Prevailed Upon to Marry: A Variation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice

By Mary Smythe

Prevailed Upon to Marry is a forced marriage Pride and Prejudice variation perfect for fans of romantic comedy and chivalric heroes.

To love and be loved in return-what more could any rational person wish for?

THE NEWS OF ELIZABETH BENNET'S ENGAGEMENT hits Fitzwilliam Darcy with all the force of a runaway carriage. That she is set to marry her toadying cousin, Mr Collins, only makes the travesty worse. But what can he do?

ELIZABETH BENNET DOES NOT wish to throw herself away on Mr Collins, but with the hedgerows looming ever closer, she has not much choice. When Mr Darcy arrives at Longbourn just in time to present her with an alternative, she has to ask herself-is he truly the last man in the world she could be prevailed upon to marry? Or is it Mr Collins? The answer is a simple, if surprising, one.HOWEVER A JILTED BRIDEGROOM is not so easily put aside, particularly not when it is Mr William Collins, and so Darcy and Elizabeth are required to flee to Scotland, taking the daring step of eloping together. With conflicted feelings between them and determined pursuers hard on their heels, the road to matrimony has never been bumpier but the happily ever after promises to be sweeter for it.
