A lady's reputation is a fragile thing. If anyone ever discovered that Miss Elizabeth Bennet had received a letter from a single gentleman, she could be ruined...or forced to marry a man she detests. In this Pride & Prejudice variation, Elizabeth takes the safer course and refuses to read Mr. Darcy's letter of explanation. Returning home unaware of Wickham's true nature, Elizabeth confesses everything to him, putting both Mr. Darcy and herself in grave danger from Wickham's schemes.

"Another great Pride & Prejudice variation from Abigail Reynolds. The tension that she creates between Elizabeth and Darcy is exquisite. I really enjoyed this one, lots of twists and turns."
— Kim (4 out of 5 stars)
" I felt like the characters behaved in ways that were out of character and were inconsistent throughout the book. The story kind of went all over the place. I tried to keep an open mind, but this book just wasn't my cup of tea. "
— Bonnie, 1/16/2014" I liked the basic premise of behind the scenes of what happened I wish the other would have stuck a little bit more to the original, especially with the outcome of Lydia. "
— Kathy, 1/14/2014" How things change when Lizzy refuses to read Darcys letter, interesting take on P&P "
— Katherine, 12/2/2013" This tells the background of the things Mr. Darcy did before he married his true love. If you loved Pride and Prejudice than you will love this one! "
— Cincibaby, 11/22/2013" Disappointed!! Three-quarters of the way through the book (that up to that point was pretty much a retelling of Pride & Prejudice with a few variations) she decides Elizabeth & Darcy will make mad, passionate love BEFORE marriage. How UN-Jane!!!!!!! "
— Nancy, 10/11/2013" Quite an interesting variation and I really liked how it all played out. "
— Stacee, 10/10/2013" Enjoyable, as Abigail Reynolds tends to be! "
— Amy, 8/29/2013" Because it could compromise her, Elizabeth tears up the letter Darcy gives her after his failed proposal and goes back home without learning the truth about Wickham in this variation. Lots of angst and plot twists along the way. "
— Deb, 5/29/2013" (Free ebook) I didn't like her story line where Elizabeth never reads Mr. Darcy's letter. Some things are best left alone. Stopped reading this shortly after I started. "
— Jayne, 2/24/2013" This was just the thing to read on my few days off form school. "
— Anasheh, 2/13/2013" I loved this variation. It was refreshing to see lydia put in check. "
— Dianna, 8/18/2012" Fabulous story, could not put the book down!! "
— Suze, 8/10/2012" Stupid pointless book and it made me mad. "
— Johanna, 8/7/2012" This wasn't Reynold's best Variation. Some parts of the plot seemed out of place. Others seemed silly and far-fetched. The ending was confusing and anti-climactic. I've read better from this author. "
