It has been two long months since the double wedding of Jane and Elizabeth Bennet. All Caroline Bingley has been able to do is wallow in her own self-pity. Not only has she lost Fitzwilliam Darcy to a person she considers most unsuitable, but her brother Charles as well. No longer is she the center of attention, if anything, she is now cast into the shadows like an old dress suddenly out of fashion. With her thirtieth birthday fast approaching, society will permanently place her into the unforgivable category of unmarriageable. Unfortunately, rumors of her often sour disposition and spiteful nature are quickly displacing any former reputation as one of the most accomplished women in England. This is more than Caroline can bear. The only problem is what to do about it?
