Shadows Of Rosings Park: Part 2

He can make her his wife. He cannot make her surrender.

Elizabeth Bennet will walk to the altar with a secret that could destroy her closest friend—and a bridegroom who knows exactly what her silence costs.

To the world, Mr. Darcy is a devoted suitor. He brings jewels, arranges settlements, and watches her with an attention other women would envy. Elizabeth knows the terms beneath his tenderness. He reads her letters. He decides her future. And soon, he will share her bed.

She means to give him only what their bargain requires.

But the man who commands her days is dangerously different in the dark. His restraint unsettles her. His gentleness threatens the hatred she has relied upon. And wanting him feels like betraying the woman she was before Kent.

Meanwhile, whispers about Collins’s death are spreading, and Charlotte is slipping further into Colonel Fitzwilliam’s keeping. Elizabeth cannot afford to lose herself. Her friend may need the part of her Darcy has never managed to possess.

She has agreed to be his wife. She has not agreed to stop fighting.
