I do not see what right Mr Darcy had to decide on the propriety of his friend’s inclination, or why, upon his own judgement alone, he was to determine and direct in what manner that friend was to be happy
When Fitzwilliam Darcy hides Jane Bennet's presence in London from his friend Bingley, he assures himself it was done for the best. That he was forced to collude with the scheming Miss Bingley and betray his own principles to do it is immaterial—Bingley cannot be trusted to behave rationally where Miss Bennet is concerned.But guilt proves a persistent companion, especially when Darcy cannot forget Jane's spirited sister Elizabeth, whose fine eyes and clever wit haunt him still. A chance encounter at the theatre forces him to confront the hypocrisy of his interference and consider making amends—but will Elizabeth ever forgive him for the pain he's caused her beloved sister?
As the consequences of his meddling unfold, Darcy must face an uncomfortable truth: he had no right to decide the propriety of his friend's inclination or determine how Bingley should find happiness. And as his own feelings for Elizabeth grow impossible to deny, he begins to question everything—his judgment, his pride, and the very foundations upon which he's built his understanding of love, duty, and honor.
Can a man who orchestrated another's heartbreak find redemption? Or will Darcy's arrogance cost him the only woman who could truly make him happy?
