Mr. William Darcy seems to be a social klutz. After an
unsuccessful attempt at a marriage proposal to Miss
Elizabeth Bennet several months prior, he is found
suffering the doldrums as this novel opens. His sister and
entire household of servants are very concerned about him.
They confide in a visiting cousin who speaks directly to
William and finds out he is berating himself for his
blunder of a proposal and learns how much he really wants
to make things work with Miss Bennet. His cousin encourages
him to go back and see her again and begin the courtship
all over.
Mr. Darcy does just that. He accompanies a good friend to
Netherfield, who just happens to also be pursuing
Elizabeth's sister. This proves to be the perfect
springboard for seeing Elizabeth again. William is not met
with hostility, yet finds her neither encouraging nor
discouraging. Throughout their new courtship, they discuss
their misunderstandings, their misinterpretations of each
other's intentions, and each one apologizes for jumping to
conclusions. He agrees to go slowly, but she is determined
to hold the cards on whether things move along at all.
This story is a battle of wills of two very strong-minded
people. Abigail Reynolds writes a new ending to
Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE in this historical
romance. Will Mr. Darcy get his precious Elizabeth? Will
she still be able to make decisions for herself as she
wants, or will she have to let him make them for her?
You'll enjoy this novel's happy ending.
In this sexy Jane Austen sequel by author Abigail Reynolds,
Darcy follows Elizabeth back to Hertfordshire after his
botched marriage proposal and sets about making himself so
irresistible, she finds her impulses winning out over her
sense of propriety...
