About this listen
Darkness, in many forms, must be conquered to emerge into the light and embrace one’s happily ever after.
Fitzwilliam Darcy. Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam.
Two cousins, closer than brothers.
One finds love despite his inner demons; the other resists love because of them.
Elizabeth Bennet. Kitty Bennet.
Two sisters, strengthened by adversity.
One willingly yields to love; the other pridefully misinterprets it.
An epic saga steeped in intrigue and gift-wrapped in romance, Doubt Not, Cousin chronicles the trials and tribulations of three extraordinary families during England’s Regency era.…
But who is the girl with the violet eyes?
**This book contains some violence and self-harm, none of which involves much-loved characters.**

P&P meets the Three Musketeers meets the Godfather
I have read close to a hundred P&P variations and this is one of the best so far. A steam train of event after event. Great character development and interesting, rather big changes to the originaI plotline. I skipped the few violent parts. If you are looking for a sweet regency romance or a story focused strongly on E&D this is not it.

An epic tale of love over generations
Audio review: Listening to this amazing story just added to its vivacity, Samuel’s narration brought this wonderful tale to life and brought colour and depth to the characters. I will enjoy listening to this audiobook again and again. If you want an epic tale, told over generations, full of intrigue and adventure and love then you will adore this audiobook.
Original review: First this is no ordinary Pride and Prejudice variation, this debut novel is also not your typical romance. It is a tale of unfailing loyalty of brotherhood and sisterhood. Pain, loss, love, kindness, protectiveness and revenge, this book has it all. The intrigue and mysteries of the characters are woven together over generations to give you the full reflection of how the deeds of the past can haunt the descendants of the future.
This story follows different characters paths from birth to adulthood and we get to see a prequel of stories that explain why certain key players act the way they do. Throughout the grand tale its the little scenes of love and pain that makes this story so special; Darcy with his mother, two young boys finding support only from each other, Mr Bennet when he meets the new Mrs Gardiner, Kitty and the Colonel’s instant understanding of each other, the growing love and respect between Darcy and Elizabeth. As well as some beautiful and funny scenes between the children and their parents that we rarely get to see in variations. There are some violent scenes in this book but I felt they were only included as was necessary to improve our understanding of the characters. You can be reassured that no main characters are maliciously hurt in this book.
Barry’s sense of humour comes through clearly and lightens the heavy load of some of the story lines. The clever plots and dedication to research shows throughout the story and strengthens the picture as it flows through my mind when reading, like watching a film. This story grabbed hold of my head and my heart and didn’t let go! It stays rent free in my brain now. I won’t ever forget the journey of Colonel Fitzwilliam and Kitty, Darcy and Elizabeth, Mr Hurst and Mr Bennet. It’s an epic tale not to be missed! Also, if you enjoy an epilogue prepare to be blown away by how it all gets pulled together at the end.
I am eagerly awaiting Barry’s next offering in this genre! He will be a new favourite and one click author for me.

An amazing tale that kept me riveted to the end.
The story is magnificent but this book is quite a highbrow & somes a hard listen. Absolutely nothing like the usual sweet P&P variations. Lots of characters, at times hard to follow with a plethora of twists & turns. I was was kept riveted but it also felt like my brain had to be in gear the whole book.
The story leads up to a huge scandal but to be honest, I would if liked more nuisance regarding how the villains came to be & the their path into dastardly
underworld.

A very different JAFF
The most unusual JAFF yet. Brutality, spies, exceptional abilities and a happily married Mr and Mrs Bennet are just some of the departures from the usual P & P spin offs. It's dark and compelling.

Thrilling❣️
I’ve never read or listened to a variation like it before. Intriguing, thrilling and endearing.
