Book blurb:

A sequel to Jane Austenā€™s Pride and Prejudice.

Seven years after Elizabeth Bennett married Fitzwilliam Darcy, they are still deeply in love, with two small children. But paradise is showing cracks now that Darcyā€™s aged housekeeper has died and Elizabeth must take up her duties. Itā€™s more than one woman, even one as capable as Elizabeth, can manage.

Her sister Kitty, with Elizabeth and Janeā€™s help and a heroic effort on Kittyā€™s part, has outgrown her silly youth and matured into a sensible young womanā€”who, being sensible, spends as much time away from her parents and visiting her sisters as possible. Darcyā€™s sister Georgiana, with perhaps more influence from Elizabeth than is good for her, has become a confident, independent woman who is nevertheless ripe for romance. Charlotte Collins, newly widowed, is searching for a way out of the household of her husbandā€™s crabbed patron, Lady Catherine, that doesnā€™t involve returning to her parentsā€™ house.

Elizabeth sees a way to restore order to Pemberley and give herself a chance to to breathe: she offers Kitty a job as housekeeper of the estate, and Charlotte a job as governess of her adored children.

With these four women under one roof, chaos and the unexpected are inevitable. Both Kitty and Georgiana meet and begin falling in love with honorable, interesting men, neither of whom are gentlemen and therefore not considered eligible matches for them. Charlotte has the opposite problem: a childhood acquaintance who is now a Lord has become fixated on her and begins diligently wooing her, when all she wants is a quiet life and a chance to recover from eight years of marriage to a man she never loved.

When Elizabeth and Darcy learn of their sistersā€™ budding romances, each has the same reaction: delight at their sister-in-lawā€™s choice and outrage at that of their sister. Now throw a ball into the mix, with Elizabethā€™s mother bringing up forbidden topics from the past and her father hiding from the noise, Jane and Bingley attempting to calm the waters, Elizabeth trying to set up all three of the younger women, and Charlotteā€™s Lord pursuing her all over the dance floorā€”and an explosion is sure to happen.

This charming romance will delight all lovers of Jane Austenā€™s masterpiece who have ever wondered, ā€œWhat happened next?ā€
