A Most Excellent Understanding

The first time I rejected a proposal of marriage, my suitor would not take 'no' for an answer, so I have resolved to be more forceful in any future ones. ELIZABETH BENNET IS A LADY of decided opinions-especially about a certain Mr Darcy. When Colonel Fitzwilliam reveals that gentleman as the cause of her sister's romantic woes, Elizabeth does not become angry or distraught. Instead, the news offers some relief, because it allows her to finally understand everything that happened in Hertfordshire the previous autumn. With this new knowledge, she acts to remove herself from the disagreeable company at Rosings. FITZWILLIAM DARCY FINDS HIMSELF thoroughly confused by Elizabeth's abrupt departure on the very day he thought to propose. Surprisingly, his cousin is reluctant to offer enlightenment as Darcy pursues Elizabeth to London, where he encounters a less than forgiving pair of Bennet sisters. Darcy must overcome his own reserve to explain himself, which is not easy as others require their share of conversation-especially as it concerns the Bingleys and any future alliance between Darcy and Elizabeth. IN THIS HARD-FOUGHT BATTLE of wits, can Darcy find the words to prove himself worthy of Elizabeth's good opinion and win her heart, or will she remain firm in her most decided opinion of the master of Pemberley?
