Publisher's Synopsis
Despite being a cripple with a blighted life, Fitzwilliam Darcy was a fine looking man...
A year ago Mr. Darcy had suffered from an illness which robbed him of the use of his legs. However he is determined to never act or think like a maudlin fool who is convinced that his life is over and ruined just because part of it has become more difficult. Further recovery was not expected by his doctors, so the time had come to resume his ordinary life.
Darcy sent Georgiana off for her long delayed trip to Ramsgate with her companion Mrs. Younge, and he went to visit his friend Bingley at his newly rented estate of Netherfield.
Elizabeth could not look away from Mr. Darcy when he entered the room at the Meryton assembly. A very handsome and determined man. She could not decide what she thought about him, not even after she overheard him insulting her.
When Mr. Darcy apologises to Elizabeth, a friendship will flourish between them that will take them through difficulties, heartbreak and eventually to love.
