Not for herself, of course. She isn't looking for love. Instead, she hopes her discovery will lift her sister Jane's spirits after her recent heartbreak.

Darcy has struggled to stay away from Elizabeth, but her liveliness and wit have haunted his dreams. Now, as he discovers her deep kindness and generosity to his sister, it is even harder to resist her. Between the festive season and a Twelfth Night celebration in London, secrets unravel, and true priorities emerge. Will a kiss under the legendary Netherfield mistletoe kindle a connection between them, or will pride and misunderstanding yet again stand in their way?
