Elizabeth Bennet and the Scottish Laird
A marriage of necessity. A second chance. And a Scottish laird who may not be what he seems.
Mr Bennet’s sudden death leaves Longbourn to a distant Scottish relation — and the Bennet women facing the loss of their home. But Malcolm MacKinnon arrives not as the cold usurper Elizabeth expected. He is charming, clever, devoted to his young daughter, and his proposal offers her family security and the right to remain at Longbourn.
All it requires is Elizabeth herself.
She has always prided herself on her good sense. It is exceedingly inconvenient that good sense should require her to marry one man just as her heart begins to incline toward another.
For Mr Darcy has returned to Hertfordshire, and the proud gentleman she refused at Hunsford has changed. His pride has softened; his regard for her has not. With every meeting she is more drawn to him — and less certain she can marry another.
Darcy distrusts Malcolm. Small inconsistencies in the laird’s history lead him to a past buried in the Scottish Highlands. And as Malcolm hastens the wedding, his easy charm begins to show a more possessive edge.
Breaking her promise may leave the Bennets without a home. Keeping it may bind her to a man she no longer believes she knows — and cost her the gentleman she is coming to love.
A clean, sweet Pride and Prejudice variation with slow-burn romance, suspense, and a guaranteed happy ending.
