The Kiss at Lucas Lodge: A Pride & Prejudice Variation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780473575519)

As he does in canon, Fitzwilliam Darcy slights Elizabeth Bennet at the assembly in Meryton. The militia arrive in Meryton earlier than in Miss Austin's work with the seducer Wickham already a member of the unit. Jane Bennet is invited to Netherfield and does get ill, but not as severely ill as in canon.

Wickham spins his pack of lies and after being slighted by the man she now detests; Elizabeth believes them without question. That is the point that this story leaves canon behind. The Wickham in this tale is even more despicable than he is in canon.

What happens when Elizabeth refuses to dance with Darcy at Lucas Lodge, as she cannot abide to be around the proud man, he kisses her? What do her family and the neighbours say? How do Miss Bingley, Lady Catherine, and the Matlocks react? Does Wickham try and interfere? How does Elizabeth react, as she disdains the man greatly?
Will Darcy ever be able to redeem himself in Elizabeth's eyes?
