People are never ready for the impossible. When Mr. Darcy discovered a trespasser in his lands, he imagined the young man to simply be a lost drunk from the village. Never would he have guessed that the man was a brilliant scientist. And the first time traveler in History. Let alone would Mr. Darcy suppose that he himself would become the second man to ever travel through time. Yet, he did. Mr. Darcy accidentally ended up in the twenty-first century. At first, he desired nothing but to return to his beloved Pemberley. However, as he discovers the magical powers of technology and makes the strangest - yet kindest - friends, he wonders if, when the time comes, he will have the strength to return to when he belongs. Especially now, that he would have to leave behind a lovely lady who enchanted him. A lady with a lot of personality and mesmerizing green eyes.
