With a son off at boarding school, and five daughters, Mrs. Bennet should be very pleased with her situation in life. She is wealthy, and her children want for nothing. But she finds herself constantly at odds with her second eldest daughter Elizabeth, who is stubborn and far too witty for Mrs. Bennet's liking. Grey Skies follows the Bennet family in a much better situation than in Pride And Prejudice, and shows how much money can affect one's life.

Meet Elizabeth Bennet: A 25-year old college dropout who has had to devote the last four years working any job she can find to support her disabled dad. Together, father and daughter make it work but life hasn’t been easy. Money is tight and Tom’s health is continuing to deteriorate. When an old friend recommends her the job of a lifetime, Elizabeth has no idea how much her world is about to change. She is about to be thrown into the overwhelming world of one powerful, rich, CEO: William Darcy.

Lizzie Bennet has a fresh Journalism degree, and hopes to be able to leave her crowded home- in particular, her embarrassing mother. But given the way house prices are going, it's the local cafe or pub for any potential boyfriends, and local bookshops for some me-time. Everything starts to change when her lovely sister Jane attracts the eye of a wealthy young bachelor- and, to Lizzie's confusion, she attracts the eye of his friend. Will Darcy is sarky, arrogant and captivating; they struggle to understand each other through a tangle of mistakes, lies and arguments. But when a heartbreakingly reckless decision by 16-year-old Lydia brings the past and her family crashing down, will they be brought closer together... or driven apart forever?
