New Year Resolutions

[NOTE: This book is the second and last volume of a two-volume novel. It does not stand on its own. The storylines depicted here were introduced in Volume I -- A Fitzwilliam Legacy: Seasonal Disorder. They are resolved in this final volume. While it may be read on its own, the reader's information will be incomplete without first having read Seasonal Disorder.] Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy have found their first Christmastide together at Pemberley to be something of a trial. Lady Catherine deBourgh and her daughter Anne arrived quite unexpectedly; another guest suffered accident and has been consigned to her rooms to recuperate; Jane and Bingley are house hunting; at least six of their family and friends are in various stages of love, with all its attendant miseries. And just when they thought there could be no further intrigues, one of their party ended up on the drawing room carpet in a dead faint! Given all that to contend with, what is a couple to do? Why... host a ball, of course! This conclusion to Volume I, A Fitzwilliam Legacy: Seasonal Disorder, resolves unfinished business even as the Darcy family moves into the New Year... 1799... while introducing yet more surprises right through a Twelfth Night celebration in the end!
