A Compromised Compromise: An Elizabeth and Darcy Story

Elizabeth and Darcy need to marry each other, but they can pretend they don’t want to…

During the Netherfield Ball, Elizabeth Bennet tripped and Fitzwilliam Darcy caught her in his strong, manly arms, and as he set her back on her feet, they looked deep into each other’s eyes. Naturally they kissed.

Unfortunately, they were seen kissing before they returned to their senses. Mr. Darcy needed to marry Elizabeth to protect her reputation and his own. The only good thing was that Mrs. Bennet was a very lax chaperone who gave them ample time to continue kissing. Alas the course of a true compromise never did run smooth.

Darcy’s letter about his marriage brought Colonel Fitzwilliam to Hertfordshire to save his cousin from the scheming fortune huntress and to chastise Mr. Wickham for his sins. What will happen when Elizabeth realizes she has fallen in love with Mr. Darcy, but he still says he doesn’t want to marry her?
