Inspired by Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, A Fair Prospect is a tale of Darcy and Elizabeth. (Please note: this is one story told across three volumes and there is, therefore, no conclusion to the storylines in the first two volumes. This story is rated PG) Darcy's Dilemma (Vol II) continues on from Disappointed Hopes (Vol I). Thrown together by circumstance in London, and with his friend, Bingley, in hot pursuit of the eldest Miss Bennet, Darcy finds his best endeavours to relieve Elizabeth of his unwelcome presence come to naught. As the encounters continue, they seem to be developing a better appreciation of each other, but is there any future for them in the face of their previous misunderstandings, and what of Harington, the man who is deemed a fair prospect for Elizabeth's hand? As further evidence arises of a bond existing between the couple, Darcy faces a dilemma: should he remain in Town, or should he make himself scarce? Which decision will lead to the least heartache: to never lay eyes upon Elizabeth again or to watch the woman he loves being courted and wed by another?

Darcy has more than family pride to protect: others of his kind are being hunted all over England and a member of Darcy's pack is facing a crisis in Scotland.

Amazon DE Review 'This is probably the best Variation of Pride and Prejudice we have ever read (and we have read a fair few) All the characters are so true to Miss Austen's vision. We loved them. There are lot of really good variations out there but by golly gosh we enjoyed this one!' Amazon UK Review 'If I wasn't already in-love with him, I would be reduced to a puddle of drool and worship after Vol II. I L-O-V-E this Darcy...sweet, decent, principled, handsome, rich, a great older brother, a loyal friend...and so in-love with Elizabeth, that he's willing to give her up so she can be happy with another. *sigh* and **double sigh** --he's absolutely PERFECT. Simply perfect. Based on Darcy alone, Vol II would have garnered the highest recommendation.But then there's Lizzy, who is realizing that there is, indeed, a thin line between hate and love; and for our normally self-assured, spunky heroine, it's refreshing to see that Darcy --although unbeknownst to him-- has the power to absolutely confuse and befuddle her. Adorable.Vol II has everything...the hold-your-breath, heart-stopping, fall-even-more-in-love, oh-no-they-didn't moments. Bring on Vol III!!!

You might want to have a copy of the third volume, Desperate Measures, on hand, because you won't want to stop reading! It's so good!' So Little Time blog 'As with Volume I , Cassandra Grafton delivers on every level - humor, romance, attention to period detail, faithfulness to the original characters, etc. The dialogue is smart and witty - especially when Col. Fitzwilliam is in the scene. His interactions with Darcy are a highlight of this book - providing levity to the reader, as well as truly heartwarming loyalty and friendship when Darcy needs it most. I am very eager to see how Ms. Grafton resolves it all in the final volume, Desperate Measures, though I hate to see it all end.' Amazon US Review
