    I am really sorry, i really tried searching for that particular novel, but with no success, i found two discussions on amazon about suggestions for scarred heroines, but unfortunately none match your description, i am posting the links for the discussions, see if they are any help:

    Pride and Prejudice (Oxford World's Classics)

    Having set up the central misunderstanding of the novel, Austen then brings in her cast of fascinating secondary characters: Mr. Collins, the sycophantic clergyman who aspires to Lizzy's hand but settles for her best friend, Charlotte, instead; Lady Catherine de Bourgh, Mr. Darcy's insufferably snobbish aunt; and the Gardiners, Jane and Elizabeth's low-born but noble-hearted aunt and uncle. Some of Austen's best comedy comes from mixing and matching these representatives of different classes and economic strata, demonstrating the hypocrisy at the heart of so many social interactions.
