A moment is all it takes for Elizabeth Bennet's reputation to be shattered with little anyone can do to repair it, except one thing, for her to marry the most disagreeable man in all of England, Mr. Darcy... Elizabeth is quite certain she has put the high-handed Mr. Darcy in his place for good. After his thoughtless proposal - which she considers an insult to her personality in all its presentation - and her rejection of it, she considers all connections with the man over and forgotten. The entire Bingley party has left Hertfordshire, so it should not be too much of a task for life, as she knows it, to return to normal. But suddenly, Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy are thrown into a delicate dilemma when at a ball they are found in a situation that calls for nothing but nuptial ties. However, she vows not to allow any feelings in her heart for this man who is responsible for her sister Jane's failed love...not even on their wedding night when it seems her skin burns upon his touch. While Lizzy struggles with her emotions, her life as the Lady of Pemberley is a far cry from anything that she has envisaged. The estates are vast and there is a lot to learn. Darcy's friends think her unworthy of him. The Bingley women certainly hold no reservations in calling her out for using her wiles on Dear Darcy. Lady Catherine de Bourgh, scorned that her hopes for her daughter to be married to Darcy is shattered, goes to great pains to discredit Elizabeth. Will one of Lady Catherine's schemes excellently disrupt the growing sense of ease and attraction the newly-weds are beginning to feel for each other?
