Presents the events of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" from the viewpoint of Mr. Darcy, as his diary entries show his changing perceptions of himself and others, and his growing feelings for Elizabeth Bennett.

Every woman wants to be Elizabeth Bennet Darcy-beautiful, gracious, universally admired, strong, daring and outspoken-a thoroughly modern woman in crinolines. And every woman will fall madly in love with Mr. Darcy-tall, dark and handsome, a nobleman and a heartthrob whose virility is matched only by his utter devotion to his wife. Their passion is consuming and idyllic-essentially, they can't keep their hands off each other-through a sweeping tale...

The author presents an improvisation on Jane Austin's classic novel "Pride and Prejudice" through the eyes of Fitzwilliam Darcy as he visits Netherfield with his good friend Charles Bingley and his sisters.

Follows Darcy's journey of self-discovery after Elizabeth Bennet's rejection of his marriage proposal, a period during which he hopes to renew his suit and finds his resolve tested by the machinations of Wickham.

Mr. Darcy's intimate diary reveals his entanglements with women, his dangerous friendship with Lord Byron, his daily life in Georgian London, his mercurial mood swings calmed only by fisticuffs at Jackson's--and, most importantly, his vain struggle to conquer his longing for Elizabeth Bennet.

Following the birth of their first child, Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy are looking forward to enjoying life at Pemberley, but family commitments draw them away to Mansfield Park. While there, the Darcys get involved with marriage arrangements, star-crossed lovers, deceit, mistaken identity, and even murder.

While on holiday Fitzwilliam and Elizabeth Darcy investigate the murder of a woman whose body was found at the base of Lyme's famous sea wall as well as the prospect that Fitzwilliam's naval-lieutenant cousin may have also been murdered.

"Dialogue with Darcy tells the tale of the first years of the marriage between Darcy and Elizabeth, and his continuing progress towards improved self-knowledge and lasting happiness. The newly wed couple learn to love each other's faults as well as their virtues, and to cope with the complications introduced by their various family members." -- adapted from the cover.

Pemberley newlyweds Mr. and Mrs. Darcy identify a seemingly ideal suitor for Elizabeth's younger sister, a situation that turns bizarre when the young man's personality undergoes a radical change.

This witty sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice follows the fate of Georgiana Darcy, Mr. Darcy's younger sister, who must choose between two suitors, a well-placed navy captain and a brash young architect. Masterfully adapted to Austen's original nineteenth-century style, Presumption brings back to life the book's most memorable characters, the Bennets, Darcys, Collins, and de Bourghs.
