RESISTIVE CURRENTS by Karen M Cox: Beth Bennet is an engineering student in the 1980s, a male dominated world, and learns her teacher's assistant is the handsome but equally arrogant Will Darcy. He both attracts and repels her until an unexpected setback and the guidance from her great-grandmother’s 1906 diary help her reconcile her feelings with her present-day reality. In the scene, see how quickly the classic 'meet cute' becomes 'meet ugly.'
