STORY DESCRIPTION
The Gift of Good Character by Gailie Ruth Caress
When Mr Darcy realizes his pride has blinded him to both his friend Bingley's happiness and his own growing love for Elizabeth Bennet, he makes the bold gesture of inviting the entire Bennet family to spend Christmas at his London home. Through festive traditions, theatrical performances of King Lear, and moments of unexpected intimacy, Darcy must prove he has truly changed—while Elizabeth discovers that the proud man she once rejected may be exactly the gentleman her heart desires.
