About this listen

Someone wants Elizabeth Bennet dead. It’s all Fitzwilliam Darcy’s fault.

Elizabeth Bennet wants the truth from Mr. Darcy. When she follows him from the ballroom to insist upon it, she becomes an unwilling witness to a scandalous scene. And for once, she cannot blame Mr. Darcy for disdaining his company, not even when he departs Netherfield in the middle of the ball.

When Darcy returns to London, he leaves both Miss Elizabeth Bennet and his growing infatuation for her behind--or so he believes. For soon, their paths cross again under the most painful of circumstances.

Elizabeth suddenly finds herself dependent upon Mr. Darcy. With the gradual unveiling of his character, she is surprised by a burgeoning affection for him. Will her heart survive their inevitable parting?

Thrust together out of necessity, Elizabeth and Darcy must discover the culprit responsible for their predicament before they are ruined...or worse.

Fantastic readers performing a wide variety of roles and voices. All from a wonderful P&P variation.

Great book to listen to

I loved this when I read it and now it’s a million times better listening to it. Harry and Elizabeth’s narration was perfect!

Amazing story

A lot happened but there were quieter interactions and family drama mixed in with more nefarious actions.

A great paced story

So much happening in this book! Not many details differ from canon when our story opens, apart from the fact that Mr. Collins has already died, leaving the problematic issue of who is Mr. Bennet's heir. This becomes significant fairly early on in the plot.

We start off at the Netherfield Ball and Darcy and Elizabeth don’t part company at the end of their dance and somewhat contentious conversation. They move to a more private area to carry with this and fairly soon after, Darcy finds himself in company with Bingley and his sister. She literally throws herself at him in an attempted compromise which Darcy deals with in a truly excellent manner. It more or less boils down to “Yes, I'll marry you but you'll spend the rest of your life on a small estate of mine in Scotland and I won’t be living there with you!” Many readers in this genre will know the NSNJ (Not So Nice Jane) acronym but here we have a NSNB (Not So Nice Bingley). I'll leave you good folk reading this review to find out why for yourselves.

Someone is out to get Darcy. He's more or less eschewed female company (leading to speculation about his preferences in that regard) due to a number of his acquaintances trying to get him to marry their already pregnant female relatives. Could one of them be the culprit? Read or listen for yourself to find out!

Elizabeth unwittingly becomes a victim in all of this and ends up being kidnapped, battered and bruised but then able to escape. Trigger warning for physical assault necessary here. She ends up in the trunk of Darcy's carriage and isn’t discovered until London. I won't say any more about the plot, apart from the fact that I loved one of the original characters in this, Colonel Fitzwilliam's older brother Henry.

The audiobook narration is great. Two of my favourite performers take part in a two handed performance; Harry Frost and Elizabeth Grace. Elizabeth Grace has long been one of my favourite female performers in this genre and she doesn’t disappoint here, though I kind of wish she could have taken on some of the narration when it's a female POV instead of just voicing the female characters. Mr. Frost takes on all of the male parts and the narration with all of his usual aplomb and how he keeps all of the different characters' voices straight in his head never ceases to amaze.

Highly recommended.

Not So Nice Bingley and so much more!

When I chose this I wasn't sure about my choice. The plot sounded a little bit "out there". But by the end of the first chapter I was hooked. It's a great story with a particularly good Elizabeth character. Loads of action and suspense, I wasn't sure how it was going to resolve. Happy ending for Jane too. Would recommend this. Shame that not many of the author's books are available on Audible.
The joint narration also worked well.

One of the best P and P variations I've found

Some parts were a little slow & drawn out but all in all a good read which quickened up half way through.

A sweet tale of D&E

The plot is the best thing about this audiobook and the writing is quite good bar annoying Americanisms. The banter is too modern and juvenile and fell flat - there was no sparkle.
it's too long and becomes tedious in places
The female narrator is dreadful. Harry Frost would have done a far better job alone.

A bit flat in the middle
