About this listen

WHEN ELIZABETH BENNET JOURNEYS to Hunsford to visit her friend Charlotte, she hardly expects more than polite conversation and quiet company. Yet her peace shatters the moment Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy appears to have taken an interest in her, and is doing everything to secure her favour. Elizabeth is baffled and indignant—how dare the man who once slighted her at a public assembly suddenly profess such sentiments?

DARCY HAS NEVER FELT MORE TORN. Encouraged by a secret wager struck with his mischievous cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam, he has allowed a mere dare to spur him into declaring affections he had long repressed. Now he stands before Elizabeth—and himself—forced to admit that what began as a reckless gamble has only exposed the depth of his true regard. But how can he convince Elizabeth that her good opinion means more to him than pride, more than propriety, more than even the esteem of his peers?

ELIZABETH’S CONFUSION DEEPENS when she learns of the wager behind Darcy’s words. Infuriated and wounded, she questions everything she thought she knew about the man and his character. As misunderstandings multiply, can Darcy prove that his love transcends the folly that first inspired his confession? Will Elizabeth discover that a heart, though once guarded by prejudice and wounded pride, can be redeemed?

Hearts Under Wager is a clean Regency romance that asks: Can an ill-conceived dare lead to true devotion, or will lingering doubts and wounded feelings forever stand in the way of their happily ever after?
