A Pride and Prejudice variation
When his aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, insists that Mr. Darcy marry her daughter, he suggests he is secretly engaged. While escaping an unwanted persistent suitor, Elizabeth Bennet claims to have a secret fiancé. But when Darcy and Elizabeth meet in the garden at a London ball, their secrets converge and they decide to embark on a pretend engagement.
Darcy appreciates his false fiancée’s beauty and wit, regretting she does not have the connections and social standing he needs in a wife. However, as their charade progresses and their ‘engagement’ becomes more public, he starts to have feelings for her that he must conceal.
Elizabeth never planned to marry after witnessing her parents’ less-than-successful union. She simply enjoys exploring London in Darcy’s company. He is handsome and a loyal friend, but they come from different worlds. She cannot expect more than friendship from him, even if she secretly wants more.
When circumstances threaten to separate them forever, both Elizabeth and Darcy must confront their true feelings for each other—and discover if their charade of love is actually the truth.
