The Netherfield Ball

A Pride and Prejudice Variation

By: Rosamund Redgrave

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A night that changes everything…

When the Bennet family arrives at Netherfield for what promises to be the ball of the season, Elizabeth dares to hope that Mr. Darcy's recent attentions might lead to something more. But as a violent storm rages and guests start falling desperately ill, the evening transforms from romantic possibility into crisis.

Trapped at Netherfield with the roads impassable, Elizabeth and Jane must set aside thoughts of courtship to become impromptu nurses through the long, anxious night. Yet it is in these irregular circumstances—exhausted, disheveled, stripped of pretense—that Mr. Darcy reveals his truest character, and Elizabeth discovers that second chances sometimes arrive in the most unexpected ways.

By morning, two fevers will break, two gentlemen will find their courage, and two sisters will discover that the most meaningful proposals are not made in ballrooms, but in the quiet moments after the storm has passed.

A sweet and tender Pride and Prejudice variation where love is tested by crisis and proven through care.
