Review:
During the winter Jane spends in London a devastating illness spreads through Hertfordshire, claiming the life of one of the youngest Bennet sisters and leaving Elizabeth (who had been responsible for nursing her) physically weakened. It is this fragile Elizabeth that Darcy meets in Hunsford.

One of the things I like most about this story is how the events in Hertfordshire affect all the characters involved. Elizabeth, though burdened by illness and grief, undergoes a process of self-realization that requires no letter. Her weakened condition draws Darcy's protective nature, completely obliterating his objections to acting upon his feelings. Mrs. Bennet, overwrought by grief, blames Elizabeth for what has happened, while her husband can do nothing to dissuade her. The remaining Bennet sisters rise to the occasion, becoming better persons in their sorrow.

Though there are some minor things that bother me in the course of the story (a couple of rather modern turns of phrase come to mind), all in all this an interesting fic
