With Mr. Darcy and his sister at Netherfield, Lizzy soon realizes Georgiana is suspicious of her motives and doesn’t trust her. She has to win over her future sister-in-law if there is to be peace at Pemberley.
Further complications arrive with Mr. Bingley’s return to Netherfield. He brings Lady de Bourgh and her daughter, Anne, in time for the ball meant to announce Lizzy and Darcy’s engagement. His aunt is clearly determined to stop that from happening.
Lizzy’s heart is softening toward Mr. Darcy, but she still questions whether it’s possible to fall in love within a month’s time.
This is part two of a three-part serial. The other parts will be released quickly. While Abbey normally writes steamier JAFF, this story is strictly SWEET.
