Description:**
NOT a rewriting
of ‘Her Grace’. It is a new story with the characters in that book, but in different situations and perspectives.** It is a full length novel of 160,000 plus words. **Also For Kindle & KU only, a free copy of 'The Duke's Daughter' is included.*This book looks at how everything would be different if the Duke of Hertfordshire was not a bad person, if he was in fact, a very good and honourable man.When he is still the Marquess of Hertford, Lord Archibald Winston Chamberlain makes an ill-advised agreement with his father, Lord Winston Chamberlain, the current Duke of Hertfordshire. The latter is devastated over the death of his beloved Duchess, Lady Grace, and decides that he will not allow his son to experience the pain of losing a spouse he loves.The Duke’s daughter, who is older than her brother has made a love match, so there is nothing he can do about that, and that makes him all the more determined to intercede with his son and save him from that fate.When the Marquess is in his twenties, he is informed that his father will arrange a match for him. He appeals to the Duke and a compromise is reached. Lord Archy can find his own wife, but his father has veto power, which he will exercise if he does not agree the selected woman is appropriate for his son. However, if by the age of 30 the Marquess is unmarried, the Duke will select for him.Lord Hertford reaches the milestone birthday and is still single. As much as he wanted a love match like his parents and sister, he gave his word of honour, and therefore marries the woman his father selects. Some months after the wedding, Lord Winston dies and Lord Archibald and his wife become the Duke and Duchess of Hertfordshire.Meanwhile Thomas Bennet has inherited the estate, Longbourn, which he never wanted to own. He was much happier in the world of academia, working towards a professorship at Cambridge.A year or two before Bennet takes over as master of Longbourn, Fanny Gardiner, already with child, elopes with an officer. Without a settlement, the man claims, and then proceeds to squander her dowry. Fanny delivers a girl, named Jane, and within a year of her birth, the husband is shot when caught with another man’s wife.A practically penniless Fanny returns to Meryton where, thanks to her dishonourable behaviour and the effect on his beloved wife, her father wants nothing to do with her. Hattie and Frank Phillips take her in reluctantly, only because of their niece.As distasteful as it is to him, Bennet knows he must marry and beget a son to make sure the Collins family do not inherit the estate after him. As she puts herself in his path with no effort of his own, Bennet proposes to, is accepted by, and marries Fanny. No matter how much she demands it, he refuses to adopt Jane and give her the Bennet name.Fanny soon becomes pregnant, supremely confident she is carrying a son, but delivers a daughter. Bennet names her Elizabeth Rose after his late mother. Fanny hates the girl for refusing to be a son. As such, she will not hold or feed the newborn. Instead, she sends her out to a tenant who is still feeding her newest child. A little more than a year later Mary arrives, and like she did with Lizzy, Fanny rejects the girl. Bennet cannot bother himself to stand up for his daughters.When Lizzy is 2 and Mary 7 months, Edward Gardiner and his new wife, Madeline, have Bennet transfer custody of the two girls to them and take them to London where they shower love and care on them.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
