As soon as he learned of Lydia Bennet's elopement, he rushed to London to try to put everything to rights. But his journey was fruitless: Mr. Bennet died of his wounds before Darcy could bring a doctor. Now, he must convince Elizabeth to forgive and marry him before she is beyond his reach forever. When an illegitimate child makes Lydia's shame complete, Elizabeth and Darcy are left to try to salvage what is left of their reputations and relationship.
