About this listen
Here I am, surrounded by heiresses without so much as a murmur from my heart
MR FITZWILLIAM DARCY'S FAMILY has decided it is time for him to select a wife and marry. To that end, Pemberley is suddenly inundated with eligible young ladies vying for his time and attention. Disinterested in the notion, Mr Darcy’s attention is on his myriad other troubles. He has a London journalist whose attention has suddenly has turned towards him with unsavoury and false rumours, and lives with a wounded Colonel Fitzwilliam whose sanity has been called into question. To add to that he finds himself surprisingly and suddenly captivated by one fine-eyed young lady who is visiting Pemberley.
ELIZABETH BENNET HAS NO INTEREST IN MARRYING—ever. Hard life lessons have taught her that she can only rely upon herself. To that end, she earns a tidy sum as the secret author of a popular gossip column in a London paper, Mr Pennywithers Reports—and Mr Pennywithers has been tasked with learning the truth about the enigmatic Fitzwilliam Darcy. An unexpected invitation to go to Pemberley provides her with just the opportunity she needs…provided she can keep her true identity concealed.
IT'S NO BED OF ROSES—one bachelor is up against surprising alliances, a bevy of mean girls, rumours, gossip and a multitude of hidden agendas. Can it all be untangled in time for true love to prevail or will scandal defeat them all?

Elizabeth is desperate to be independent and not burden the Gardners. Teaching doesn't work out but another option presents itself.
Elizabeth finds herself writing a Society gossip column called Mr Pennywither's Reports. In the persona of an aging valet, she combines gossipy stories with wit, humour and a gentleness not found in more vituperative publications.
Fitzwilliam Darcy is an honourable young man, burdened with inheriting the vast Pemberley estate in his early twenties. He is responsible for his much younger sister, Georgiana.
He also must shelter his Cousin Colonel Fitzwilliam, who has been brought low by the physical and mental impacts of battle.
Decent, hardworking and appearing rather dull. It is a shock to suddenly find himself the focus of the London gossips and not in a good way. Referred to as Derbyshire’s Dastard, he is painted as a mysterious batchelor, having illicit affairs and hiding illegal activities.
To add to his joys, his illustrious family are pushing for him to choose a bride and beget an heir.
A house party is arranged at Pemberley and suitable ladies of Society are invited.
Elizabeth Bennet is invited to the gathering and hopes to learn the truth behind the gossip.
Mr Pennywither's identity must remain secret, but Elizabeth hopes to set the record straight about Fitzwilliam Darcy.
Unfortunately, despite a great write up, Darcy is furious at the invasion of privacy.
Things get complicated when Darcy and Elizabeth are close, but he is determined to sue Mr Pennywither into oblivion!
