Thoughtful, revealing, and effectively told, Passion and Principle is a must-read for Jane Austen fans in search of a realistic sequel to Pride and Prejudice that is dignified and true to form.
Honoring Austen’s tone without retelling her story, Passion and Principle confronts the strong natures of Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam in their quest for a deeper relationship beyond pleasant marital companionship. Dedicated to “learning each other,” they discover the benefits and hardships of honesty and trust; separately they challenge themselves to support the other, and together, they open doors to secrets neither of them had imagined.
Passion and Principle not only follows the Darcys’ quest for a more perfect union, but also details the struggles of the loved ones intricately entangled in their lives. With humor and intensity, heroic efforts, supporting characters, and critical conflicts unfold in a story that tests the passions and principles of a family who must learn to accept and forgive if it is to survive.
Passion and Principle is Book One of M.J. Felice’s forthcoming five-part “Heart of Pemberley” series that continues the Darcys and Austen’s other notable Pride and Prejudice characters into their futures.
