"Someday some lark is gonna spell you with a song. She'll call you with music, and you'll be as good as lost." In the autumn of 1948, young millionaire Will Darcy comes to the sleepy, backwater town of Meryton, South Carolina to visit his best friend, Charles Bingley. When Darcy becomes enchanted by a local beauty with a heavenly voice, his business dealings with Longbourn Farms may close the door to his romantic hopes before they are given a chance to thrive. Still healing from heartbreak, Elizabeth Bennet takes solace in her family, home, and the tight-knit community of Meryton.

Confronting the racial, economic, and social inequalities of the times, Longbourn's Songbird is an imaginative romance inspired by Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice and told through the lens of post-WWII America, a story layered with betrayal and loss, love and letting go.… (más)
A Pride and Prejudice variation set in 1948 South Carolina, and Will Darcy has come to Meryton to eventually buy Longbourn and there he meets Elizabeth Bennet. But the past has made her protect her heart. But who has made her close her heart - when I found this out I just groaned - I would have been happier with the story if someone else could have been picked. But we also have the trials and tribulations of Charlotte, the Bingleys, Collins and Wickham. So can there be a HEA for Darcy and Elizabeth. Enjoyable but a bit overly long. A NetGalley Book ( )
