Someone is marrying Mr. Darcy, but which one? Eighteen years ago, Fitzwilliam left Netherfield and Lizzy behind after they nearly shared a kiss. Lizzy couldn't dwell on the knowledge he was going to marry Anne, because she had to accept Mr. Collins' proposal after her father's untimely death. She consigned her feelings for Fitzwilliam to a deep place in her mind, never to be considered. Years later, her daughter returns home from a visit to Rosings Park with the news William Darcy wants to marry her. Lizzy is at first opposed to her daughter marrying Mr. Darcy's son, but after seeing them together, she's convinced Lottie will be happy with the boy. It's no surprise when Mr. Darcy appears in full wrath, intent on preventing the union.
