Summary
When twenty-two-year-old Charlotte Heywood accepts an au pair position in Martha’s Vineyard, she’s looking for summer adventure before starting her teaching career. She’s not prepared for Xander Colbourne—thirty-two, divorced, devastatingly attractive, and determined to maintain professional distance despite the tension crackling between them from the moment they meet.
Xander knows hiring Charlotte is a mistake. She’s too young, too vibrant, too everything he’s been trying not to want since his marriage imploded. But his daughter Leo needs her warmth and enthusiasm, so he tells himself he can control his attraction...A multichapter modern AU that unfolds across a beautiful summer - it is mostly drafted and will be 15 chapters long. Hope you enjoy.

A Cottage Near Lambton by GreenRibbon

Summary
When Mr Bennet dies suddenly, Longbourn passes to Mr Collins — and the Bennet ladies themselves with the new master arriving to take possession. Grief gives way to fear, and Mrs Bennet's hopes of remaining at Longbourn crumble under the quiet certainty that they can no longer call it home.
With no son to inherit and no proposal forthcoming, the family faces disgrace, separation, and poverty—until an unexpected offer arrives from Mrs Gardiner: a modest cottage near Lambton in Derbyshire, where they might begin again.
Uprooted from everything familiar, Elizabeth enters a new world of northern hills, new neighbours, and a certain gentleman she meets quite by chance—one who knows nothing of her circumstances, and whose reserve hides a heart she never expected to understand.
This is a story of loss, resilience, and renewal—of sisters who refuse to be parted, a mother undone by fear, and a heroine who must rebuild her life before she can discover love.
Sometimes, the future begins only after we let go of home.

Summary
When Elizabeth Bennet receives word of Lydia’s scandal while visiting Derbyshire, her world begins to unravel. A death in the family soon follows, and with it, the weight of duty grows heavier than ever. Now living in London with her relatives, far from all she once knew, Elizabeth must navigate grief, social expectations, and an unexpected proposal.
She is willing to do whatever it takes to protect those she loves, but at what cost? Can love still bloom when honor demands sacrifice?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth is no longer the spirited girl we first met—grief, loss, and the burden of responsibility have altered her. And yet, even in her silence, her will to protect those she loves remains unbroken.
This is a tale of emotional survival, redemption, and the quiet power of enduring love.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. I hope you’ll find in this version of Elizabeth and Darcy something both familiar and new.

Obstacles & Obligations by mselizabethsquire

Summary
What if it was Elizabeth's father who had died five years prior to the start of Pride & Prejudice and George Darcy still lived? How might this have changed the lives, plans and choices of our favourite characters? In this imagining Darcy and Elizabeth meet earlier and are quickly drawn to one another, however, the obstacles between them and a happy ending are many and they must consider whether their obligations to their families, their homes and those who depend on them will keep them apart.
