Publisher's Synopsis
When Fitzwilliam Darcy married Elizabeth Bennet, one person was forgotten in the joy of their wedding. Young Anne de Bourgh, informally affianced to her cousin from birth, must face a future with the man her domineering mother has chosen as a suitable replacement. But when Anne meets her future bridegroom, she finds the courage to defy Lady Catherine's iron will. In her headlong flight, Anne finds more than freedom. She encounters a love forbidden by Regency society and must choose between social acceptance and her newly awakened heart.
