About this listen

Does it ever stop raining in Lambton?

Darcy and Bingley depart Netherfield Park, leaving Elizabeth Bennet acutely aware of the monotony of her life. Seeking a reprieve, she volunteers to serve as temporary companion to Mrs. Gardiner’s elderly aunt who lives in Lambton. Nothing turns out as Elizabeth expects, and she is forced to dig deep into her reserves of common sense, humor, and stubborn persistence to prove herself equal to the dreary circumstances.

Initially unaware that Pemberley is only five miles away, Elizabeth crosses paths with Darcy annoyingly often. When the gentleman rescues her from a shocking situation, Elizabeth faces some hard choices, at the same time struggling against the smoldering attraction that can neither be repressed nor fulfilled.

Mr. Darcy, meanwhile, in whose heart a fire has also been lit, is shocked by the lady’s stubborn refusal to accept his help. Alternating between alarm and begrudging admiration, he stands helplessly on the sidelines while she struggles to retain her independence. He, too, must make some hard choices in the end. Will he let her go?

I thoroughly enjoyed this variation and highly recommend. Very different storyline with humour, hardship and very little anx.

A Very Different Variation

I wasn't sure about the plot description of this book but it turned out to be very good. I've read/listened to a LOT of JA variations and this one has some very original elements.
I also liked the device of having shared narration from Darcy and Elizabeth. My only caveat is that the recording quality of the Darcy narrator's dialogue was not as good as the rest - sounded like home recording rather than professional.
Very good story though- just about to look for more by the same author.

Really good original Austen variation

A great story, with Elizabeth learning a lot about running a household whilst seeing Darcy in a different light.
