For her plan to work, Fitzwilliam Darcy has to overcome his pride and propose to Elizabeth Bennet a second time, although neither is a part of the other’s circle. Undeterred, Grace does her best to unite the couple by securing a position for Elizabeth as Darcy’s goddaughter’s governess.Will Grace’s help prove to be a blessing or a curse when Elizabeth’s position is put in peril through no fault of her own?You’ll find the answer in “An Angel In Her Pocket.”
