Reverie & Rancour: A Pride & Prejudice Vagary
It was a dream until it was a nightmare: Elizabeth Bennet stumbles into Fitzwilliam Darcy’s bedchamber while staying at Netherfield. Unhappily for them both, Mrs. Bennet finds them there and cries compromise, obliging them to marry.
Darcy, believing Elizabeth responsible for the scheme, determines that she shall not benefit from her deception. Even as he strives to maintain his implacable resentment—and to all appearances succeeds—he finds himself fighting warmer feelings for his wife. Elizabeth, meanwhile, always determined to make the best of her situation, tries desperately to build a life with a man who seems to despise her.
Join Darcy and Elizabeth on a journey full of angst, romance, and a dash of melodrama, as they learn how shattered trust maybe restored. You are likely to yell at Darcy, weep for Elizabeth, and rejoice as love at last triumphs over fear and doubt. Buy it here.
