A Pride and Prejudice retelling set around the turn of the 21st century in the sleepy south.
Here is a song to set the scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gh7R5zuIJI
It was actually filmed in the town that I grew up in and captures the feeling and nostalgia that comes from living in that kind of sleepy southern town.
And a playlist that captures the general vibe of the setting and time period: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzo8ckv0bFAzj3_hYeZhNNm8_0mrvJItx

Ever since she could walk, Elodie Bennet had expectations set upon her, as many other women did. As the second eldest, she was meant to care for her younger sisters and fulfill her duties without complaint.

[THIS STORY IS COMPLETE] ********** Elisabeth 'Beth' Bennett wasn't born in the same circle as the other girls at Netherfield Academy, but her mother's advantageous third marriage has allowed her to enjoy their world. Now she's at the end of her education and is looking forward to what lies beyond. That is, if she can make it to the end of the term in one piece.

Among them are Charlie Bingley, a cheerful boy with a soft spot for Beth's best friend, Jenny. His companion William Darcy isn't at all pleased with the situation, or with Beth for that matter.
