Of A Sunday Evening
(2020)(A book in the Happily Ever After with Mr Darcy series)
A Novella by Amy D'Orazio
"I declare I do not know a more awful object than Darcy, on particular occasions, and in particular places; at his own house especially, and of a Sunday evening, when he has nothing to do."-- Charles Bingley, Pride & Prejudice, Chapter 10
FITZWILLIAM DARCY, on a hot summer Sunday afternoon in his house, and still feeling the sting of Elizabeth Bennet's rejection, is surely feeling like an awful object. Driven from his house, eager to escape the tedium and his own thoughts, he encounters Miss Lydia Bennet on the mean streets of London. An elopement is in progress but Darcy soon finds himself called upon to stop it.
IN LAMBTON, Elizabeth Bennet is horrified to learn of her sister's escapade, and even more dismayed to learn that somehow, some way Mr Darcy has become involved in it all. Her feelings having already softened towards him, she finds herself returning to London to find a changed man has been her family's hero.
ONE SUNDAY EVENING soon gives way to another, and sisters must conspire to give the pair the nudge they need to speak to one another. Sunday evenings prove to be not so disagreeable after all!
This Pride & Prejudice short story is a sweet, romantic what-if with an earlier reconciliation of Jane Austen's most famous lovers.
Genre: Historical Romance
