Synopsis
What if the Netherfield ball had not been a disaster for Our Dear Couple? We all know how the Netherfield ball goes. We all know what it costs Elizabeth and Darcy. This Pride and Prejudice variation follows that question to its entirely inevitable conclusion—through sharp conversation, stubborn pride, gradual honesty, and the particular pleasure of watching two people who have been spectacularly wrong about each other discover that they do not have to stay that way. All the wit. All the Bennets. Just a little less waiting. This short, sweet retelling is for every reader who ever wished Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy would simply get out of their own way—and wondered what might happen if they did.
