Publisher's summary

A delay on the road to Ramsgate will change everything…

When his carriage is damaged on the way to surprise his sister with a visit, Mr Darcy is sure the delay is of no consequence. He could have no idea that even then, Mr Wickham was persuading Georgiana Darcy to marry him. The successful elopement will result not just in a highly imprudent marriage, but in icy estrangement between the Darcy siblings - and the alteration of Mr Bingley’s plans to let Netherfield Park.

Three years later, Georgiana Wickham is made a widow by her husband’s folly, and Elizabeth Bennet is left near-penniless by her father’s death. While she seeks work as a lady’s companion, Georgiana seeks a companion warm and witty enough to help her bear up under what she imagines to be her brother’s anger and disapproval. Aghast that Mr Darcy would judge his sister so harshly, Elizabeth does not look forward to meeting such a cruel man…but she soon learns that Mr Darcy is not what he seems.

Friendship and Fortitude is a tale of slow-blossoming love, finding joy in the wake of grief, and the twin blessings of good friends and inner strength. It is best enjoyed by listeners who seek a relatively low-conflict story, a great deal of amusing folly from Mr Collins and Lady Catherine de Bourgh, and a courtship based on mutual respect.

Friendship and fortitude will save Elizabeth from despair…but as a penniless lady’s companion, is love beyond her grasp?

Nicely Done

I previously read the ebook and was delighted to find an audio version on Audible. Miss Savage performs wonderfully, seamlessly transitioning between characters. The low angst and a happily-ever-after for Darcy and Elizabeth make for an excellent listen for those who enjoy a well-crafted story where Georgiana's marriage to Wickham doesn't lead to dire consequences for her or her situation.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
