Synopsis
Old friends, new neighbors, awkward flirtations and crowded dances...there's always some gossip and speculation stirring up the little English village of Meryton. And in this countryside whirlwind live the five Bennet sisters, who couldn't be more different from one another. But when prospective marriages, money troubles and the painful mistakes that accompany coming of age shake the foundations of their family, will they grow together or come apart at the seams?
