Publisher's Summary

The Netherfield ball brings about many changes for the population of Meryton, and more so for the female residents of Longbourn. 

Mr. Bingley’s departure leaves the eldest Jane Bennet heartbroken, whilst Mr. Collins’s proposal induces Miss Elizabeth to make a hasty escape. During her flight, she happens upon Mr. Darcy, a gentleman she despises. A moment of solitude in the woods leads to rather improper behavior, and the couple departs with the promise they will tell no one about their minor indiscretion. 

When their secret is finally uncovered, marriage becomes the only solution to saving Elizabeth from social disgrace. Her other grudges against Mr. Darcy are amplified by resentment and the prospect of spending her life with a man she can never respect.

Nonetheless, the marriage takes place, forcing the young couple to deal with their pride and prejudices as husband and wife. But will they succeed in overcoming lies, misunderstandings, and their own errors to finally find love?

Note: Originally posted online, almost 20 years ago, this regency tale of redemption narrates the struggles of two people, their differences, and their rocky start.

Great Presentation.

I love listening to the characters come alive with Stevie! Her Elizabeth and Darcy voices are fantastic. And as much as I like reading the book, I love listening to the audio too, and to hear how each of the characters present themselves. Thanks Belen, thanks Stevie 😊
