His London Shame. When Mr. Darcy Atones, #1

Pride was easy. Atonement could take all winter. When Fitzwilliam Darcy watches Jane Bennet leave his friend's house with her question unanswered, shame strikes harder than pride. He has not saved Bingley from an imprudent attachment. He has only helped prolong the quiet mortification of a woman too modest to accuse him of it. Determined to make amends, Darcy begins the work of atonement in London-carefully, privately, and with no certainty he can repair the harm he has done.
But Elizabeth Bennet is watching. Loyal to her sister, and lately given fresh reason by Darcy's own cousin to think the worst of him, she has every cause to distrust his sudden civility. As London brings them together-in galleries, theatres, Gracechurch Street, and Darcy's own dining room-Elizabeth begins, against every instinct, to discover a man very different from the one she condemned. As Jane and Bingley are drawn once more toward one another, Darcy's path to atonement becomes entangled with Elizabeth's changing heart.
Elegant, slow-burning, and rich with Austen-inspired tension, His London Shame opens Jessie Michaels's When Mr. Darcy Atones trilogy with a question worthy of every Pride and Prejudice reader: can a proud man become worthy of a love he has not yet earned the right to ask for?
