Starch & Strategy

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Would Lizzy Bennet be friends with Anne Elliot? Is Caroline Bingley redeemable? Ought we to save Charlotte Lucas from Mr. Collins and his boiled potatoes? If you answered yes, read on! In the "Sweet Regency Saga," the Elliot family from Persuasion drops into the world of Pride and Prejudice, creating a tangle of new loves, new friendships, and unexpected consequences! While townspeople would rather one of their own Bennet girls got Mr. Bingley or Mr. Darcy, they are all agog to see if the eldest and most beautiful Miss Elliot might win one of them. She is certainly on the hunt. Poor Anne Elliot only hopes to be left in peace, but it is not easy when her old friend Charles Musgrove comes to town to propose to her. She doesn't love him as he deserves, and while he might have turned next to her sister Mary--he cannot. For Mary is besotted with the questionable officer, George Wickham! And Elizabeth Bennet is on a strategic mission to ensure a happy ending for her best friend, Charlotte Lucas, who has a singular shining chance with the advent of these visitors! Mr. Darcy is entranced with Lizzy despite himself, but he isn't quite ready to embrace the idea--not unless he can overcome his own starch and reserve. Starch and Strategy is perfect for readers who enjoy romantic, no-spice variations on Austen classics, like Death Comes to Pemberley and The Other Bennet Sister. Duration - 7h 11m.
