ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Mr. Darcy likes to be in control? After a revealing midnight meeting in Netherfield?s library, Lizzy can?t keep her thoughts from Mr. Darcy. When her mother lies to her about Mr. Bennet?s impending death to force her to marry Cousin Collins, she acts in hasty desperation and compromises Mr. Darcy with a kiss. He won?t hear of her refusing his grudging proposal, both because he wants to preserve his honor and Georgiana?s standing, and because he suspects Lizzy has certain tastes that will well-suit his own proclivities. That doesn?t keep him from being angry that she viewed him only as a choice moderately preferable to Mr. Collins, and the resentment seems impossible to overcome. ÿ With his sister determined to dislike Lizzy and make her suffer for forcing him into marriage, and Fitzwilliam himself seemingly unable to forgive her, any attempt to be happy seems doomed. They entered marriage as adversaries, but can the passion growing between them help them find a new accord, or will Lizzy be forced to continue to for pay compromising Mr. Darcy? While Abbey sometimes writes sweet JAFF, this is strictly SENSUAL. It has mild scenes of a dominant nature.

Pages : 19155
Book Description
180 Masterpieces of World Literature (Vol.1) is an unparalleled collection that stands as a testament to the enduring power of storytelling across ages and cultures. This anthology brings together a stunning array of voices, ranging from the tragic to the comedic, the factual to the fantastical, and the philosophical to the romantic.

The contributing authors and editors, a veritable who's who of literary giants, bring a wealth of backgrounds, cultures, and insights to this anthology. Their works collectively chart the evolutions and revolutions of literary movements, from the Romanticism of Keats to the Realism of Chekhov, and from the Existentialism of Dostoevsky to the Modernism of Joyce. This anthology not only encapsulates the individual genius of authors like Shakespeare and Austen but also illuminates the interconnectedness of literature across time and borders, revealing shared themes of human struggle, love, and identity. The collection is a testament to the transnational and transhistorical dialogues that great literature invokes, making it an essential addition to the libraries of readers who wish to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of global literary traditions. It offers a unique vantage point to explore the myriad ways in which the world has been interpreted and reinterpreted by some of its greatest minds.
