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.

On the whole I enjoyed the narrator's speaking voice. The problem is that some of the voices she used for characters (primarily the Countess and the Colonel) were quite distracting. I will own that the excessive R trills for the lady were somewhat entertaining. But the lispy voice given to him was horrid and not at all in line with what I, as a reader, would want associated with him for this story line. Most of the remaining primary characters sounded almost identical. But I do give her kudos for Ann's voice.

A couple of comments on the narrator; a nice voice overall, but resorted to over the top affectations to distinguish one character from another. For example, Colonel Fitzwilliam spoke with a high lispy voice, not what we expect from him at all, and his mother rolled her r’s so hard there were at least 3 r’s for every 1.
The editing needed some help too with some words or sentences being repeated.
