Disguise of Any Sort: A Pride and Prejudice Variation – MJ Stratton

Description:

Elizabeth Bennet never meant to disobey.
With her mother in the throes of delivering an unexpected sixth child, a fifteen-year-old Elizabeth and her sisters are ushered into the garden. Restless, Elizabeth wanders off and is stunned to witness a deadly carriage accident. She races to the rescue, but only a wee babe survives the devastating wreck, protected from harm in the arms of his mother.
Uncertain what to do, Elizabeth brings the child back to the house, only to learn that her mother and new younger brother have died. Faced with an uncertain future, a ruse is perpetuated: the orphaned child will become a Bennet. The burden of secrecy falls on Elizabeth’s shoulders, and as the years pass, feels almost too heavy to bear.
Fitzwilliam Darcy has searched for his missing cousin for five long years. Miss de Bourgh’s disappearance shocked her mother, and though time plods on, Lady Catherine refuses to believe her only child will never return. How surprising, then, when Darcy encounters a young boy who is the very image of his Fitzwilliam cousins, while on visit to Hertfordshire. Questions abound, and one person seems as if she might hold the answers.
Torn between duty to her family and her growing love for the gentleman from Derbyshire, Elizabeth must decide if she can trust Darcy enough to reveal her secret. But specters from the past rise up, threatening the future for all, and disguise of any sort is abhorrent to Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.
Disguise of Any Sort is a sweet, low-angst Pride and Prejudice Variation novel.
