About this listen
Miss Maria Lucas, after jilting her fiance, has traveled to Pemberley for the Christmas season. She hopes her visit to childhood friends Kitty and Lizzy will ease the discomfort she's felt at home after disappointing her parents' plans for her marriage. But she could not marry the man they chose - there is only one man she can give her heart to, a man she believes she will never see again.
Mr. Denny arrives at Pemberley, not a very welcome guest to Mr. Darcy. But, as a friend of Darcy's new brother-in-law, Sir Camden, Darcy opens his home to Denny. Soon, Denny finds himself opening to new feelings for the lovely Miss Maria Lucas, and he acts to make this Christmastide one of new beginnings. As Denny shows the party at Pemberley his true nature, Maria hides some of her truths from Denny. Forgiveness and happiness dance within reach - can they claim their partners by 12th Night?
Misunderstood is a light, sweet Christmastide tale, the fourth in the Amazon Regency bestselling Love at Pemberley series, Pride and Prejudice novellas.

“Love at first sight” is a laughable concept in the considered opinion of Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam and never occurs in real life—certainly not in the life of an experienced soldier. In fact, until he observes the smitten nature of his cousin Fitzwilliam Darcy, he doubts that fervent love exists. Marriage, after all, is a matter of money, social standing, and property.

Intelligent, pragmatic, and anxious to escape the shame of spinsterhood, Charlotte chose this life, an inevitable one so socially acceptable that its quietness threatens to overwhelm her. Then she makes the acquaintance of Mr. Travis, a local farmer and tenant of Lady Catherine.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 9
Colonel Fitzwilliam should have been happy facing retirement. No more Napoleon, no more tromping the Continent, and his distant cousin had unexpectedly left him an estate. What was more, two of his favorite people, Darcy and Elizabeth, were travelling with him to visit his new home. But the colonel wasn’t happy, not when he was forced to watch Darcy exchanging enamored glances with his wife. No, he wanted to pitch his cousin out the window. It didn’t help when Darcy kept lecturing him on the joys of wedded life - as if women like Elizabeth Darcy grew on every tree.

When Fitzwilliam Darcy makes an impetuous offer of marriage to Miss Elizabeth Bennet, he is convinced they have as good a chance as any for a harmonious life together. That is, until an overheard conversation changes everything, and Darcy realizes he is now joined in perpetuity to a woman who loathes the very sight of him. Elizabeth Bennet's expectations for matrimonial accord were never very high, having accepted Mr. Darcy's proposal in a fit of pique, not love. Still, she is determined to make the best of her situation. But life at Pemberley is not at all what she imagined.

The narrator was awesome!
Book 4! I think this is the end of this series. WAH!!!!!!
The story follows Maria Lucas who has just broken off her engagement because she couldn't get herself to marry a man she didn't fully love. Her heart has been stuck with one fellow who barely even knew she existed. That man is Mr. Denny. He was once friends with Wickham and Darcy does not trust the man. However, Sir Camden is also Denny's friend so Darcy reluctantly opens up his home to this man to give him a chance to prove he is not like Wickham. It is Christmas time is it not? With the Christmas season underway, Denny starts realizing that Maria may be the one he was looking for to give him the love he needs. Will Maria's wish come true?
This was super cute. Maria is a silly girl and I don't know why she tried to keep her previous engagement a secret. Just communicate girl! Tell him the whys! Sighs.
But I liked Denny and I'm glad he realized Maria was the one for him. They need each other. They are perfect.
I am sad this is the end of the series....for now. Who knows? Maybe we'll get more? Look at me being forever hopeful. I just don't want this to end. The author is really good at making this feel like an Austen and bringing these characters to life especially the side characters who deserve some spotlight and redemption.
The narrator was awesome...as per normal. She is great especially with both the men and women.
Overall, a great end to a good series. I think this was one of my favorites even though I wanted to shake some sense into Maria! I'll stamp this with 5 stars.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
