The basis of the story has merit. Elizabeth and Darcy being brought back together, through the love between his son and her daughter. Unfortunately, as a novella, there is insufficient time to allow slow character development.  As such we have Darcy kissing Elizabeth, on her own doorstep within minutes of meeting her again after 18 years! Whilst the denouement is pleasing, the story feels ‘choppy’ and rushed. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Amazon review   Goodreads review

Frustrated that George Wickham is easily distracted by an heiress, Lydia Bennet convinces him that her meagre £1000 dowry is actually £10,000.  George responds by arranging a midnight assignation, at the Netherfield maskerade ball, intending compromise and profitable marriage.  When his note to Lydia is mistakenly given to Elizabeth Bennet, she decides to confront Wickham. Fitzwilliam Darcy is infatuated with Elizabeth but views her as totally unsuitable to be his wife. When Darcy learns of the assignation, he hides in the library to save Elizabeth from making a huge mistake with Wickham. But who is going to save Elizabeth and Darcy from each other? Very little story, no real romance and rather average sex. Good to see Wickham get his comeuppance. This is a short story, only 44 pages long and is rather overpriced at £3.30.  If you have Kindle Unlimited, it is worth a look for a quick read.
