A Most Attentive Mother
About this ebook
Fitzwilliam Darcy comes to Hertfordshire with his friend Charles Bingley, he anticipates meeting the Bennets, for their new mother is none other than his aunt, Lady Catherine Bennet. The introduction goes poorly, however, as Darcy unwittingly insults her second stepdaughter, angering her ladyship and creating a question of his character in Elizabeth’s mind. Darcy, seeing the worth of the Bennet family, comes to an appreciation for them, including Miss Elizabeth, to whom he makes amends.
As Elizabeth comes to know Mr. Darcy better, she gains insight into his character, and soon each begin to understand that the other will be a perfect partner in life. In this, they have Lady Catherine’s blessing, for the woman loves her new daughters very much. Yet, within ranks of Lady Catherine’s extended family, there are members who do not appreciate her new connections, who have other notions as to their family’s future. Yet Lady Catherine is a woman of fortitude, a woman attentive to all matters within her sphere of influence, and no one will stand in the way of her new daughter’s happiness.

About the author
Jann Rowland is a Canadian, born and bred. Other than a two-year span in which he lived in Japan, he has been a resident of the Great White North his entire life, though he professes to still hate the winters.
Though Jann did not start writing until his mid-twenties, writing has grown from a hobby to an all-consuming passion. His interests as a child were almost exclusively centered on the exotic fantasy worlds of Tolkien and Eddings, among a host of others. As an adult, his interests have grown to include historical fiction and romance, with a particular focus on the works of Jane Austen.
When Jann is not writing, he enjoys rooting for his favorite sports teams. He is also a master musician (in his own mind) who enjoys playing piano and singing as well as moonlighting as the choir director in his church’s congregation.
Jann lives in Alberta with his wife of more than twenty years, two grown sons, and one young daughter. He is convinced that whatever hair he has left will be entirely gone by the time his little girl hits her teenage years. Sadly, though he has told his daughter repeatedly that she is not allowed to grow up, she continues to ignore him.
