Summary

A tale of intrigue and inheritance, meddling and manipulation, sisterhood and self-improvement.

When Lady Catherine de Bourgh learns of Mr. Darcy’s proposal to Elizabeth Bennet, her wrath sets in motion a series of events at Hunsford Parsonage, which embroil Darcy and Elizabeth in a family fracas that grows more complicated daily.

The shades of Rosings Park are soon polluted by the shocking transformation of its new mistress and her guests, as well as secrets of the past and schemes for the future.

Appearances and alliances shift amidst the chaos wrought by a well-intentioned house party, and Darcy and Elizabeth must finally face their feelings for one another despite mounting obstacles and misunderstandings of every kind.

Set chiefly in Kent and spanning the short space of just a month, this stand-alone variation begins the morning after Mr. Darcy's failed proposal at Hunsford. From there, chaos quickly erupts and the lives of three strong young women tangle together in a day-by-day journey of growth, sisterhood, and ultimately romance, in the wake of tragedy.

enjoyable variation

I enjoyed this story line. I wasn't sure that I would, Anne hasn't been a main character in any other book I've read and being that she has always been portrayed as a weak personality I doubted she could hold the story but I was very pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed it .

Very intriguing story let down by narration

I have a lot of these Austen fan fics and they’re great for zero demand background whilst working… except this one! The story would probably be one of the best but the narrator is awful, far too posh and plummy, it is off putting. Luckily I haven’t come across her before ! What a shame

Warm and Amusing❣️

Enjoyable listen with lots of twists, turns and guffaws. Some interesting new characters with surprising pairings. Ann is endearing, cheeky and amusing, I do like when authors give her a personality. Overall a good listen.
