After: A Pride & Prejudice Continuation

In this variation, E. Bradshaw explores what happens when Darcy discovers that his cousin and closest confidant Richard is also in love with his wife Elizabeth.
‘Darcy clenched his jaw and spoke this time through gritted teeth.
“How long?” he asked with laboured patience.
“How long, what?”
“How long have you been in love with Elizabeth?”
Whatever Richard had been expecting, or even fearing that Darcy might say, he had not for one moment expected that. He had not expected such a bald-faced, abrupt, horrendous question as that.’
The story starts on the evening of Georgiana’s wedding and is told firstly from Richard’s point of view as he tries to deal with the awful feelings of unrequited love. But then as tragedy strikes their lives, it follows both Richard and Elizabeth as they each struggle to adjust and go on with their lives.
‘After’ is a tale of friendship and passion; it explores tragic loss and finding new love, and E. Bradshaw hopes that readers will not be too offended by the twists and turns in this variation!
‘After’ is a long read at over 200,000 words and contains sex scenes.
