She’s protecting her family from disgrace. He’s shielding his from slander. Trapped in a compromising situation, can they find a path to love?
 
Elizabeth Bennet is dreadfully impulsive. Traveling with her sisters to visit Ramsgate, the headstrong woman befriends a shy young lady despite also feeling awkward attraction to the girl’s stern older brother. But after she discovers her brash youngest sister has vanished in company with a rake, she turns to the handsome estate owner for help foiling the elopement.
 
Fitzwilliam Darcy’s curt exterior conceals a generous heart. Aware that his lack of forthrightness regarding a scoundrel’s nature has put others in danger, he agrees to assist the outspoken lady in distress. But when their scheme fails, he feels the only gentlemanly choice is to save the intriguing woman’s reputation by offering his hand in marriage.
 
Pretending it’s a love match to distract society from circling scandal, Elizabeth puts on a brave face while trying to uncover her husband’s true feelings. But though he’s slowly falling for his wife, Darcy fears old enemies will drag them down.
 
As tensions rise, will their bond break or grow into a happily ever after?
