This is not the holiday Elizabeth Bennet expected... After the tragic passing of her sister, Lydia, Elizabeth Bennet has become the guardian of Lydia's daughter, Helena. With a child and a pleasant (enough) fiancé by her side, Christmas at her childhood home promises to be one filled with joy. However, when she happens upon an old acquaintance, Elizabeth is shocked to find that this season may have a surprise or two in store for her yet, Fitzwilliam Darcy did not plan to spend his Christmas in Meryton... Following a series of unexpected and deeply unpleasant events at home, Fitzwilliam Darcy is more than happy to accept an invitation to visit his old friend Charles Bingley at his country home for Christmas. He is looking forward to rest, relaxation, and most of all... quiet. But when he arrives, he is quickly swept up into the holiday revelry of the Bennet family, Charles's in-laws. What starts as nuisance slowly turns into a pleasing distraction, especially when he is in the company of Elizabeth Bennet, a woman he once could hardly tolerate. But what has changed? Can two former enemies with little in common find friendship and perhaps, love, this holiday season? 'A Curious Christmas Circumstance' is a 'Pride and Prejudice' variation filled with holiday romance, twists, and of course, a HEA for ODC!
