"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman teetering on the verge of thirty must be in want of a husband." Not true for Manhattanite Elizabeth Scott. Instead of planning a walk down the aisle, she's crossing the pond with the only companion she needs—her darling dog, Bliss. Caring for a pack of show dogs in England seems the perfect distraction from the scandal that ruined her teaching career, and her reputation, in New York. What she doesn't count on is an unstoppable attraction to billionaire dog breeder Donovan Darcy. The London tycoon's a little bit arrogant, a whole lot sexy…and the chemistry between them is disarming. When passion is finally unleashed, might Elizabeth hope to take home more than a blue ribbon?

A thirty-nine-year- old divorced mother, she runs her own antique letterpress business, is a lifelong member of the Jane Austen Society, and gushes over everything Regency. But her business is failing, threatening her daughter's future. What's a lady to do? Why, audition for a Jane Austen-inspired TV show set in England, of course.

Pages : 106
Book Description
William Darcy has gone completely mental! Despite Elizabeth Bennet's less than stellar opinion of him, some unknown force possessed him to invite her to Pemberley to wait out lockdown. Just because she'd be closer to her sister Jane, who's isolated in the gamekeeper's cottage with her husband wasn't a legitimate excuse either. He'd invited Elizabeth-the only woman he'd ever really fancied-Elizabeth, who'd refused him without reservation at the Rosings Book Festival. Now, he spends part of every day in Elizabeth's company while struggling to keep his feelings hidden from not only her but also his nosy sister and motherly housekeeper. What a bloody nightmare!When William Darcy showed up on her doorstep, the last thing Elizabeth Bennet expected was an invitation to Pemberley, yet she now lives in the poshest of rooms and can walk the extensive gardens and the forests without limits. Even Tilney, her timid Maine Coon cat, is willing to brave strangers to explore his new surroundings, but Elizabeth has no idea how to behave around Darcy. If no one can say when lockdown will end, she could be living at Pemberley indefinitely. How do you live with a man you're attracted to, but who tries your every last nerve? How is she supposed to stay confined with Mr. Darcy?
