Desperate to save her sister, Elizabeth sails to France...only to find herself trapped on a ship with Mr. Darcy!
Peace has been declared with France, and it seems all Elizabeth Bennet has to worry about is avoiding her mother's insistence on marriage – until her youngest sister, Lydia, runs off with Mr. Wickham to France. Though her father seems unconcerned, Elizabeth is determined to rescue her sister and save the family's reputation. After a misunderstanding leaves her sailing alone except for her maid, Elizabeth encounters the one man she never hoped to see again – Mr. Darcy.
Still stung from Miss Bennet's spirited rejection of his proposal, Mr. Darcy offers to help his cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam, track down a runaway turncoat in France. The Channel ought to be wide enough to put Elizabeth's bright eyes behind him. But no sooner has he set foot on board ship but he runs into the very woman he was hoping to avoid.
Caught between admiration and dismay, protectiveness and scorn, Darcy and Elizabeth are soon thrown together on the trail of Lydia and Wickham – a hunt that will take them across Normandy, from officers' balls to subversive book clubs. Can they track down the runaways? And will their grudging collaboration turn to a different kind of respect?
For Miss Bennet's Honour is a sweet clean Pride and Prejudice Regency variation, with a HEA. The author is British and this book uses British English spelling throughout. Contains radical intellectuals, French spies, midnight carriage races, and unexpected waltzing.
