Compelling Consequences: A Tale Fashioned from Pride and Prejudice

Elizabeth Bennet, Pride and Prejudice's irrepressible heroine, is long celebrated for her prowess in a battle of wits, in particular with the dashing Fitzwilliam Darcy. Compelling Consequences: A Tale Fashioned from Pride and Prejudice takes readers through the heartbreak, adventure, loss, and recovery that are companion to these famed lovers, while adding an extra dash of spice and adventure. The wealthy, convivial bachelor Charles Bingley enjoys the company of his pedigreed single friend Fitzwilliam Darcy as he considers the purchase of an estate in Hertfordshire. He also gives shelter to the lovely Bennet sisters, Elizabeth and Jane. Included in the mix is Caroline, Charles's meddling sister who will stop at nothing to hijack Darcy's attentions. While Elizabeth and Darcy experience an immediate attraction, tension soon mounts over his haughty, high-minded attitudes. Even amid the conflict, Elizabeth and Darcy put their differences aside, and enter into a courtship. Fate soon separates them due to two serious events; yet Darcy will allow no peril to keep him from his heroic rescue of Elizabeth. An enthralling story with suprising twists, and a few choice snags, unfolds as Darcy and Elizabeth once again are brought together passionately by fate. Just as their perils end, the lovers are troubled by the very character flaws plaguing them from early days. Again destiny intervenes, and Elizabeth is helped in overcoming Darcy's snobbery. Cold shoulders, trials, and family pratfalls aside, throughout the novel, the two enjoy many lighthearted moments, and steamy nights that transcend their trademark Pride and Prejudice, and make for a red-blooded rollicking romance.
