Summary
“Mr Darcy, I am eager to hear your explanation for the fact that quite a few people believe we are engaged.”
It starts with a bit of well-meant advice. Colonel Fitzwilliam suggests to his cousin Darcy that, before he proposes to Elizabeth Bennet in Kent, perhaps he ought to discuss his plans with their families first.
What neither man could have predicted however was that Lord Matlock would write the news to his sister, or that Viscount Saye would overhear and tell his friends, or that his friends might slip a little and let their friends know as well. The news spreads just as quickly through Hertfordshire once Mrs Bennet opens the express Mr Bennet receives from Mr Darcy, and in a matter of days, it seems like everyone knows that Mr Darcy has proposed marriage to Elizabeth Bennet.
Everyone, that is, except Elizabeth herself.
Her refusal is quick and definite - until matters of reputation, hers as well as Jane’s, are considered. Then Mr Darcy makes another offer: summer at Pemberley so that Jane can be reunited with Mr Bingley and so that he can prove to Elizabeth he is not what she thinks of him. Falling in love with him is naturally impossible...but once she knows the man he truly is, will she be able to help herself?

Good story but spoiled by narration
Nearly gave up as the narration was so poor. Robotic at times with incorrect pronunciation. Story was good though a bit twee in places. Not the best I’ve heard.

Poor narration
Australian accent and very little distinction between the voices. The story is not as enjoyable as other of the author's books.

Enjoyable story
This was a good Pride and Prejudice variation. The narrator didn’t work for me so well, but it didn’t detract from the story too much. I’d probably rate this book as a solid 4 compared to all genres, but in the regency/historic/Pride and Prejudice variation genre world it’s far better than most, and deserves more than 4.

Well done!! Highly recommend!
One of my favorite variations! Amy D’Orazio‘a ability to tell P&P in new and exciting ways is amazing! I’ve listened to almost every book of hers available through Audible and cannot wait for more! Loved the originality of this story and the ties back to the original P&P with key quotes used differently throughout. Charming and great!
I’d have to agree with a few others, that the narration wasn’t great. I struggled a bit at the beginning and it was hard to tell the difference between female voices and to adjust to Darcy’s voice. I’m glad I didn’t let this stop me from finishing the story! I highly recommend!
