About this book
Summary
When Mr. Darcy calls Elizabeth Bennet "tolerable" at the Meryton assembly, he doesn’t expect her to overhear, or to verbally eviscerate him in front of the entire room. But their fiery exchange sparks an unexpected alliance when Darcy’s best friend, Mr. Bingley, falls for Elizabeth’s gentle sister, Jane. Determined to protect Jane’s happiness from the scheming Miss Bingley, Darcy and Elizabeth form a secret partnership, exchanging sharp letters, devising clever strategies, and discovering that first impressions aren’t always correct. As snowflakes fall and holiday cheer fills the air, Darcy finds himself unexpectedly enchanted by Elizabeth’s wit, loyalty, and refusal to bow to society’s expectations. But when Bingley is whisked away to London by his manipulative sister, their fragile alliance is tested. Can Darcy redeem his pride, prove his honour, and win Elizabeth’s heart before Christmas? Or will misunderstandings, meddling families, and a very dramatic mother ruin everything?Book information
