Bryen Keldragan and Aislinn Winborne head to New Caledonia, hoping to break free from their tumultuous...

Not that the mumps is foolish, but really. Hasn't everyone had it? Not Caroline Bingley, apparently. So, the Bingleys and Mr. Darcy are stuck at Netherfield Park, along with guests invited by a mysterious relative known only as Aunt Jane. Who on earth is that? No one has met her, but Emma Woodhouse claims that she is no one to trifle with. Darcy has his doubts. Later, when Elizabeth Bennet and her sister arrive seeking refuge, Darcy becomes even more...

Wickham, however, is nowhere to be found. At the same time, a titled lady appears...
