The Darcy List
Description
Every woman dreams of her own Mr Darcy. Florence Elliot wrote a list for him.
At sixteen, Florence and her best friend Alice used their copies of Pride and Prejudice to create The Darcy List - a half-joke, half-blueprint for the perfect man. They were teenagers dreaming, but for Florence it always meant something more.
Years later, after a glamorous but unhappy marriage in high-society California, Florence returns home to the English countryside with nothing but a rescue dog and a suitcase. Surrounded by quaint villages and tight-knit communities, she feels totally lost.
Until she finds a crumbling village pub for sale. For the first time in years, Florence chooses something entirely for herself. But bringing The Black Horse back to life will take more than determination...
Enter Lachlan Shaw, the Scottish architect overseeing the restoration. He's talented but frustratingly difficult to read, and their first meeting sparks friction. But as the building begins to take shape, so does a connection neither of them expected. And Florence finds herself thinking about The Darcy List again.
She's been brave enough to start over... but is she brave enough to love again?
The Darcy List is a warm and uplifting contemporary romance about second chances and new beginnings, perfect for fans of Phillipa Ashley and Jill Mansell.
