Elizabeth, though she originally gives credence to Mr. Wickham’s words, soon learns how mistaken she is when Mr. Darcy unexpectedly opens himself to her, informing her of the potential threat his former friend poses. Elizabeth believes Mr. Darcy’s account and resolves to avoid Mr. Wickham at all costs.
Little does Elizabeth know that Mr. Wickham has chosen the ball at Netherfield Park as the venue where he will obtain his vengeance. Summoning her courage, Elizabeth must stand firm to protect herself from his machinations, with help from Mr. Darcy and her father. For Mr. Darcy does admire her, a notion Elizabeth might not have allowed only days before, and that admiration may become her salvation. And her means of future happiness.
Danger at the Netherfield Ball is a novella of approximately 41,000 words.
Jann Rowland is a Canadian, born and bred. Other than a two-year span in which he lived in Japan, he has been a resident of the Great White North his entire life, though he professes to still hate the winters.
Though Jann did not start writing until his mid-twenties, writing has grown from a hobby to an all-consuming passion. His interests as a child were almost exclusively centered on the exotic fantasy worlds of Tolkien and Eddings, among a host of others. As an adult, his interests have grown to include historical fiction and romance, with a particular focus on the works of Jane Austen.
When Jann is not writing, he enjoys rooting for his favorite sports teams. He is also a master musician (in his own mind) who enjoys playing piano and singing as well as moonlighting as the choir director in his church’s congregation.
Jann lives in Alberta with his wife of more than twenty years, two grown sons, and one young daughter. He is convinced that whatever hair he has left will be entirely gone by the time his little girl hits her teenage years. Sadly, though he has told his daughter repeatedly that she is not allowed to grow up, she continues to ignore him.
