It was the favorite wish of his mother..." -Pride and Prejudice, Jane AustenFitzwilliam Darcy was raised to never stray from the path set before him: ensure the continued prosperity of his estate, Pemberley, protect and educate his sister to become an accomplished woman, and marry the woman his mother chose for him-his cousin Anne de Bourgh.

However, his destiny begins to unravel when he glimpses a pair of fine eyes on a quiet, country road. Elizabeth Bennet is the second daughter of a respectable though insignificant gentleman.

How will Darcy and Elizabeth fulfill their true destiny under such circumstances? Shall honor, decorum, prudence-nay, a signed letter from the grave-forbid it?"A Lie Universally Hidden" is a Regency Romance suitable for most audiences, teen and up.
