In just a few days, Elizabeth finds herself floundering in fear, loneliness and despair, facing a terrible future at the hands of heartless mercenaries, while Darcy, injured, is left behind.Determined to save the lady who holds his heart, Darcy embarks on an uncertain journey to rescue Elizabeth. Together with his cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam, he discovers the power of love, friendship and trust, which goes beyond any familial connection.In this romantic, dramatic adventure, involving sea travels, mercenary pirates and bloody fights able to determine life or death, Darcy and Elizabeth come to realise that they must never let hope die. Hope and their mutual love are all they have to keep them alive.Until their last breath.EXTRACTRichard was now very curious about how Darcy had managed to bear the journey from London to Portsmouth in his present condition.Darcy chuckled at his enquiries. "Richard, you know me well enough to guess I could not stay back when so much is at stake, when Elizabeth's life is in such danger." He looked around and all eyes were on him. He became serious again. "They say that love and hate are the two most powerful forces to move a man. I can guarantee you all, I have plenty of both."ABOUT THE AUTHORAs a non-fiction writer and polyglot, I am fascinated by the beauty of writing, and the gift of combining words and sentences to achieve the perfect expression of ideas and critical analysis. But writing fiction also takes one a step further and expresses, at a much deeper level, not only creativity, but feelings and emotions. And that is my intention from now on: to write stories that can arouse people's feelings and dreams. And what could be better than starting it with something I just love?As a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice - my favourite book by far - I have spent the last two years reading not only the original, but also hundreds and hundreds of P&P variations. As a result, while increasing my knowledge of the English language on an academic level, I decided I would like to start writing my own versions. I can only hope you enjoy reading them as much as I have enjoyed writing them.POST SCRIPTUM - 27th Sep 2018Please, allow me to add a small comment about some of the reviews I have received in USA. Indeed, English is not my native language, but contrarily to what was said, I am aware of my limitations and had this story analysed by an editor and copyedited by a registered professional. Unfortunately, as it seems, I was not very happy with my choices.I can just add that I have a deep respect for my readers, and that I have already corrected those mentioned mistakes.
