The proud man from Derbyshire—Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.  \nHaving missed the chance to become better acquainted with the beguiling young lady while in Hertfordshire, Darcy cannot help but be fascinated upon meeting Elizabeth again.  \nWill past grievances, perceived misdeeds, and meddling relations conspire against them, or might there be a path to happily ever after for the two of them after all?  \nA charming slow-burn romance ﬁlled with willful misunderstandings, a determined heroine, and a gentleman bewitched, bothered, and thoroughly besotted.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \n“A man does not recover from such a devotion of the heart to such a woman! He ought not; he does not.”  \nJane Austen  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCHAPTER 1  \nINDIFFERENT ACQUAINTANCES AT BEST  \nKENT, ENGLAND — EARLY SPRING , 1 8 1 2  \nThEitvoicezabeth! was nearly tempted to turn on her heels and retrace  \nher steps.“Of all the places in the world, what are the odds of encountering him here in Kent?” she whispered.  \n“She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me.”  \nEven now the words struck her as forcibly as the ﬁrst time she had heard them. Indeed, the ﬁrst time she had ever heard him speak. It was during the Meryton assembly last year.  \nAlready ﬂushed from having rushed down the stairs, she halted completely and leaned against the wall to gather her thoughts. Mr. Darcy at Rosings Park in Kent. Lady Catherine de Bourgh had spoken of imminent guests. Her nephews, but she had said little else.  \nMr. Darcy is Lady Catherine’s nephew! The haughty gentleman who supposed himself above his company wherever he went and now he is here.  \nShe threw a quick glance at her reﬂection in the mirror across the hall and could not help recalling the way he always looked at her whenever they were in company in Hertfordshire—as though he was looking merely to ﬁnd fault.  \nPart of the reason she was eager to be away from Hertfordshire within weeks of his arrival, along with his friends from the north, was the chance to escape his presence. The man was insufferable—as were his lofty cohorts.  \nThe other had to do with her own mother, who perceived Elizabeth as a hindrance rather than an inducement for the eldest Bennet daughter’s budding romance with Mr. Darcy’s friend, Mr. Charles Bingley.  \nMr. Bingley had let the estate neighboring that of her father. His preference for the eldest sister, Miss Jane Bennet, was evident to anyone who would see, and Elizabeth’s mother, Mrs. Francine Bennet, was sure he would make Jane an offer of marriage. There must have been a reason he had not done so after spending copious time in her company, and to Mrs. Bennet’s way of thinking, the reason was the antagonism that ﬂowed both ways between Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth.  \nA woman of mean understanding, little information, an","cbCailM7NluTlrVg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailM7NluTlrVg","pdf",2182564,9,126,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Chapter 1: Indifferent Acquaintances at Best\n## Chapter 2: More Than His Wont to Do\n## Chapter 3: The Cause of Her Distress\n## Chapter 4: Whatever the Cost\n## Chapter 5: All the Old Resentments\n## Chapter 6: Such a Scheme\n## Chapter 7: Concise Deliberation\n## Chapter 8: No Rational Explanation\n## Chapter 9: So Easily Disturbed\n## Chapter 10: The Protest Propriety Dictated\n## Chapter 11: An Ever-Fixed Mark\n## Chapter 12: The Greatest of Blessings\n## Chapter 13: Awaiting His Decision\n## Chapter 14: Only to Wait\n## Chapter 15: All But Promised\n## Chapter 16: An Untenable Situation\n## Chapter 17: Nothing to Conceal\n## Chapter 18: With So Much Unspoken\n## Chapter 19: No Cause to Repine\n# Epilogue\n# Featured Stories\n# P.
