When Mr. Collins arrives at Longbourn before the Meryton Assembly, his intentions towards Elizabeth Bennet are quite clear, and she wants nothing to do with marrying that odious man. Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy is odious, too, of course. He's a haughty man who has insulted her pride, but he is fending off his own unwanted romantic attentions in the form of a very determined Miss Caroline Bingley. So, when he proposes a mutually beneficial arrangement between himself and Elizabeth--pretending to be engaged in order to chase off their disagreeable prospective partners--she agrees. As part of the arrangement, Mr. Darcy claims he'll help her find a real match and introduce her to a man who might truly align himself with someone of her status. When a man named Wickham arrives, claiming to be Mr. Darcy's dear boyhood friend, she finds him positively perfect, exactly the sort of man she would want to marry. But, of course, Mr. Wickham isn't at all what he seems. Dear reader, though this book has a number of light and amusing moments, the book also contains quite a bit of scandalous angst, disturbing revelations about characters' pasts, and Mr. Wickham being, well, himself. Also, yes, after our dear couple marries, there are on-page lovemaking scenes of the detailed variety. Please be forewarned before reading.
