About this listen

Effie and Hope Thatcher grew up knowing that their grandmother found the last good man. Heartbreak and disappointment were as familiar in Thatcher house as estrogen and town gossip. Hope’s unexpected pregnancy announcement has twenty-three year old Effie realizing that she’s the only woman in their all-female house that hasn’t even dared to find love. With Hope’s beloved under scrutiny and the arrival of a surly safety inspector in Effie’s orbit, the lives of the Thatcher women are turned upside down as they question everything they thought they knew about how disappointing men could be. Fear encounters fate, independence confronts traditional family structures, and wistfulness challenges commitment as misconceptions and presumptions lead to heartache and emotional rifts.

In this reimagining of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice light-hearted contemporary romance is mixed with the earnestness of family dynamics to tell a story about intricate family bonds, the romance of a small town, and the insecurities that arise when everything you’ve ever wanted is yours for the taking.
