Darcy’s Dowry Wager

A Pride and Prejudice Variation Romance

By: Rachelle Ayala

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Darcy’s father gambled away Georgiana’s dowry. Mr. Bennet won it. Now Darcy must win a Bennet daughter’s heart—or lose everything.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is desperate. His late father—grief-stricken after the death of his mother—gambled away Georgiana’s entire £30,000 dowry to the wily Mr. Bennet. The price of its return? Win the heart of one of Bennet’s five daughters, or the money stays lost forever.

When Darcy begins courting all five Bennet sisters with perfect equality, the sisters make a pact—united resistance. None of them will be manipulated into loving a man who’s playing games with their futures.

Elizabeth Bennet vows to be the last one he’d choose.

Then she watches him make Jane laugh. Sees him listen intently to Mary’s opinions. Catches his hand linger at Kitty’s elbow as he helps her from a carriage. Each moment of his careful, democratic charm feels like a small death.

She tells herself it doesn’t matter. The pact protects them all.

But when his eyes find hers across a crowded ballroom and hold just a fraction too long—when his voice drops low during their dance as though they’re the only two people in the room—Elizabeth feels something dangerous bloom in her chest.

Jealousy. Sharp and shameful and impossible to ignore.

She wants him to stop being fair. Wants him to forget strategy and honor and her sisters’ feelings. Wants him to choose her and only her, even though wanting that makes her a traitor to everything she vowed.

She’s supposed to want him to fail.

Instead, she’s terrified he might succeed—with someone else.

Can a man court for money and fall in love by accident? And can Elizabeth trust her heart when choosing him means betraying everyone she loves?
