About this ebook

A sexy, compelling Pride & Prejudice " what if"—perfect for fans of Death Comes to Pemberley.

The truth always has consequences......

Mr. Darcy has a dilemma. Should he tell the truth about his old nemesis George Wickham in order to protect the good citizens of Meryton from Wickham's lies and deceits? Doing so will force Darcy to reveal family secrets that he'd prefer never come to light. The alternative is keeping the man's criminal nature to himself and hoping he leaves the area before doing significant harm.

But as Wickham's attentions to Elizabeth increase, Darcy knows if he's to win the one woman he's set his heart on, he's going to have to make one of the most difficult decisions of his life. And what he ultimately does sets in motion a shocking train of events neither he nor Elizabeth could possibly have predicted.

Ratings and reviews

I loved this book. The chemistry between ODC was sizzling and for the most part this book was unputdownable for me. The 1 star missing is because the story tends to drag towards the latter part. It seems the author wanted all the villainous characters to sort themselves out before the book ended which is not necessary and that too by observing the profound love of Darcy and Elizabeth (slight roll of the eyes). The couple is seriously all over the place. But still I would say money well spent.

enjoyed very much.
