Book Description

Miss Elizabeth Bennet is a young woman of character and fortitude, one undaunted by the challenges life has presented to her. As the youngest daughter of a country gentleman, she has always been secure, never concerned for the future or her place in it. When her father suddenly passes away, Elizabeth is left adrift in a house with her mother, her eldest sister, and her father's senseless heir. Though the situation is not comfortable, Elizabeth meets it with fortitude and good humor. As Elizabeth becomes old enough to join society, her sister Jane marries Mr. Bingley, and Elizabeth follows them to London to partake of the season. Elizabeth soon puts her troubles behind her, enjoying herself and meeting new people, including the enigmatic Mr. Darcy and his charming sister. Love starts to bloom between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, but not all of Elizabeth's troubles are behind her. For there are those opposed to her connection to the gentleman, and moreover, Mr. Darcy has demons of his own to overcome before he can find happiness and pursue love.
