Many years have passed since the dramatic events of Pride and Prejudice. In The Cousins of Pemberley series we follow a new generation of heroines - cousins with lives as different and interesting as those enjoyed by their mothers. Catherine Collins, a very ordinary young woman - plain, quiet, often overlooked but possessing a reputation for having great common sense. Or so her distant cousin Elizabeth Darcy believes when she recommends her as governess for little Matilda Courtney. Catherine travels to Northumberland, full of good intentions to do her best and be a credit to the family. But appearances and reputations can be deceptive, and Robert and Martin Courtney will soon learn exactly what type of girl Elizabeth has sent them.
