Sir, scorn me if you must, but let it be done for reasons that are just and true. The idea of you moving through the world with disdain for me based on false notions is too much to bear. Once I have given you all the reasons for my deceptions, if you still choose to hold me in contempt, it will be done honestly. Elizabeth Bennet has a secret. The finances of Longbourn are more dire than is generally known, and she has been forced by necessity to help keep food on the table of her family home. Her secret is safe. Until the night, the handsome face and kind attentions of Fitzwilliam Darcy lay claim to her affections. Fitzwilliam Darcy is in dangerously low spirits. He cannot forgive himself for his mistakes in judgment that almost caused his young sister to marry George Wickham. This visit to Hertfordshire was supposed to cheer him. But nothing works until that odd night in the library… Take His Likeness is a Pride and Prejudice variation with a nod towards Jane Eyre. It has a touch of magical realism, Elizabeth in disguise, Elizabeth falls first, and a happily ever after for Elizabeth and Darcy
