The Engagement at Longbourn (Pride and Prejudice Variation)

The Engagement at Longbourn

When Fitzwilliam Darcy leaves Netherfield for London, he expects only a solitary ride and several uncomfortable hours with his thoughts.

Instead, a frightened horse, a violent fall, and an unexpected rescuer change the course of his life. Elizabeth Bennet never imagined she would find Mr.

Darcy injured and delirious on a lonely country road—nor that, while barely conscious, he would confess feelings she had never suspected and insist upon an answer to a most astonishing question.

What begins as a promise made under extraordinary circumstances soon becomes something far more complicated.

With Darcy forced to recover beneath the Bennets’ roof, Elizabeth is given the opportunity to see the proud gentleman beyond the ballroom, while Darcy discovers there is considerably more to the Bennet family than he once believed.

Between meddling relations, old enemies, unexpected friendships, and an engagement neither of them quite intended, Darcy and Elizabeth must decide whether an accident has merely entangled their lives—or placed them exactly where they were meant to be.
