Darcy and Anne — Judith Brocklehurst

He's like a big brother to her...

Fitzwilliam Darcy didn't necessarily dislike his cousin Anne de Bourgh, he just never desired to marry her. So when she turns up at Pemberley alone, of course he isn't going to send her back to her miserable life at Rosings.

Without his help, she'll never get away from her mother...

Anne has never had a chance to figure out what she wants for herself, until a fortuitous accident on the way to Pemberley separates Anne from her formidable mother. With her stalwart cousin Darcy and his lively wife Elizabeth on her side, she begins to feel she might be able to spread her wings...

But Lady Catherine's pride and determination to find Anne a suitable husband threaten to overwhelm Anne's newfound freedom and budding sense of self. And without Darcy and Elizabeth's help, Anne will never have a chance to find true love...
