Mr. Bingley Takes Charge - The Take Charge Series: A Pride & Prejudice Variation

In the 4th book of the Take Charge series, it is the normally capricious and wishy-washy, disguised as modesty, Charles Bingley's turn to come to the fore.

With events in his life and the guidance of his late father's brother, this version of Mr. Bingley is one with a spine, who does not need Darcy's permission to make decisions. As in canon, he takes the lease on Netherfield Park, but that is where the similarities end.

Mr. Thomas Bennet, spurred on by the shame of his second daughter having to beg him to get off his rear end and take up his paternal duties does so and we find out that his wife is not enamoured with the changes he makes.

Darcy sees our Elizabeth before the assembly, and is captivated by the lady, although he knows not who it is. Will he put his foot in his mouth at the assembly? If he does how will his friend react?

Will Darcy be able to put his pride aside and follow his heart? And how will Bingley react to Miss Bingley and Darcy's attempts to separate him from Jane Bennet?

These questions and others will be answers in this tale.
