Quotes by Jan Ashton  (?)

“Your discernment is impressive, Lady Catherine, for while others have made similar observations of my character, you have concluded it so quickly. I am all admiration.”
Jan Ashton, A Hopeless Business: A Pride and Prejudice Variation

“the sun. It shone behind Elizabeth, providing him a shamefully affecting view of her figure under her light walking gown. He turned his eyes to the ground.”
Jan Ashton, A Hopeless Business: A Pride and Prejudice Variation

“Mr Darcy was just as concerned for our horse, and any strain it endured pulling the cart with Mr Collins through the mud. It was quite touching, for he must have known that while I have five daughters, I have but one horse.”
Jan Ashton, A Hopeless Business: A Pride and Prejudice Variation
