The Gentleman's Impertinent Daughter

by Rose Fairbanks

Series:Impertinent Daughters (1)

Description

When Fitzwilliam Darcy visits Hyde Park with his sister, he expects nothing more than a quiet walk on a fine day. Instead, he meets a young woman who challenges his ideas and pulls his sister out of her melancholy. He soon realizes Elizabeth Bennet is the only woman in the world with whom he could spend the rest of his life.Elizabeth, clever and self-assured, refuses to change for the sake of gaining a husband, a prospect she finds impossible regardless. With wit and independence rather than show more fortune, she is entirely convinced no sensible man would have her, and she cannot respect a fool. Can Darcy prove to be this impossible man? Or is a figure from his past an insurmountable obstacle to a future with The Gentleman's Impertinent Daughter? show less

This was a really fun book by Rose Fairbanks and I enjoyed this twist in how things might have turned out if Elizabeth and Darcy had met away from Meryton and her mother and younger sisters. I also enjoyed the Georgiana in this story and seeing her with the Gardiner's getting along and talking about Derbyshire. I look forward to reading more by this author in the future.

A short story variation of Pride and Prejudice, occurring after Elizabeth has refused Mr. Collins and is visiting the Gardiners in London.
The Darcys are strolling in Hyde Park where they encounter Elizabeth and the Gardiners, and Georgiana quickly gets to talk to them. They each make a good impression on each other but they have yet to meet each others families.
