What Comes Between Cousins
Jann Rowland
- Mr.
- Darcy
- and
- his
- cousin,
- Colonel
- Fitzwilliam,
- have
- always
- been
- the
- best
- of
- friends,
- with
- little,
- if
- anything,
- coming
- between
- them.
- But
- when
- Mr.
- Bingley
- leases
- Netherfield,
- their
- relationship
- is
- tested,
- for
- though
- Mr.
- Darcy
- is
- still
- the
- proprietor
- of
- a
- large
- estate
- in
- Derbyshire,
- the
- colonel's
- situation
- has
- changed,
- and
- he
- is
- very
- much
- Mr.
- Darcy's
- equal.When
- the
- two
- cousins
- are
- introduced
- to
- Miss
- Elizabeth
- Bennet,
- they
- each
- recognize
- her
- for
- the
- jewel
- she
- is.
- A
- rivalry
- springs
- up
- between
- them,
- in
- which
- each
- is
- determined
- to
- win
- the
- fair
- Miss
- Bennet.As
- the
- situation
- between
- cousins
- deteriorates,
- clarity
- begins
- to
- come
- for
- Elizabeth,
- and
- she
- sees
- Mr.
- Darcy
- as
- the
- man
- who
- will
- fill
- all
- her
- desires
- in
- a
- husband.
- But
- the
- rivalry
- between
- cousins
- is
- not
- the
- only
- trouble
- brewing
- for
- Elizabeth.
- There
- are
- others
- who
- have
- an
- interest
- in
- keeping
- her
- apart
- from
- her
- gentleman,
- making
- her
- path
- to
- happiness
- fraught
- with peril.
