In this sensuous and romantic Pride and Prejudice sequel Darcy and Elizabeth fall more deeply in love as time goes on.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is at a crossroads, tormented by the choice between familial expectations and the wishes of his heart. Under pressure to marry his cousin, Miss Anne de Bourgh, he instead proposes to Elizabeth Bennet, assuming that a penniless girl with four sisters can ill afford to say no. But he underestimates her spirit and determination. After refusing the detestable Mr. Darcy, Elizabeth is relieved when he retreats to Kent, leaving her to manage her sisters’ increasingly inappropriate fascination with the militia officers stationed in Meryton. Worse, her overbearing cousin Mr. Collins is determined to take one of the beautiful Bennet girls as his bride. When Elizabeth is betrayed by Mr. Denny and Mr. Wickham at the Netherfield Ball, a scandal ensues that destroys all her sister's hopes. Overwhelmed with guilt at the part she played, Elizabeth escapes to Hunsford—only to find herself thrown together with Mr. Darcy once again. Can she resist the handsome but proud man, or will he find a way to win her heart?
