    Summary

    What if . . . Mrs. Gardiner's Lambton relations had been a little more well-to-do and what if she had stronger and longer ties to them and to Derbyshire? In this variation Elizabeth begins to spend summers with the Gardiners in Derbyshire at a fairly young age. As a result she develops her own ties to that part of the world and its people, including the Darcy's of Pemberley.

    Summary

    Elizabeth tours Pemberley with the Gardiners a year early, while the Darcys are away at Ramsgate. She is intrigued by the housekeeper's glowing praise of a man who is highly respected by his servants and tenants, and a doting guardian to his much younger sister, not to mention so handsome in his portrait. But when she meets him in person two months later in Hertfordshire, he doesn't quite match Mrs Reynolds' description.

    Summary

    Penelope is twelve when she starts seeing colors differently. When she realizes that not only can Colin see the change, but he's the cause of her new ability, they tumble into an intimacy neither are prepared for. Growing up with the love of her life as a foregone conclusion is not the easiest path, especially since resisting him becomes increasingly difficult and no matter how much she seems to age, she's still too young.

    The more they fall in love, the more wrapped up in each other they become and Penelope starts to wonder how far it can all go.
