Charles Bingley takes residence of Netherfield Park for one reason: to give his friend Darcy a peaceful sanctuary after a brutal year. After Wickham’s scheme was revealed, Georgiana’s attempted suicide left her crippled and catatonic. Darcy, blaming himself, fell into self-destructive despair that even his closest friend could not break through.
It is only when Darcy is alone in the countryside near Meryton that he finds a reason to hope: a beautiful young woman, walking alone, whom he deliriously thinks is an angel.
This is a Pride and Prejudice variation with angst, desperate schemes, awkward flirting, romance and a happy ending.
This story contains sexual scenes and depicts depression, alcohol abuse and self-harm. It is intended for mature readers.
