Poor little Lizzy! But do not be cast down. Such squeamish youths as cannot bear to be connected with a little absurdity are not worth a regret.

Wherever you and Jane are known you must be respected and valued; and you will not appear to less advantage for having a couple of\u2014 or I may say, three\u2014 very silly sisters. We shall have no peace at Longbourn if Lydia does not go to Brighton. Let her go, then. Colonel Forster is a sensible man, and will keep her out of any real mischief; and she is luckily too poor to be an object of prey to anybody. At Brighton she will be of less importance even as a common flirt than she has been here. The officers will find women better worth their notice. Let us hope, therefore, that her being there may teach her her own insignificance. At any rate, she cannot grow many degrees worse, without authorising us to lock her up for the rest of her life.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this answer Elizabeth was forced to be content; but her own opinion continued the same, and she left him disappointed and sorry&#8230;<\/span><\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chapter One<\/span><\/h1><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Squeamish youths!

When Lizzy and Lydia arrive in Brighton, it&#8217;s very clear that the younger Bennet sister came with very serious plans towards Mr. Wickham. Thankfully, an old ally is also in town, with problems of his own to solve. After Mr. Darcy, himself, is summoned to Brighton to hopefully solve two dilemmas with one wealthy member of the gentry, the whole militia is thrown into an uproar by Wickham&#8217;s most dastardly deed, yet.

And so I write to you begging your forgiveness, but pleading your understanding, that I am declining your most generous invitation to travel this summer. Instead, I shall take myself to Brighton, endure Lydia\u2019s antics, and play politely with the regimental society.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLizzie, there you are! I thought you were speaking with Papa,\u201d Jane interrupted her sister\u2019s letter writing. Elizabeth spun around in her chair and the redness of her cheeks gave Jane pause.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe won\u2019t listen to reason!\u201d she yelled, infuriated. As her father\u2019s words had stung her heart, words of another man were suddenly fresh in her mind. In Kent, just three months past, Mr. Darcy had unkindly laid out her family\u2019s shortcomings, even listing her father as a participant in the ridiculous behavior. If Mr. Darcy could see her now, he would feel quite vindicated.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWho? Papa?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elizabeth nodded. Tears of frustration began to fall mixed with a sudden melancholy in her heart. Stupidly, part of her had thought if she went to the Lake District with her aunt and uncle, there might be a reason to stop in Aunt Gardiner\u2019s home county of Derbyshire. Elizabeth could never call upon Mr. Darcy at his home, not after spurning his affections, but stranger things did . . . Determined to stop her flight of fancy before it spiraled out of control, Elizabeth explained to Jane.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLydia is a flirt. Unchecked, she will ruin us all.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jane calmly sat down on the edge of their bed. Ever the peacemaker, she attempted to soften Elizabeth\u2019s harsh critique of their youngest sister.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShe is spirited. And with the right guidance\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe means to send her alone!\u201d Elizabeth interjected and Jane gasped. Spying an ally, Elizabeth pressed her case. \u201cSee? Even you agree. So I am writing to our aunt and uncle and turning down their invitation\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut you were so looking forward to going!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elizabeth shrugged, purposely ignoring the nagging tugs of pain on her heart. \u201cIt is no matter. I shall go to Brighton, and you can go to the Lake District.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jane shook her head and leaned back away from her commanding sister. \u201cPlease, no, I am done travelling. Send Kitty. Or Mary.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJane, he is not going to come back,\u201d Elizabeth said softly, and both girls suddenly remained quiet. Only they knew the private details of each other\u2019s dealings with Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWrite your letter and tell them to write back to me,\u201d Jane said, diplomatically. \u201cBut I do not wish to travel, I am tired. But if they invite me, I shall go and fill your place, for their sake.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Jane left, and Elizabeth trusted her to continue to make excuses for her downstairs as she finished her letter, she considered her eldest sister\u2019s words. Kitty had been the most upset by Lydia\u2019s invitation, but Mary was the next in line by precedence.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suddenly, inspiration sparked and she dipped her pen once more into the ink.<\/span><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I humbly suggest you send an invitation to both my sisters Mary and Catherine as my replacement. Mary\u2019s quiet will help soothe the children and Kitty\u2019s lack of travel will provide the sense of marvel you so enjoy when you\u2019ve introduced Jane and me to new experiences.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I dearly wish I was able to go with you this summer, but I shall put on my bravest face and follow Lydia to Brighton. If uncle agrees with my aims, perhaps he could send a letter to my father in support of the scheme. I am afraid my mother may not like that I am spoiling the fun of her youngest daughter, but I truly feel I must protect my family.<\/span><\/i><\/p><p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u00a0<\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Loving Niece,<\/span><\/i><\/p><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elizabeth Grace Bennet\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finished with one letter, she set it aside to dry and began to pen another. This one was to Colonel Forster and his wife, from the perspective of her father. In this missive, she wrote that he was grateful for the invitation of his youngest daughter, but added the stipulation that for her to accept such favor, one of her sisters must accompany her. Elizabeth listed her name and finally began to breathe more easily.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She would never win the affections of Mr. Darcy again, but she could aspire to raise her family above his censor. Though it hurt to accept her family\u2019s shortcomings, she felt relieved that she possessed a small amount of power to remedy them.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When at last she felt the letters were dry, she collected them to confront her father. If he did not accept her plan to keep their family from ruin, she would have to tell her mother what truly happened between Jane and Mr. Bingley from Mr. Darcy\u2019s interference. In her she could count on an ally even if her father remained unmoved.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-vwgeihj elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"vwgeihj\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>You&#8217;ve been reading <i>For the Love of a Bennet<br \/><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-hicuziy elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"hicuziy\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;gradient&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-mwdsbpf\" data-id=\"mwdsbpf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-521a243 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"521a243\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elizabethannwest.com\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/for-the-love-of-a-bennet-ociwlxbbz8lig0exwxhsw59r5tzz1k63m60yqyx2fo.jpg\" title=\"for the love of a bennet\" alt=\"for the love of a bennet\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-tgyeejl elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"tgyeejl\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><i>For the Love of a Bennet<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">a Pride and Prejudice novel variation<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 1.625rem; background-color: transparent; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Release Date: 2\/28\/2020<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">stand alone novel<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-uwugwnl\" data-id=\"uwugwnl\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-wurbwit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"wurbwit\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When Elizabeth Bennet&#8217;s father dismisses her concerns about her sister Lydia going to Brighton, she has just the solution.
