    Summary

    At the ungodly hour of nine a.m., there were no customers in Longbourne Book Emporium.

    It was a sort of running joke with customers that the name ‘Emporium’ suggested a large store, when in fact it was tiny, and sometimes felt like it couldn’t house all the books on the shelves.

    Summary

    It’s a tale so perfect that two centuries later, we’re still talking about it: Handsome, rich, reserved guy meets a pretty, middle-class, vibrant girl. They get off on the wrong foot, and keep going wrong until confronting their pride and prejudice forces each to make some changes.

    In this contribution to that classic story, Will Darcy is a wealthy architect helping his happy-go-lucky friend Charlie Bingley convert his new purchase of Netherfield Park into an eco resort and spa. Charlie has fallen for Jane Bennet, the estate agent who sold him the place. That's how Will Darcy first meets Lizzie Bennet, a landscape architect. It...doesn't go great at first. Then again, it’s not about how things start, but how they finish.

    Summary

    Or, the tale of how Lizzy and Darcy lent both hands at Jane and Charles’ housewarming party. Or, Pride and Prejudice in an afternoon.
