Saving Elizabeth From the Rogue Duke: A Pride and Prejudice Regency Variation (Love Triangle at Longbourn #1)

“To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves.”
― Federico García Lorca, Blood Wedding and Yerma.

“The way he looked at you. I got it then. He loved you, and it was killing him. He won't get over you, Clary, he can't.”
― Cassandra Clare, City of Glass.

Her pride stung by Darcy’s insulting marriage proposal, all Elizabeth Bennet wants is to get as far away as she possibly can from Lady Catherine and her arrogant nephew. All she wants is to find a man she can respect and love.

When her overturned carriage slides toward certain doom, Elizabeth meets the man of her dreams. The Duke is attentive, courteous and mannerly—everything Mr. Darcy is not.

When the Duke follows her to Longbourn, Elizabeth decides to accept his proposal. If only Darcy’s face didn’t haunt her dreams.

Darcy despairs of ever making Elizabeth his bride. One after one, their encounters convince him that his pursuit is in vain. Aware of the Duke’s secret, however, Darcy knows he must not let the woman he loves ruin her life and marry a man he knows to be far worse than Wickham.  Unfortunately, all his efforts to protect Elizabeth just seem to drive her closer and closer to the Duke.

How can Darcy convince her of his regard after his ungentlemanly proposal? How can he protect her from her own naiveté before it’s too late?

This delightful Regency romance reimagines Jane Austen’s classic Pride and Prejudice, giving readers another chance to spend time with the Bennet family, Bingley and Caroline, Georgiana, and, of course, Elizabeth and Darcy.
