Fitzwilliam Darcy, the Second Earl of Pemberley, has everything a gentleman could desire—except peace of mind. His rebellious sister keeps him at his wit’s end, and his friends believe he needs a capable, wide-hipped wife to restore order. Darcy, however, would sooner herd sheep to market than set foot in a ballroom.
When Darcy meets Elizabeth Bennet, an unassuming young woman, he mistakes her for a spinster’s companion—but with a little encouragement from her wise Aunt Magdalene, Elizabeth begins to unravel Darcy’s guarded heart. But their path to love is far from smooth.
A mad dash to Gretna Green by Elizabeth’s sister Lydia and her fiancé sets off a series of chaotic events, and when Lydia goes missing, Darcy and Elizabeth must chase her down in Kent. Along the way, they uncover a mystery involving a questionable heir, while Elizabeth’s mother is horrified by rumours of madness in Darcy’s family.
Tempers flare, sheep abound, and suitors scramble in this witty, heartwarming tale. Can love survive such tumult, or will Aunt Magdalene’s wisdom steer them through the storm? This Pride and Prejudice variation promises laughter, lunacy, and love in equal measure.
Be warned—the story is filled with scheming siblings, Shakespearean antics, and a hapless young George Wickham.
