Lovers' Meeting (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781951033637)

Journeys end in lovers' meetings, every wise man's son doth know- William Shakespeare

IT IS A TRUTH UNIVERSALLY ACKNOWLEDGED that the disastrous first meeting of Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet at the Meryton Assembly provided each with a ready-made set of prejudices to apply to the other. But when a horrific rural accident reveals Darcy to be a man of active, intelligent benevolence, and Elizabeth, in the absence of her appalling family, to be an extraordinary lady of courage and decision-then surely the course of true love will run smoothly.

BUT ALAS, THE LOVERS' MEETING is not the end but a new beginning. For though they have found each other, a seeming multitude of complications-a catastrophic flood, the last wishes of a dying friend, Lydia's misfortunes, a dastardly Member of Parliament, and even their own fears- contrives to come between them and their journey's end.
