In Pride & Prejudice, Jane Austen captured hearts with the passion-filled romance of Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Now, Mr. Darcy's Decision finds the newlyweds in their tumultuous first year of married life at Pemberley, entrenched in the frivolous social pressures of their prying friends and family.
While the sharp-tongued duo of Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Caroline Bingley criticizes Elizabeth, the new Mrs. Darcy has a happier matter on her mind—the fact that she is carrying the next Darcy heir. But when the sudden and unexpected return of Elizabeth's sister Lydia brings alarming reports of seduction and blackmail that threaten the newlyweds' life together, Mr. Darcy is forced to make the most difficult decision of his lifetime.
Written in a style that stays true to the author's sardonic wit, Mr. Darcy's Decision paints a vivid portrait of Regency society—full of romance, tragedy, humor, and intrigue.

Mr. Darcy's Decision: A Sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice
This story gives us all the Bennet sisters having their parts. Mary, oddly, is hired as Anne de Bourgh's companion. Lydia shows up back home when she not only discovers Wickham cheating on her (and then abandoning her) but also that she is pregnant. Jane and Bingley negotiate to buy an estate closer to Pemberley. Kitty's part comes late in the story but she is attracted to a parson.
Elizabeth and Darcy have had some time to enjoy their marriage but now invited and UNINVITED guests show up at Pemberley. Mrs. Bennet finally gets to see Elizabeth's home but then they all learn from a letter Collins writes (He is now living with the Lucases due to Lady C.'s anger over the Darcy marriage and Collins' relationship to Darcy's bride.) that Lydia is back at Longbourn and she is not well. Her pregnancy and being abandoned by Wickham creates another scandalous situation so Mrs. Bennet not only dictates that Lydia will move to Pemberley but also that the baby will be raised by the Darcys as their own!!! Wickham shows up in Lambton and we learn that his running off with Lydia was paid for by someone who wanted only that scandal NOT that he would marry her. He lost the second half of his pay-off when he married her and thus the scandal was not enough to end Darcy's attentions to Elizabeth. He is still seeking a way to gain money from that planned seduction.
Caroline is at Pemberely and makes friends with Lady Catherine as they have in common wanting to do everything they can to undermine the Darcy marriage. There are others in this story with their parts, eligible men who attract...even studious Mary. There is also a lady author who wants to write a story about Darcy but, of course, disguising his identity just enough so no one will guess on whom the story is based.
In editing this story from the works contained in Excessively Diverted: The Sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice the author many times leaves out the space that comes after a period at the end of a sentence. Not always but many times - Odd!
This longer story was interesting and keep my attention so I can recommend it here.
