Summary
John Thornton crosses to Havre in April 1854 to investigate why the price of raw cotton is so high. He has an unexpected meeting and helps a young woman out of a predicament. Returning to Milton, he learns that his tutor, and friend, Richard Hale, has died and Margaret Hale will leave Milton. His good deed comes back to haunt his reputation. Will Miss Hale hear of it, and what will she think? Meanwhile, Margaret Hale wrestles with the shame of the lie she told to protect her brother. When she becomes Mr Bell’s heiress, she has an opportunity to choose her future path. A variety of unexpected encounters and the consequences of social stigma, shame and regret on the choices of John Thornton, Margaret Hale and Emily, Mr Peggotty’s niece, are explored in this non-canon story of North & South with borrowings from David Copperfield (Charles Dickens) with reflections on Mansfield Park (Jane Austen).

Summary
"I had been so miserable, ever since you fell in love with Cynthia and then left for Africa. I wrote to you never expecting that you could ever return the affection and esteem that I felt for you; I knew that you looked on me only as a sister, as you had always done. But I think that I loved you ever since you first comforted me, long ago, when you found me crying over my father's marriage."

Summary
A chance encounter with a rugged carpenter at eleven years of age leaves Miss Margaret Hale with a peculiar sense of male beauty. This feeling lies dormant until she sees the tall, angry Master of Marlborough Mills crawl out from under a broken loom amidst the snowy cotton fluff floating above his workroom floor.
Mr. Thornton, however, having been the constant objective of every unwed female in Milton society since ascending to ownership of his own mill, is unimpressed with what he feels are the blatant machinations of a determined flirt.
As her feelings for him grow, so does his distaste...

Summary
When Mr. Charles Bingley rode into Hertfordshire to acquaint himself with Netherfield Park it was on a purely accidental recommendation. Bingley was the sort of open, easy young man whom people would not scruple to share their opinions with, and the solicitor who took it upon himself to advocate for Netherfield could certainly not be blamed for seeing a very desirable tenant in him. Bingley was at that time not yet of age two years and unmarried, but he had the sort of good-humoured and generous character that must recommend him to almost anybody.
[A retelling of P&P from the perspectives of Fitzwilliam Darcy and Charles Bingley.]
