She never imagined that civility could feel like courtship.
When Mr. Collins proposes to Charlotte Lucas, the expected outcome never comes. Charlotte declines. Mr. Collins retreats to Kent—and with him, the threat of Longbourn's entail disappears. For the Bennet family, a quiet future begins to unfold.
Meanwhile, Jane Bennet, her heart wounded by Mr. Bingley’s departure, makes a fateful choice: she does not follow him to town. Instead, she meets another man, one who sees her worth—and marries him.
Months later, Elizabeth Bennet journeys to Derbyshire with her aunt and uncle, unburdened by past resentments. When she unexpectedly encounters Mr. Darcy, their interactions are marked not by confrontation, but by growing curiosity—and something deeper. As Elizabeth navigates Miss Bingley's cold disdain, Georgiana Darcy's gentle friendship, and Mr. Darcy's increasingly open regard, she finds herself wondering: what lies beneath polite civility?
In this graceful variation of Pride and Prejudice, small choices ripple outward, changing everything. More Than Mere Civility is a tale of quieter roads, deeper understanding, and the love that grows when pride has faded and time has softened old wounds.
Genre: Historical Romance
