His cousin had not learnt the art in the army, but instead, from the years they had spent together in their youth. At Richard’s first mention of the trip, he had refused, but his cousin, a colonel in the Regulars, was quite adept at picking and picking until Darcy relented.

“If I am ill-tempered, why would two months in a house with Bingley’s sister improve my disposition?” When he awakened this morning, he had not expected he would be journeying to Cheapside today.

Don’t forget to tell me what you think afterwards!įitzwilliam Darcy dropped his head back into the squabs of the carriage with a sigh. I don’t have a cover yet, but I’m about to start working on it. In the meantime, I hope you’re ready for the holidays because I have a Christmas story I’m prepping to come out next month. Happy Friday! I’ve been busy fixing up my house as well as proofing the audiobook for Rain and Retribution, which is extremely close to being submitted for approval.
