For the Deepest Love Mary Anne Mushatt

"After thinking long and hard, I have come to the conclusion that-although it may not be the kind of love my sister and I once had in mind-marrying Mr Darcy would be marrying for a love of the deepest kind."


RECOVERING FROM THEIR PARENTS' DEATHS, Elizabeth and Jane Bennet have held their family together, leaning on the support of their uncle, Edward Gardiner, to help them survive. Thus, when Mr Gardiner is threatened with scandal and ruin, Elizabeth vows to help him. Hearing of her distress, the scandalous Fitzwilliam Darcy enters her life-offering his aid in exchange for her hand. Accepting his proposal upends her life in unimaginable ways as she learns of the treachery of the peer courting her, the betrayal and violence committed by her childhood friend, and the threat to her country as it faces another war.


AS ELIZABETH AND DARCY FACE the turmoil and trials swirling around them, they risk opening their hearts to unexpected passion. In order to survive challenges from without and fears within, they must summon unknown strengths and forge new bonds to solidify a love of the deepest kind.
