"Say what you like about Eliza Bennet, but I pity her."
The other ladies were fully prepared to follow her lead, but soon found themselves in a peculiar sort of quandary. It was difficult to pity someone who had no idea of her own misfortune. On the contrary - she seemed quite delighted with her situation in general, and with her betrothed in particular. She was absorbed in him almost to the point of incivility, talking to him when he was near, and inattentive when he was not. Her eyes often followed him wherever he went, with a peculiar intent expression that Mrs Long in particular found almost indecent.
This is one of the best period fics I've ever found, with a really remarkable command of Austenean language and an obvious knowledge of canon, down to the casual references.

Darcy/Elizabeth, be still my heart! Beautifully written, a lovely slow burn romance, with well done new characters in Darcy's extended family.
