For the last twelve years, he has worked prodigiously in London’s poverty-ridden East End. Will he ever be secure enough to win the heart of a gentleman’s daughter — his mentor's niece, Miss Elizabeth Bennet? Now she is grown up, Miss Elizabeth Bennet’s heart whispers all sorts of possibilities for the grave, well-mannered, mysterious man. She is lost in admiration of his hard work and bold ideas. It also hasn't escaped her observation that he is exceedingly handsome.

Elizabeth Bennet is determined to follow her heart — and the wrong brother. Appearances can be deceptive, and perhaps the impossible isn’t always forever. Fitzwilliam Darcy has lost his birthright.
