Lucia Darcy has never lacked love, but she has never experienced it deeply, that is not until the dimpled Mr. Emmet challenges everything she has ever known about love. Has she been wrong all this time?
Daughter of the handsome and respected Fitzwilliam Darcy and the beautiful, beloved Elizabeth, Lucia can’t help but fall in love with any and every gentleman who appears to like her. They’re all so pleasant, but her generous heart has gotten her into trouble before. It’s time she focused on other endeavors, like proving she is capable of more than dressing in fine gowns and playing the pianoforte. So when Lucia receives an unexpected request to visit the ailing Lady Catherine de Bourgh who has just lost her daughter, Lucia is happy to comply. She is not eager, however, to receive the attentions of other handsome guests at Rosings, particularly Mr. Emmet who alternates between flirting and challenging her ideas of love. She is determined not to foolishly lose her heart again, but those perfectly dimpled cheeks and blue-grey eyes are strangely familiar. Will Lucia learn to recognize what real love feels like before the man who has loved her all along walks away?
