Now, fully completed by respected author and Austen expert Juliette Shapiro, this new edition of Sanditon finishes the original story in a vivid style recognizable to any fan.

In Pride &amp; Prejudice, Jane Austen captured hearts with the passion-filled romance of Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Now, Mr. Darcy’s Decision finds the newlyweds in their tumultuous first year of married life at Pemberley, entrenched in the frivolous social pressures of their prying friends and family. While the sharp-tongued duo of Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Caroline Bingley criticizes Elizabeth, the new Mrs. Darcy has a happier matter on her mind—the fact that she is carrying the next Darcy heir. But when the sudden and unexpected return of Elizabeth’s sister Lydia brings alarming reports of seduction and blackmail that threaten the newlyweds’ life together, Mr. Darcy is forced to make the most difficult decision of his lifetime. Written in a style that stays true to the author’s sardonic wit, Mr. Darcy’s Decision paints a vivid portrait of Regency society—full of romance, tragedy, humor, and intrigue.

To the great delight of her eccentric host Mr. Parker, she becomes captivated by the romance of the sea-side lifestyle. So is Sanditon truly the haven that Mr. Parker likes to think it is, and will Charlotte Parker ever leave?
