About this listen
Mr. Darcy’s proposal is rejected
But a hero is born
Elizabeth Bennet was entirely surprised when Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy proposed marriage to her. He was more surprised when Elizabeth forcefully rejected him. Colonel Fitzwilliam, caught in the middle, fuels her considerable self-doubt. Had she been wrong about the rude and snobbish Mr. Darcy?
Jane is shaken by events of the past, and the scales fall from her eyes, revealing to her a world filled with evil. Her anger toward Bingley pushes them apart. Can Bingley’s best efforts overcome poor odds or has Jane moved on for good?
Wickham remains on the loose, ready to take advantage of more women, but The League won’t let that continue. Darcy and Elizabeth are asked to deceive those around them for a good cause. It is one last opportunity for Darcy, but will it be enough? And what is The League of the Golden Daffodil...?
The Expanded Edition adds 4 additional short stories that continue the adventures of The League of the Golden Daffodil.
This is a sweet and clean, low angst Pride and Prejudice variation where all of the Bennet sisters have happy endings, with a satisfying epilogue.

This story starts off in Kent with Darcy‘s disastrous proposal and within a short time Darcy and Col Fitzwilliam’s world and reality is turned upside down. A plan is formed to remove Wickham so he can no longer endanger young ladies. This plan includes Elizabeth and Darcy in a courtship, yep, right after his disastrous proposal and her refusal. Sit back and see how the plan evolves and what additional characters are brought in to make the plan successful. Because this is the expanded addition, we are able to get a few very short extra stories on other adventures. This was a fun but serious story and one I will gladly read or listen to again.
A surprising Lady C & Anne!
