Resentment abounds.
With Mr. Darcy and his sister at Netherfield, Lizzy soon realizes Georgiana is suspicious of her motives and doesn't trust her. She has to win over her future sister-in-law if there is to be peace at Pemberley.

Further complications arrive with Mr. Bingley's return to Netherfield. Lady de Bourgh and her daughter, Anne, arrive in time for the ball meant to announce LIzzy and Darcy's engagement. His aunt is clearly determined to stop that from happening.

Lizzy's heart is also softening toward Mr. Darcy, but she still questions whether it's possible to fall in love within a month's time.

This is part two of a completed three-part serial that is also available as a compilation. While Abbey sometimes writes sensual JAFF, this story is strictly SWEET.
