About this listen
Pride, prejudice, and the price of independence.
When Mr. Bennet falls gravely ill, Elizabeth makes the unthinkable choice—she enters trade to support her family by opening a bookshop in Meryton. Society is scandalized, her mother is mortified, but Elizabeth finds unexpected fulfillment in her newfound independence.
Then Fitzwilliam Darcy returns to Netherfield.
The proud master of Pemberley is strangely drawn to the shopkeeper Elizabeth has become, finding her business acumen as captivating as her fine eyes. As they engage in spirited discussions over literature and ledgers, both must confront their deepest assumptions about duty, independence, and what makes a suitable match.
In this imaginative Pride and Prejudice variation, can a gentleman's daughter who has stepped outside the bounds of propriety find common ground with a man bound by tradition? Elizabeth's heart and newfound purpose hang in the balance as she faces her most difficult choice yet.

Mirrors reflect memories that are not her own. And Fitzwilliam Darcy—her former suitor—roams the halls with a gaze hollowed by secrets. What tragedy silenced Pemberley's music? Why does the scent of foxglove cling to Lady Anne’s locked rooms? And why does Darcy speak as if his heart no longer belongs to him? Drawn into a web of suspicion, desire, ...
