He fought for her honor with a pistol at dawn. But winning her heart will be his greatest battle yet.
Mr. Darcy stands in a misty clearing, pistol in hand, ready to defend Elizabeth Bennet’s honor. The man opposite him—George Wickham—has spread one too many lies about the woman Darcy cannot forget. But when the duel takes an unexpected turn, leaving Darcy wounded and Elizabeth thrust into his recovery, everything she thought she knew begins to unravel.
Elizabeth has every reason to despise Mr. Darcy. His arrogance, his interference in her sister’s happiness, and now, his recklessness in risking his life for her name. And yet—with every letter exchanged, every glance that lingers too long, every moment she finds herself by his side—she realizes she may have been terribly, devastatingly wrong.
But just as her heart begins to soften, a reminder of the past threatens to tear them apart once more. Will Elizabeth allow pride to rule her heart? Or will she dare to hope for a second chance before it’s too late?
A story of honor, misunderstanding, and love that refuses to be denied—this is Elizabeth and Darcy’s fiercest battle yet.
