Fitzwilliam Darcy never meant to fall in love—not here, and not with her.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is relieved to leave Hertfordshire behind. The temptations of a certain spirited miss have grown too strong to ignore, and if he remains at Netherfield, he knows he will propose—and make what he believes to be a most unsuitable match. Yet when his friend Charles Bingley cannot be persuaded to stay away from Jane Bennet, Darcy feels compelled to return to the countryside to prevent what he sees as a potential folly. When the chance for happiness presents itself, he seizes it in the only way he knows how—through quiet devotion, heartfelt gifts, and a love that speaks louder than words.

Elizabeth Bennet is delighted by Mr. Bingley’s return, especially as he resumes his courtship of Jane. But she is far less pleased to see the proud and aloof Mr. Darcy again. To her surprise, the gentleman appears changed—more thoughtful, more kind, and far more agreeable than she remembers. Then, as the Twelve Days of Christmas begin, a mysterious string of lavish and meaningful gifts starts to arrive at Longbourn. Elizabeth is intrigued—and increasingly convinced the sender is the only man who she could ever be prevailed upon to marry.

As each day passes, Mr. Darcy struggles to show the woman he loves that he has changed. For Elizabeth, the mystery deepens, and she finds her heart beginning to soften toward the man she once dismissed. In this heartwarming Regency romance full of mystery, charm, and Christmas magic, true love just might be the greatest gift of all.

Mr. Darcy’s Twelve Days of Christmas is a light-hearted, low-angst Pride and Prejudice variation.
