Fitzwilliam Darcy, Exile

Name: Fitzwilliam Darcy, Exile
Author: Jennifer Joy

88 pages

He crossed continents to escape a marriage he never agreed to. Now he’s living under her roof—and losing his heart to the very woman he was ordered to wed.

Ten years ago, Fitzwilliam Darcy fled England rather than force a stranger into an arranged marriage. He built a new life, a new fortune, and a new name.
Then a summons calls him home, where he discovers the betrothal was never broken. The girl his father chose is a woman now—still bound to a man she has never met.

Elizabeth Bennet has spent years managing her family’s thriving estate, determined to prove she can choose her own future, and choose it wisely. But a single forged signature has put everything at risk, and the betrothal she has always resented may be all that stands between her family and ruin.

When a worldly stranger offers his help—a humble secretary with no title, no fortune, and no expectations—Elizabeth never dreams she is welcoming in the very man she was bound to marry.
And Darcy never planned to fall—for her sharp wit, her fierce loyalty, and the quiet strength she believes no one sees. He could give her Pemberley. He could give her security. Instead, all he wants is the one thing his name and fortune cannot buy: for her to choose him—the man, not the master.

But the secretary she trusts and the heir she resents are one and the same, and every day he stays, the truth grows more impossible to tell.
Fitzwilliam Darcy, Exile is a sweet, clean, slow-burn Pride & Prejudice variation of hidden identity and second chances—wholesome and appropriate for all ages.

★ An arranged marriage neither of them wanted
