Story
Darcy proposes to Elizabeth during her stay at Netherfield, while Jane is recovering—well before the disastrous proposal at Hunsford, and before Elizabeth has heard Wickham’s full story or visited Rosings. Because his attraction is stronger, or his pride momentarily loses control, he confesses his feelings too soon. Elizabeth, unarmed with Wickham’s lies and still unsure of her own opinions, hesitates. The social tension between their families and class remains, but the timeline shifts everything.

Story
The autumn of 1811 arrives in Hertfordshire with an unexpected breath of joy. Netherfield is finally let, and after several rounds of eager speculation, all of which promise the arrival of a large party to occupy the fine estate, only five figures appear. Yet, through their elegant presence, they bring colour to the otherwise dull and sleepy town. Soon, the arrival of a militia regiment for the winter makes the hearts of all the young ladies beat faster. Alas, around the same time, Mr Bennet’s health rapidly declines, casting dark clouds over Longbourn, which, in the event of his death, ...

Amongst her family and friends, Miss Elizabeth Bennet is known not just as a great walker and a great reader but also as a talented artist; but drawing is an activity in which she has rarely indulged in recent years. However, when her heart is filled with a hopeless, ardent love for the man she once rejected, there is little else she can do to palliate her secret grief — except draw the portrait of the man she once deemed the last in the world she could marry. In the autumn of 1812, Mr Bingley returns to Netherfield, proposes to Miss Jane Bennet, and within six weeks, they are happily ...

Great read
In this book Darcy gets support by his cousin the Vicomte Philip. They buy Netherfield and starts a new project together. I liked this Darcy very much. He dealt with both Wickham and Bingley. Great read. Great Jaff.
