Their Moment of Happiness by Lucy Marin ★★★★★

In this variation, Fitzwilliam Darcy's second proposal is interrupted, seconds before Elizabeth Bennet can answer. 

Darcy receives an urgent summons from his family, who have all arrived at Netherfield. 

Dreading a death or other disaster, Darcy is blindsided by an ultimatum from Lady Catherine de Bourg. She has roused her brother, the Earl of Matlock and his countess to back her demands. 

Her simple request? Darcy must marry his cousin Anne, or Lady Catherine will ruin Darcy, Elizabeth and the whole Bennet family.

An epic battle of wills ensues. Can Darcy prevail? Is Elizabeth prepared to face the consequences of loving Fitzwilliam Darcy?

Really good novella.
