Mrs. Collins' LoverMrs. Collins' Lover by Bronwen Chisholm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This P&P variations begins just after Mr Bennet has recovered from a serious illness, and Mr Collins is about to arrive. These two situations convince Bennet that it must be Elizabeth who marries Collins. Can Elizabeth's strong Christain beliefs help her in a marriage that she cannot love or respect her husband, and the trials that the marriage brings. Or is Darcy her only saviour.
An interesting well-written variation but I would have loved to have read more about the other Bennet daughters, especially Mary, and how they developed over the years in this story.
