    Summary

    Captain Jake "Hangman" Seresin had come close to swinging from the gallows more times than he would care to admit. He's stolen, cheated, even killed. The worst thing he's ever done? Broken the heart of a woman. Having broken the heart of the woman whom Davy Jones himself had fallen for six years ago, Jake is now cursed to live as something not dead, but not alive. He's doomed to live a half-life for the rest of his existence unless he manages to obtain the treasure Davy Jones deems most valuable. The problem? He has no idea what it is, and he only had seven years to obtain it.

    Summary

    1806 - Darcy Sr is going through the post in his study. Two letters bring separate issues that need to be talked about. His eyes are opened to the nasty ways of his wayward godson. Oh, and his son needs a wife to carry on the Darcy legacy.

    1808 - Miss Elizabeth Bennet is playing with her young cousins in the park when she spots a young boy in danger of being hit by a spooked horses hooves. The boy turns out to be a Viscount, she gets severely hurt for her troubles. Mr George Darcy brings her to his home, closer to Hyde Park than hers, and cares for her.

    She is introduced to his brother and sister-in-law, who are daughterless and in desperate need of chaperoning one in society. Mrs Bennet is ready to let her least favourite daughter go and be someone else's problem.

    Two years later she is still wild and free and a lover of nature but has sharpened the tools available to her - and now in possession of a sizeable dowry - she becomes the darling of the ton. Wickham is back and tries, once again, to insinuate himself in Darcy's family by trying to woo Elizabeth and will use any means necessary...

    It is up to Darcy to protect, save and fall in love with her, with his father's sanction

    Summary

    "You do not think very highly of me, Miss Bennet. I must say I am surprised you have come to my door, but I have little idea of what you want from me."

    Elizabeth opened her mouth, then closed it again. Her heart beat furiously in her chest, and she was acutely aware of her own breath, which seemed to come in short gasps. "I am with child, Mr. Darcy." She couldn't look at him, couldn't bear to uncover his reaction to the news. "I didn't know what else to do."

    ***

    A passionate ending to the rejected proposal at Hunsford leads to unsought complications: a child. With no other options, Elizabeth seeks out Mr. Darcy.
