A Man of Good Fortune: A Sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice by Ali Scott. ★★★★★
His cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam is a familiar face but Darcy does not know Elizabeth, the woman he is told is his wife.
This is Darcy at his irascible best (worst?). He has several injuries, leading to considerable pain. In addition to amnesia, he really struggles to read or write.
Darcy is understandably paranoid, being so vulnerable to Elizabeth, particularly when she and Colonel Fitzwilliam are meeting privately but not sharing the reason with Darcy.
Elizabeth is loving and endlessly patient with Darcy. He becomes enthralled with Elizabeth and gradually falls in love with her (again!)
Darcy’s recovery takes place against the backdrop of an ongoing mystery. What is Elizabeth hiding, who is involved and what does his mother’s sapphire brooch have to do with it?
This book is wonderful. Steadfast devotion, angst and mystery. I couldn’t put it down.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
