The New World Tea Company is a variation of the Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice story of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. This story differs with George Wickham and Darcy having had no contact since the death of Darcy’s father. There was no attempt to elope with Miss Georgiana Darcy the previous summer. As the story begins, George Wickham, in the guise of a tradesman, attends the assembly where Charles Bingley and his family are introduced to Meryton society. Mr Darcy arrived a few days later, and the first person he met was Elizabeth Bennet in the mercantile looking at the ...

He went to war to forget her. He returned with a title... and an order to marry. When Fitzwilliam Darcy disappeared from society after Lydia Bennet’s scandalous elopement, the ton offered many explanations—none of them close to the truth.

Now returned to England, he carries more than secrets: he bears a new title—Earl of Pemberley—bestowed by the Prince Regent himself. But elevation comes at a cost. With rank comes duty. And the ...

What if Darcy never made the infamous slight against Lizzy Bennet at the Meryton Assembly? Thus begins Shy and Handsome... In this variation, Darcy's reticence overrules his ability to voice his terse opinions about the rowdiness at the Meryton Assembly and his disinclination to dance, giving Elizabeth a wholly different impression of the tall, dark, and handsome gentleman stranger. Her first impression of Mr. Darcy is that he's adorably "shy and handsome"—and that she can't resist such a man as that. To Darcy's surprise, he finds he can't resist someone like Elizabeth and her bright ...

He will pay. I’m making his Christmas hell and waving him goodbye with my middle finger as he packs his bags and rolls out. 👋🏼🖕🏼 This roof isn’t big enough for the two of us. Heck, neither is this town. Or this country. Maybe the whole damn planet. 🌍 He’s got an ego to match his size... and a swagger that’s sexy as all hell. Smells like pine soap and new money—crisp.
