When Elizabeth Bennet first knew Mr. Darcy, she despised him and was sure he felt the same. Angered by his pride and reserve, influenced by the lies of the charming Mr. Wickham, she never troubled herself to believe he was anything other than the worst of men—until, one day, he unexpectedly proposed. Mr. Darcy’s passionate avowal of love causes Elizabeth to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about him. What she knows is that he is rich, handsome, clever, and very much in love with her. She, on the other hand, is poor, and can expect a future of increasing poverty if she does not marry. The incentives for her to accept him are strong, but she is honest enough to tell him that she does not return his affections. He says he can accept that—but will either of them ever be truly happy in a relationship of unequal affection? Diverging from Jane Austen’s classic novel Pride and Prejudice at the proposal in the Hunsford parsonage, this story explores the kind of man Darcy is, even before his “proper humbling,” and how such a man, so full of pride, so much in love, might have behaved had Elizabeth chosen to accept his original proposal.

Mr Darcy's Proposal, is a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice. Included are all the main characters, but their journey is slightly different to one Miss Austen created. This story has a dash more excitement, and a touch more love. Fitzwilliam Darcy, realising he can no longer ignore or suppress his feelings for Elizabeth Bennet, returns to Hertfordshire only one week after leaving. But even the best-laid plans can go awry, and his first encounter with Elizabeth is disastrous, leaving her with the same opinion of him as before. When Elizabeth's father visit's Mr Darcy and insists on him joining the family for dinner, Darcy reluctantly accepts. While the men are alone, enjoying a brandy, Mr Darcy confides in Mr Bennet the true depth of his love and admiration for Elizabeth, while assuring him that his intentions are strictly honourable. Reluctantly, Mr Bennet agrees when Darcy asks permission to court Elizabeth, confident that his favourite daughter will refuse the austere and unapproachable, Mr Darcy. However, Mr Bennet insists on one stipulation. Darcy has only one month, until Christmastide, to win Elizabeth's heart, by which time Elizabeth MUST declare her love for him. If she fails to do this, then Darcy must leave Meryton and forget her forever. Darcy agrees, confident of his success. Tentatively, he begins to woo his beloved. Then, just as things seem to be progressing nicely, Caroline Bingley, George Wickham and Elizabeth's own sister, Lydia, throw everything into jeopardy. Caroline's reckless actions force Mr Darcy and Elizabeth, together with Mr Bennet, Mr Bingley and Georgiana, to set off for London, where Darcy is determined to deal with his nemesis once and for all. Mr Darcy's Proposal uses English grammar, spelling and historical terms and phrases throughout.
