Summary

Darcy is visiting his friend Bingley in Hertfordshire and decides to bring his sister for a time. While escaping the attentions of Miss Bingley, Miss Darcy meets Elizabeth Bennet and the two form a fast friendship.

Friendship leads to a steady correspondence which leads to an invitation to visit Miss Darcy in London that winter. Elizabeth accepts—unbeknownst to Mr. Darcy.

When he arrives home from visiting relations to find Elizabeth Bennet staying in his townhouse as his sister's guest, he is thrown into a tumult of feelings he had hoped to avoid.

How could he forget her if she was staying in his house? How could he turn his attention to another lady if every time he came home, he was met with her bright eyes? It was insupportable!

Little does he know the lady is far from longing for his attention and can barely stand his presence.

Excellent narrator and very well written story.
I like the way Elizabeth and Darcy kept being put together. They also have a very satisfying first kiss. Would highly recommend this story.

Such a pleasure to listen to
