Darcy’s Love Match

A Duty and Desire Pride and Prejudice Variation

By: Emma Regent

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

He came to Hertfordshire to delay his duty. Instead, he found his destiny among the wildflowers.

He promised his aunt he would consider marrying her daughter. Then he met a woman picking wildflowers in the woods.
In the spring of 1812, Fitzwilliam Darcy has all but promised Lady Catherine he will propose to Anne de Bourg. To postpone the inevitable, he accepts Bingley's invitation to his new estate in Hertfordshire, where duty, at least, can wait.

But one morning in the forest, duty becomes complicated.

A spirited stranger gathering wildflowers challenges his assumptions with sharp wit and fearless honesty. Their arguments become encounters. Encounters become stolen moments. And stolen moments become something Darcy cannot name—but cannot forget.

Elizabeth Bennet knows what sort of man he is: proud, reserved, and not the sort to lose his heart.
She should walk away. Instead, she keeps meeting him at dawn, where the world narrows to wildflowers and words that shouldn't be spoken.

But when fortune and scandal collide at Bingley's estate, Darcy faces an impossible choice: honour the path laid out for him, or risk everything—his family's approval, and his ordered life—for a love he never expected and can't forget.

Can a man who has always chosen duty find the courage to choose his heart? Or will the woman in the wildflowers remain a dream he leaves behind?
A sweet Pride and Prejudice variation where love blooms wild—and changes everything.

Elizabeth was a Jerk

I really disliked Elizabeth I this story. Couldn’t get past it. Especially how she acted at the end. So selfish
