When pride meets gravity
Elizabeth Bennet loathes insufferable Mr. Darcy. When a series of mishaps repeatedly throws them into each other’s company—first with her unconscious at Netherfield, then him injured at Rosings—Elizabeth begins to see a different side of the proud man she thought she knew. But it’s not until Pemberley that Elizabeth realizes her greatest enemy has somehow become the man with whom she has fallen deeply in love. If only she could be sure that he feels the same for her. Can two stubborn hearts and three accidental tumbles result in the wedding of a lifetime? This tender, low-angst Regency variation of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice proves that pride does indeed come before a fall…and that, in this case, love always comes after.

4 1/2 rounded up
Each of Christie Capps' (Joy Dawn King) stories are a "joy" to read. They are individually unique and I love that you can enjoy a complete story in one sitting.
In this sweet story, both Darcy and Elizabeth have an accident at different times where the other rescues or cares for them. Each of these times, they learn a little bit more of the other. Both Darcy and Elizabeth start to see their errors, prejudices and pride, thus able to work through them without collateral damage or excessive anger.
This was an automatic read as soon as I saw that it was available on KU. This will be a story I will gladly buy and re-read. Thank you, Joy, for another wonderful story!
Now add this this the excellent narration of Stevie Zimmerman and I love this story even more!!!

In Falling Slowly, Elizabeth is injured when she falls by the lake at Netherfield Park, and because Darcy rescues and carries her back, he offers marriage due to the compromising situation. She refuses, and because of her injury, she never attends the ball—Darcy leaves the day after. Months later, at Kent, there’s another fall, and Darcy seriously injures his leg trying to rescue Elizabeth once more. He doesn’t see her again until she and the Gardiners visit Pemberley.
For such a short story, this novella offers an impressive amount of witty and heartfelt dialogue between Elizabeth and Darcy—sometimes while they’re semi-conscious or drunk adding that touch of humour I love. Interruptions at key moments try their patience, but the tone remains light and low-angst throughout. Darcy’s rescues reveal his protective nature, gradually shifting Elizabeth’s opinion of him, while her nurturing personality endears her to Darcy even more.
Highly recommend.
Delightful in every way.
