No Indignity So Abhorrent by Jann Rowland Pdf

“Assistance is impossible; condolence, insufferable. Let them triumph over us at a distance, and be satisfied.” In a world where a single misstep by a woman is injurious to all her family, the Bennets of Longbourn finds themselves shunned and despised by all their friends when one sister runs away with an officer. Mr. Bennet rouses himself from his beloved books and pursues the lovers to London, but returns empty-handed, his daughter lost forever. When the Bingley party arrives at Netherfield Park, they discover a neighborhood with a salacious scandal and a family ostracized from their midst. Though Miss Bingley revels in the gossip she learns from those with little sense and less discretion, Fitzwilliam Darcy keeps himself aloof, unwilling to join the condemnation without proof of poor behavior. Thus, when Darcy meets Miss Bennet by chance on a secluded path of her father’s estate, he finds her strangely compelling. The compulsion to continue to meet with her is strong, in defiance of the consequences if they should be discovered. Elizabeth Bennet finds herself equally intrigued, so much so that she begins to dream of a life free of scandal, where the Bennets have some hope of redemption. This re-imagination of Jane Austen’s beloved Pride and Prejudice answers the question of what might have happened had Fitzwilliam Darcy arrived in Meryton to find a Bennet family mired in scandal, one that he can do nothing to repair. Though many challenges lay in their path, including fallen sisters, despicable libertines, and a neighborhood determined to denounce the Bennets as depraved, Darcy and Elizabeth are convinced that their future happiness lies together.

Something More Substantial by Jann Rowland Pdf

In Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet meets Fitzwilliam Darcy in Meryton, where Mr. Darcy’s concern for his sister and general reticence leads him to insult her. But what if Mr. Darcy did not meet her there, instead making her acquaintance in other circumstances more favorable to their understanding? When she visits Rosings Park and her friend, Charlotte Collins, Elizabeth does so with no notion that Fitzwilliam Darcy even exists, for Netherfield Park remained empty the previous autumn. As is his custom, Mr. Darcy comes to Rosings in his cousin’s company, and there he meets a young lady unlike any he has ever met. Rosings itself is not a place where he can conduct any sort of campaign to win the fair maiden’s heart, for his aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, is watchful and determined Darcy will marry her daughter. Despite this interference, Darcy eventually leaves Kent, secure in the knowledge that Miss Elizabeth is a woman he would like to come to know better. The question he is unable to answer is when he can meet her again, for their positions in society are oceans apart, and there is little opportunity for chance meetings. But fate has other plans, for not only do they meet again, but they also encounter each other in a place that allows their love to blossom. Only the small matters of his family expectations and her condition in life stand in his way. Yet Darcy is determined to pursue Miss Elizabeth, certain in the knowledge she will make him the happiest of men.

Unintended Consequences by Jann Rowland Pdf

During Fitzwilliam Darcy’s visit to Rosings Park, Lady Catherine de Bourgh suddenly betrays her knowledge of Georgiana Darcy’s misadventure with George Wickham the previous summer, while giving Darcy a devastating demand: marry her daughter, or she will reveal the details to society. Appalled by his aunt’s depravity, Darcy quits Rosings Park at once, returning to London. There, Darcy conceives a desperate gamble; if he was already married, Lady Catherine would have no claim on him. After a welcome visit to her dear friend in Kent, Elizabeth Bennet returns to her home, finding everything curiously altered. Not only has Charles Bingley returned, his attentions to Jane seemingly unabated from the previous year, but her family, who had nothing good to say of Darcy, is now singing his praises. In time, Elizabeth grows suspicious, determined to discover why this profound change has come over the gentleman she previously detested. But Darcy, as he races against time to convince Elizabeth to marry him, worries about the threat of his aunt’s jealousy and spite. For a woman willing to ruin her own niece in her all-consuming desire to have her way will surely have no scruples if he defies her.

As the two become better acquainted, events conspire to keep them apart, for tensions between the two families escalate. Though the two lovers come to see each other as a means of healing between their families, others are unwilling to see past their revulsion. Events threaten to force the lovers apart, and their love becomes forged in the fires of resistance, hardening Elizabeth and Darcy's resolve to do whatever it takes to ensure not only that they are together, but that the hostility between their families is resolved once and for all.
