Felicity in Marriage: Part One

When Pride and Prejudice ends, Felicity in Marriage begins.
But will happiness last when the realities of life take over?

Mrs. Bennet has nothing more to wish for. With three daughters married – two of whom most advantageously - her business in life is very nearly complete.

Elizabeth Darcy and Jane Bingley have certainly found felicity in marriage as the ladies of Pemberley and Netherfield, enjoying the loving affection of their husbands and everything such positions in society command. But Lydia's marriage to the unscrupulous George Wickham does not leave her parents or sisters entirely sanguine.

Step back inside the delightful world of Pride and Prejudice and Wickham's Wife and join your favorite characters as they continue with their lives and loves. Listen to the gossip; understand the delights and vexations of early marriage; visit old relationships; experience country living, and the excitement of Regency London. The ending of Austen's famous novel is just the beginning.


Author's note: Pride and Prejudice leaves us wanting to follow the characters into their new lives. The hints Austen gives at the end of the novel about each character are not enough: we want to know if everything continues happily-ever-after.
Now, using those hints, I have written what I think happens after Lizzy and Darcy walk off into that rose-tinted Regency sunset - with them, and everyone connected to them.
Enjoy!
