Will Darcy ever grow to love a child he never wanted?
In Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Fitzwilliam Darcy’s proposal to Elizabeth Bennet at Hunsford is disastrous. In Jan Hahn’s The Child, Darcy flees England soon afterward, striving to overcome his longing for her. Upon his return two years later―while standing on the steps of St. George’s Church in Hanover Square―he spies the very woman he has vowed to forget. But who is the child holding her hand?
Darcy soon discovers that Elizabeth and her family are suffering the effects of a devastating scandal. His efforts to help the woman he still loves only worsen her family’s plight. His misguided pride entangles him in a web of falsehood, fateful alliances, and danger.
Will Elizabeth be able to forgive Darcy for his good intentions gone awry? And what effect will the child have on Darcy’s hopes to win Elizabeth’s love?
GIVE ME MR. DARCY’S POV ANYDAY!!
I love anything by Jan Hahn, her stories are original, fresh and take me on a P&P journey that always leaves this Janeite, content and wanting more.
The Child is such a heartfelt book, I loved Darcy in this one, he is so wonderful. He loved Elizabeth so much that he was willing to do anything and proved it time and time again in this book, to make her his. DREAM DARCY ALERT!
Their journey to HEA is not smooth sailing but that is what makes Jan’s books so great, they give us all the same yearning and burning as the canon we love to so much, yet are all completely her own. AMAZING!
The Child was everything I look for in an adaption it has all the angst, the misunderstandings, the wonderful sexual tension between our two favorite characters and the best journey to back to one another ever! I LOVED IT!!
Award-winning writer Jan Hahn is the author of five Austen-inspired novels. She studied music at the University of Texas, but discovered her true love was a combination of journalism and literature. Her first book, An Arranged Marriage, was published in 2011, followed by The Journey, The Secret Betrothal, A Peculiar Connection, and The Child. The anthology, The Darcy Monologues, contains her short story entitled Without Affection. She agrees with Mr. Darcy’s words in Pride and Prejudice: ‘A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.’
Jan is a member of JASNA, lives in Texas, has five children and a gaggle of grandchildren
