Seven years ago, a young gentleman broke Jane Bennet’s heart. Elizabeth Bennet has never forgiven him.
At fifteen, Jane Bennet fell for a handsome gentleman who wooed her with poetry, professed his affection, and then vanished without a word. Though Jane has long since put the disappointment behind her, Elizabeth has not. She has spent seven years despising the mysterious man she calls the Poetical Villain.
When the charming Mr. Bingley arrives in Hertfordshire, Elizabeth is delighted to see her sister finally find a gentleman worthy of her affection. And when Bingley’s wealthy friend, Mr. Darcy, appears, Elizabeth is surprised to discover a man whose wit and attentions are becoming increasingly difficult to resist.
But Elizabeth has spent so long guarding her sister’s heart that she has scarcely considered the dangers to her own. As her feelings for Mr. Darcy deepen, an unexpected connection to the past threatens to turn everything she believes upside down.
Can Elizabeth learn to let go of old grievances and trust her heart, or will a vow made seven years ago stand in the way of her own happiness?
One Good Sonnet is a lighthearted, low-angst Pride and Prejudice variation Novella filled with second chances, mistaken assumptions, Christmas romance, and a most inconvenient vow.
This book grew from imagination, inspiration, and countless hours of human-written creative work.
