Darcy’s
Hope ~ Beauty from Ashes,
A WW1 Pride & Prejudice Variation
____________________________________________________________
Escape to the era of Downton Abbey and
experience all the drama of World War 1 alongside literature’s iconic Elizabeth
Bennet & Fitzwilliam Darcy. You'll watch their tender love unfold as they
learn to work together and reconcile their differences amidst the carnage of
war.
____________________________________________________________
1916. World War I has turned French chateaux into bloody field
hospitals, British gentlemen into lice-infested soldiers, and left Elizabeth
Bennet's life in tatters.
Her father is dead and her home
destroyed. Never again will Elizabeth depend on a man to secure her future!
But when an opportunity arises to
advance her dreams of becoming a doctor, she is elated—until he
arrives....
Heartbroken. Devastated. Captain
Fitzwilliam Darcy is left rejected by the woman he loved and reeling from the
slaughter of his men on the battlefield. “Enough!” Darcy vows. “No more
sentimental attachments!”
But arriving at a field hospital to
pursue a covert investigation, Darcy discovers his beloved Elizabeth training
with a dashing American doctor and embroiled in an espionage conspiracy.
With only a few months to expose the
plot, Darcy is forced to grapple with his feelings for Elizabeth while
uncovering the truth. Is she indeed innocent? Darcy can only hope….
•Cameo appearance by John Thornton (of
Gaskill’s North & South).
•Rated PG. Clean romance, mild
language, some war scenes.
• Darcy's Hope has a happy ending
but will continue in Darcy's Hope at Donwell Abbey, coming in February
2017. In the sequel, readers will experience the full resolution of the
mystery, and our beloved couple's love will face a new, tragic test.

With Darcy’s Hope set during the era of Downton Abbey and the tour being right before Christmas, I thought it would be fun to use Downton Abbey ornaments as the giveaway. Seven ornaments will be given away via Rafflecopter.
The ornament giveaway is open to US residents in the continental US. The prize for residents of the continental UK is a Downton Abbey mug.
Thank you for visiting my blog during your tour, Ginger. I'm glad that you got to make it this year. The book sounds exciting and to have a cameo by John Thornton, makes it all the more so.
The giveaway is fantastic and I hope my readers will take the time to visit the other blogs. Congratulations on such a successful launch and best wishes for your continued success. I hope to have you visit again when the next book releases.
What a lovely post, Janet, thank you!
ReplyDeleteI hope readers will take a moment to have a look at the video trailer you linked in the general info above. Many readers have commented on how much they enjoyed it. And those that purchase the book are enjoying Lizzy's Scrapbook as well.
If you love Jane Austen and/or period drama, join me on FB at Ginger Monette, author (link is above). I post a few times a week, generally something that strikes my fancy on one of those two topics.
Enjoy Darcy's Hope!
I've never watched Downton Abbey so will stay out of the giveaway to give someone else a chance. The book cover still strikes me as having very strange eyes, but the excerpts and reviews, not to mention the scrapbook, are all drawing me in. And it is, after all, the *story* that matters ... The video gave me chills ...
ReplyDeleteThe trailer and the scrapbook are excellent. I enjoyed them both.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a generous and appropriate giveaway! Lovely plot.
ReplyDeleteI'm so enjoying reading this book and Lizzy's Scrapbook is wonderful. The video trailer sets the scene just perfectly. I can fecommend it to anyone who's hesitating.
ReplyDeleteI'm already jazzed up to read this one, but fun to see all the extras with the tour. :)
