About this listen
Please Note: This is a short story.
Miss Anne de Bourgh is the son her father always wanted, except for one rather large detail. Still, her being a girl doesn’t stop her from hunting, shooting, riding, and fencing as well as her cousins, and when her older cousin Henry wrongs her, Anne ropes Darcy and Richard into a scheme to exact revenge. But Anne is about to learn that even her father, who has always encouraged her in all her pursuits, thinks she’s gone too far this time, and his punishment will be dire indeed. That’s right, it’s time for Anne to meet her greatest adversary . . . Mrs. Jenkinson. The Adventures of Miss Anne de Bourgh of Rosings is a short story prequel to Mr. Darcy’s Bookshop. Enjoy!

Elizabeth Bennet loathes insufferable Mr. Darcy. When a series of mishaps repeatedly throws them into each other’s company—first with her unconscious at Netherfield, then him injured at Rosings—Elizabeth begins to see a different side of the proud man she thought she knew. This tender, low-angst Regency variation of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice proves that pride does indeed come before a fall…and that, in this case, love always comes after.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 27
Miss Caroline Bingley has long been a thorn in the side of Fitzwilliam Darcy's friendship with Charles Bingley; the visit to Netherfield Park to help Bingley learn the craft of an estate manager has all the potential for disaster. But Darcy will not shirk, for his friendship with Bingley outweighs his distaste for the man's sister. In his defense, Darcy enlists his manservant, a man equally committed to ensure Miss Bingley will not become his master's wife.

Anne de Bourgh as a young girl
A delightful short story that focuses on a tomboyish Anne de Bourgh and her cousins, Fitzwilliam Darcy and Richard Fitzwilliam as young teenagers who are all motherless and being raised by their fathers. It seems Anne needs a lesson in comportment and becoming a lady.
Summer Hanford tells a sweet tale here as a prequel to Mr. Darcy’s bookshop, which I also highly recommend.
