Oldest daughter, Elizabeth Bennet is content being a help-mate to her four younger sisters and her young brother. While she is affronted by being insulted by a new visitor, she attempts to carry on with the rhythms of her life. But it seems he had a hand in pulling her sister’s admirer, Charles Bingley, from Jane’s side. Elizabeth has reasons not to forgive.
Mr. Darcy is a superior gentleman, clever, and bored at having been dragged to a dusty corner of Hertfordshire by his friend Bingley. His only solace is to seek little conundrums to solve among the neighbors to enliven his mind. But then he finds Elizabeth’s eyes a distraction from these little mysteries.
Circumstances split them apart, but then they find themselves in Scarborough because horrible news forces both of their family parties to that city to seek refuge. But their families are thrown together because Elizabeth’s youngest sister, Lydia, and Darcy’s sister Georgiana form an instant friendship.
Darcy has not been able to rid himself of his growing love for Elizabeth, but she has never discovered a reason to like him. A disastrous proposal on his part and a rejection from her send them both back to their own counties. But their lives have become entwined, and despite their wishing never to see the other again, fate has different plans, including a very frosty climax on the ice which forms on the Thames in the winter of 1814.
