "shameless abuse of a classic novel" (as Gigi puts it) is a wonderful, hilarious homage to Austen's Pride And Prejudice, with the classic plot recast with Enterprise characters. When the estate next to the Phloxes, Beramor, is let to an eligible bachelor, Mr. Archer, Mrs. Phlox immediately begins scheming to marry off one of her five children. Indeed, Mr. Archer takes to Trip, much to everyone's joy, but all planning goes awry when silent son Travis runs off with someone inappropriate, leading Malcolm to rush after his brother—only to find love with Archer's snooty friend from the City. With hilarious references to Enterprise (and other Trek series) and wonderfully anachronistic details, Gigi pokes at the fan world while displaying a true love for both her source texts.

Mr. Archer was good-looking and uncomplicated. He had inherited his fortune from his industrialist father Sir Henry Archer, designer and manufacturer of the first steam locomotive to sport aft thrusters and a series of attractive, if ultimately useless, blinking lights. The Archer heir himself had held many jobs, lately researcher of gazelle mating habits at Oxford University. Before purchasing Bermanor, he had resided in the pleasant, quiet village of Syndication with his longtime companion, a naval admiral named Albert who had gone out one day to buy a package of rolling papers and had never returned.
