What to expect
Pemberley Presents...
Lady Catherine de Bourgh has invited herself to Pemberley, intent upon bringing about an engagement between her daughter Anne and Colonel Fitzwilliam. But her ladyship has failed to take into account the remarkable improvement in her daughter's health and spirits since the arrival of her new tutor, the charismatic Mr Asquith.
Meanwhile, Colonel Fitzwilliam is becoming more enchanted by the widowed Celia Sheffield and is perturbed to learn that her fortune is being contested by an individual in Jamaica - from whence Mr Asquith also hails.
When the obsequious Mr Collins shares grave rumours concerning Mr Asquith’s character, further suspicions are raised...and Lady Catherine demands answers!
A sparkling continuation of Pride and Prejudice perfect for fans of Julia Quinn, Eloisa James and Mary Balogh.
