Book Description:
"The inferiority of her connections! Yet, never was he so bewitched!" When Fitzwilliam Darcy left Hertfordshire, he was a man conflicted—bewitched by a woman of meagre fortune and vulgar relations. In Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen reveals little more about her creation—his past or present. During the months he is absent from Austen’s story, Darcy must come to terms with this invasion of his heart. Is there a woman of his own sphere who can banish Elizabeth Bennet from it?
Duty and Desire, the second book of the Fitzwilliam Darcy, Gentleman trilogy, takes the reader into Darcy’s private world as he moves among his family, friends, and foes. Determined to forget Elizabeth Bennet, he returns to Pemberley to lose himself in work and family concerns. Then he accepts an invitation to an old friend’s house party where he meets the fascinatingly beautiful and mysterious Lady Sylvanie.

Aidan's second book in her Mr. Darcy trilogy would be a great book - if it only could be removed from the series and given a different main character other than Mr. Darcy. The story is well written but not suited for the world of Pride and Prejudice. Aidan made a mistake supposing Austen fans would appreciate an entirely new cast of characters to adore, but in truth, most fans wanted to see an expansion of already beloved characters in familiar locations.
The book is one large tangent ... Read More

I bought all 3 books in this series, and while I think they all have a few shortcomings, this one was completely ridiculous! I understand that Austen's P&P gave no indication of what Darcy did during his time apart from Elizabeth, so Aidan could basically make up whatever she wanted, but come on. It felt as if while writing this, she decided on a whim that she wanted to try her hand at writing some sort of gothic novel, and what better way to indulge that whim than by putting it into a book she was ...

No way is this how Mr. Darcy spent the period of time between his first trip to Netherfield and his trip to Rosings! I enjoyed the first and third books in the trilogy but this one is pure nonsense. Aiden chose to send Darcy off to a scary castle and an adventure filled intrigue, witchcraft and child sacrifice. It is just too bizarre to be believed. Read the 1st and 2nd books but skip this loser.

I found this book a wonderful read. I loved the new characters in this book. My favorite was Darcy's gentleman, Fletcher. He was very entertaining! I also love Lord Brougham and Darcy's cousin. I like their attitudes. They showed a great contrast to Darcy's personality. I would love to read more about Lord Brougham and Fletcher. I think Fletcher was hilarious!

This was a bore from start to finish. And there was not a wit of Elizabeth from start to finish. Several reviewers have described it as "filler". I would call it "tripe". I don't know how this character was but he bears little resemblance to the Darcy we know and love.
