Haunted by a secret from the past,
will Darcy be forced to relive his worst memory?
Almost thirty years after Fitzwilliam and Elizabeth Darcy encountered Nate Morgan in Jan Hahn’s The Journey, their paths cross once again in New Orleans, where Morgan lives in an elegant plantation he named Belle Lisette.
Set in the Antebellum Era of the American South, this novel sends the Darcys and the Bingleys abroad to help their sons seek their fortunes in the land in which Henry Darcy fell in love during a previous visit. It is there that they discover Morgan who, free from his indenture, has established himself as a prosperous land and business owner.
Hoping never to see the rogue again, Darcy finds that his enemy not only still harbours tender feelings for Elizabeth, but he has two sons, both of whom are attracted to the Darcys’ only daughter, the free-spirited Beth.
Whether or not you have read The Journey, you will find Jan Hahn’s sequel, Belle Lisette, a compelling read on its own filled with simmering secrets, excitement, and romance.
