Elizabeth Bennet, attending a London ball at the behest of her aunt, is swept away by the grandeur of it all. When a handsome gentleman asks her to dance, she cannot say no, but by the end of the ball, she realizes that she may have made a grave mistake. Fitzwilliam Darcy, in an effort to escape an arranged marriage, has used a convenient escape—but the young woman who was meant to be his dancing partner at the ball will not be deterred. Convinced that Elizabeth has conspired to steal Fitzwilliam Darcy away from her, Miss Clarissa Howe will do anything to ruin Elizabeth's hopes of ever finding a good match... no matter the cost. Will Elizabeth be able to escape her ire, or will Fitzwilliam Darcy have to atone for his mistake and step in to rescue a young woman he barely knows from Miss Howe's misplaced search for revenge? A Convenient Escape is a sweet and clean Pride and Prejudice Variation that is suitable for all lovers of Jane Austen's romantic classic.
