Jane Austen Bedtime Stories

It's really happening - Lydia is going to marry Wickham. And in reflecting on their upcoming marriage, Lizzy realizes that perhaps she was too hasty in rejecting Mr. Darcy. Meanwhile, Mrs. Bennet has finally returned downstairs, and with a little coaxing from Lizzy and Jane, Mr. Bennet will even let Lydia and Wickham visit Longbourn before Wickham relocates to the North. The Bennets all need a good night's rest to prepare themselves for that visit, and this week's story will help you fall into deep and restful sleep as well.
