Overview: Darcy, that woman you married will bring you nothing but public shame. You have barely digested your breakfast. This is not a decent hour for her to display her arts and allurements.
TEN DAYS AFTER MR DARCY AND ELIZABETH BENNET are wed in Meryton, a still-disapproving Lady Catherine de Bourgh arrives on their London doorstep to offer her unsolicited advice to the new Mrs Darcy. Still consumed with the importance of family, rank, and the proper order of things, she demands that the Elizabeth learn the ways of the ton from her.
A FURIOUS DARCY IS DESPERATE to get his wife to Pemberley but Elizabeth, seeing an opportunity to ease family tensions, persuades him to allow his aunt a little time to assist her introduction to society with ‘lessons’ in comportment, fashion, and music appreciation. Darcy is appalled but willing to do as his bride requests, even as he must occasionally rescue Elizabeth from one of his aunt’s ridiculous schemes.
THINGS TAKE A TURN when an unexpected visitor from Lady Catherine’s past appears and the disagreeable dowager loses all sense of propriety. As she undertakes her own transformation, she turns to her obstinate headstrong pupil for advice while Darcy, Colonel Fitzwilliam, Georgiana, and the rest of the family investigate the gentleman dandy responsible for the shocking but welcome change.
A DELICATE ROSE is humorous sequel to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
