The Road to Understanding

DARIUS FITZWILLIAM's life is planned down to who he will marry and where he will live, but life has a way of saying, "You don't get to choose." When his marriage to his long-time betrothed Caroline Bradford falls through, Darius is forced to take a step back and to look upon a woman who enflames his blood with desire, but also engenders disbelief. Eliza Harris is everything that Darius never realized he wanted. ELIZA HARRIS is accustomed to doing as she pleases. Yet, despite being infuriated by his authoritative manner, when she meets the staunchly disciplined Captain Fitzwilliam, she wishes for more. She instinctively knows he is "home," but Eliza possesses no skills in achieving her aspirations. Plagued with misunderstandings, manipulations, and peril upon the Great Valley Road between eastern Virginia and western Tennessee in the years following the Revolutionary War, Darius and Eliza claim a strong allegiance before love finds its way into their hearts. This is a faith-based tale based on Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
