In the first volume of this three-book retelling of the classic novel, Mr. Darcy’s heart is broken when Elizabeth Bennet rejects his offer of marriage.
Fitzwilliam Darcy returns to London a devastated and humbled man following his rejection by Elizabeth Bennet. The lady, meanwhile, is battling the unprecedented feelings stirred by having endured an innocent but intimate encounter with the gentleman in the aftermath of his proposal.
Soon on her way to Town herself for an unanticipated stay, Elizabeth is comforted by the presence of an old family friend, one Nicholas Harington—the son of a wealthy family whose position in society rivals that of the Darcys of Pemberley.
Harington soon emerges as a potential suitor for Elizabeth’s hand, a union that is viewed as a fair prospect by all—except, perhaps, Darcy himself . . .
Inspired by Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, A Fair Prospect is an introspective, character-driven re-imagining of the literary classic.
(Please note: this is one story told across three volumes and there is, therefore, no conclusion to the main storyline in this volume.)
