I will say that the dysphoria in this novel gets really heavy at times, so much so that I did have to take a break from reading it but it's happy ending made up for it, really! The characters for the most part are very much so loveable too!! Not to mention, it was such a pleasant surprise to find out that
The novel's conclusion isn't the most realistic, which I didn't mind. Though, I would recommend keeping that in mind when approaching the story itself !!

As a hardcore Pride and Prejudice fan (Kiera Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen for the win), I wasn't sure how I would feel about a remixed version, but Most Ardently is a triumph!
If you know P&P you know the rough storyline, but here we get Oliver Bennet- still falling in love with Darcy, still facing Wickham dillemas- but all against the background of his transness and the expected path and responsbilities placed upon him since most people in his life assume him to be a woman. This adds another dimension to the story that layers really well on Elizabeth's traditional tale.
Fair warning: there is deadnaming, dysphoria, and transphobia BUT good things happen for Oliver and he ultimatley ends up happy!
