A gentleman in love cannot survive without his best friend...
Fitzwilliam Darcy and Colonel Fitzwilliam couldn't be more different, and that goes for the way each one woos and pursues the woman of his dreams. Darcy is quiet and reserved, careful and dutiful, and his qualms and hesitations are going to torpedo his courtship of Elizabeth. His affable and vivacious cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam is a military hero whose devil-may-care personality hides the torments within, until he finds himself in a passionate, whirlwind affair with a beautiful widow who won't hear of his honorable intentions.
Cousins, best friends, and sparring partners, Darcy and Fitzwilliam have always been there for each other. So it's no surprise when the only one who can help Darcy fix his botched marriage proposals is Fitzwilliam, and the only one who can pull Fitzwilliam out of an increasingly dangerous entanglement is Darcy...
From Booklist
Married life is bliss. At least that is what Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam's cousin Fitzwilliam Darcy would have him believe. But Richard has no intention of stepping into the parson's mousetrap until he encounters American widow Amanda Penrod at one of London's innumerous balls. Instantly smitten, Richard suddenly finds himself behaving as foolishly as Mr. Darcy did when he was courting Elizabeth Bennet. While Richard is busy struggling to navigate the unfamiliar seas of romance with Amanda, an unexpected storm in the person of Caroline Bingley threatens to stir up the formerly placid matrimonial waters of the Darcy household. While staying true to the spirit of the immortal Jane, Wasylowski does bring some subtle changes of her own into Pride and Prejudice (including giving one of literature's great harridans, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, a kinder, gentler personality), and her deftly written tale of family, friendship, and marriage should please most Regency readers. --John Charles
Review
There were many parts of this story to like and love and it shouldn't disappoint. Many stories that try to provide an ending for much-loved characters often do not supply the satisfaction that the reader wants, but I think this one will. We are able to see the depth of love between Lizzy and Darcy (and their bedroom antics supply many a smile for the household) and these characters seem to be kept true to form throughout the book
