Inhaltsangabe
In marriage-minded Regency England, one simple word can ruin your life. Compromise! Can bring down a virtuous maiden, like Miss Elizabeth Bennet, and her entire family along with her.
When Elizabeth finds Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy outside Netherfield, alone and at his most vulnerable, she must make a quick decision to bend the rules of propriety to help him or turn her back on someone in need. Her tender heart reaches out to him and his wounded one grabs hold of her well-intentioned support. Discovery changes the course of their lives as Elizabeth is forced to accept a reluctant proposal of marriage from this man whom she has just barely begun to respect. Can Jane Austen's most beloved couple reach a compromise that might turn a tenuous friendship into a loving marriage? Will it survive as desperate, unscrupulous, and foolish people alike set compromising machinations into motion for their own greedy ends?
Follow Elizabeth and Darcy in this novel-length Regency romance as J. Dawn King takes them through a sweet variation of Pride and Prejudice where compromises abound and outcomes will surprise you.

Started out good, but didn’t hold
The story starts out nicely, but after the middle, everyone just seems to be saying „compromise!“. It gets pretty annoying.
The whole Jane thing doesn’t make sense either. Does she love a certain someone or not? In one part it says yes, but then no (and not in the usual love struggle, but because of inconsistance).
The ending seemed sweet, but a few things in it just don’t make sense.
For the Narrator: she seems alright, but some of her voices make my ears hurt.
