The Matches

This book contains two novellas about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy. In the first story entitled 'Jane and Elizabeth meet their Matches', Mr. Darcy finds Elizabeth had met his sister before but she had not told him of it. He wondered why she had not told him and asked her why? How do they find their way in forming a relationship? At the same time, Jane Bennet has qualms about being connected to the Bingley family because of Mr. Bingley's negligence in not curbing his sister's critical comments about the the Bennet family, the town of Meryton and all of it s citizens. Does she find the man of her dreams and how do both girls manage their relationships? In 'Some Strategic Courtships', the whole Bennet family is somehow blessed by an accident that had occurred on the Great North Road. Mr. Bennet had been escorting his daughter Elizabeth from a visit to London and it was time for her to come home, but on the way they came upon a wrecked carriage. Mr. Bennet and his driver pulled an injured man out of the wreck and took him to Longbourn and from that day on the lives of the Bennet family changed and the changes prove the be blessings for them in ways they had not imagined before.
