Overview: “Fighting for Love” is a regency Pride and Prejudice novella of approximately 20 K words, a quick, light and romantic read, recommended for those who love Elizabeth and Darcy’s immortal story.
After the disastrous proposal in Kent, Elizabeth travels to London for a short stay before returning home. She is reunited with her sister Jane, who is still in the Gardiners’ home.
As both sisters are in low spirits, Mrs. Gardiner attempts to cheer them and arranges for them to attend several parties, balls and plays.
These occasions lead Elizabeth and Darcy to be caught in some awkward encounters, both filled with regret for their past behaviour.
Furthermore, the beautiful Jane Bennet appears to have gained the interest of a wealthy earl, who has begun courting her. She is still very much in love with Mr. Bingley – who, however, has not appeared again.
Darcy has more knowledge about the earl’s true character and does not consider him a suitable match for the kind Miss Bennet. Feeling guilty for his intervention that separated Jane and Bingley, and willing to show Elizabeth that he has taken her reproaches to heart, he intervenes to remedy a situation caused by his arrogant presumptions.
When Bingley returns in town, Darcy reveals the whole truth to him. Unlike in canon, Bingley’s reaction is very strong, against Darcy, against his sisters, even against the earl who seems unworthy of Jane.
Fighting for his love, Bingley is badly injured, in danger of losing his life.
Darcy intervenes again, protecting his friend, helping him to heal in body and spirit and to reunite with the woman he loves.
Amidst these endeavours, Darcy and Elizabeth finally put their pride and prejudice aside, and unite their efforts in a fight for love and happiness.
