On Equal Ground

Well-read, observant, and spirited, a young Elizabeth Bennet draws the attention of a widowed earl. Unexpectedly, she finds herself falling in love with him, despite his age and even greater wealth.

Lord Asheland is the consummate gentleman, though his tragic life has left him jaded and uncaring of society's strictures. When he meets a young woman who makes him feel joy again, he grabs happiness with both hands.

Wealthy and titled, when Elizabeth finally meets Mr. Darcy, she outranks him. Of course that doesn't stop him from insulting her. His propensity to give offense shows no respect for rank.

When Elizabeth's perfect world is shattered, to her great surprise, Mr. Darcy offers to help her put it all back together. Can she trust a man she has disliked for so long? Can she learn to love again? And can Darcy rise to the occasion?
