“He is the kind of man, indeed, to whom I should never dare refuse anything which he condescended to ask.” (Mr. Bennet, Pride and Prejudice Volume III, Chapter 17)
It had never occurred to Fitzwilliam Darcy that once he had chosen a bride, her father might dare to refuse his consent. When his dearest, loveliest Elizabeth is taken from him with only a curt note of explanation, he determines that, far from accepting her father’s rejection of his suit, he must instead find her again and make his case. After all, a woman worthy of being pleased is also worth fighting for.
Several months shy of her majority, it is not so simple a thing to defy Mr. Bennet’s will, but Elizabeth, for the sake of her future happiness, must try. With various allies in her corner, as well as foes standing against her, Elizabeth’s courage must rise against all attempts at intimidation. Even from her own, much beloved father.

Fitzwilliam Darcy has had enough—enough of the ton and their speculations, enough of matchmaking mamas and their eager daughters, and enough of his family’s expectations that he will eventually marry his cousin Anne. Craving solitude and peace after discovering his sister with George Wickham in Ramsgate, he accepts an invitation to visit Netherfield Park from his friend Charles Bingley and travels to Hertfordshire, where he hopes Georgiana will recover from her disappointment in relative privacy.

The arrival of two eligible gentlemen at Netherfield Park sends ripples of excitement through nearby Meryton. But Mr Bingley and Mr Darcy are not the only additions to the neighbourhood raising eyebrows. An unremarkable cottage in the woods between Netherfield and Meryton also has new tenants. One of them — a lively little girl with an adventurous spirit, a love of the outdoors, and a past shrouded in mystery — draws the notice of more than one local.

That is, until an overheard conversation changes everything, and Darcy realizes he is now joined in perpetuity to a woman who loathes the very sight of him.

“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.

Historia
Ellie Gardiner has landed her dream job restoring art at the mysterious estate of Pemberley. Once a majestic home in the Derbyshire peaks, the long-abandoned property is in desperate need of help with a crumbling east wing, overgrown gardens, and a house full of possessions belonging to the once wealthy Darcy family. The most bizarre bit, however, is an enormous mirror in the once great ballroom. How does an almost 250-year-old mirror have not one speck of dust nor any sign of age? And why does it not show her reflection?

Historia
For Elizabeth Bennet, Charlotte is the friend who is—annoyingly—always right. Colonel Fitzwilliam is the mischievous brother she never had. And if their convictions that Mr. Darcy is in love with her are correct, he could be the lover she’s always wanted. There’s only one problem—he tried to ruin her favorite sister’s life, and she made an absolute fool of herself in front of him. Can lasting happiness come out of such a beginning? And can a man die from chasing a woman too quick to be caught? Darcy is about to find out.

Fitzwilliam Darcy has had enough—enough of the ton and their speculations, enough of matchmaking mamas and their eager daughters, and enough of his family’s expectations that he will eventually marry his cousin Anne. Craving solitude and peace after discovering his sister with George Wickham in Ramsgate, he accepts an invitation to visit Netherfield Park from his friend Charles Bingley and travels to Hertfordshire, where he hopes Georgiana will recover from her disappointment in relative privacy.

While her sister Jane is ill at Netherfield, Elizabeth overhears the proud Mr Darcy express his admiration of her and her fine eyes. Not sure what to think of his praise after all of their previous disagreements (and more flattered than she wants to admit) Elizabeth responds by teasing him, forcing Darcy to reconsider his opinion of a woman who has truly bewitched him.

Good story
An interesting story, very well wand narrated. I liked the premise that Darcy and Elizabeth were already in love and kept apart by the will of her father. I had no problem with Me Bennet's attitude in this story, it was unlike the original but showed the absolute powers of a father over an underage daughter very well.
Stevie Zimmerman 's narration flawless as usual.

Dare to Refuse Such a Man
Great story. I really didn't like Mr. Bennett's character. But was glad that Mrs. Bennet finally stood up for herself and Lizzie. As always Stevie Zimmerman was great. She is the best narrator.

Unique and refreshing imagination.
I enjoyed this "what if" scenario. It doesn't follow cannon, and I enjoy these types of stories as a change.
Mr. B is ridiculously stubborn, but Mrs. B is crafty. ODC fall in love quickly but need to wait for thier HEA. They have much more page time than I expected. All villians are present however, Collins ... well, he is the major antagonist.
Ms. Zimmerman is wonderful as always, but there is a small production issue near the end which jarred me from the flow of the story. I easily became immersed in the tale again.
After reading some of the reviews I almost passed this variation by. I am so glad I took a chance and used the credit for this low angst account.

Very enjoyable
I finished this in a day. I liked the approach that the author took in regards to Mrs. Bennett and the younger girls. There was a solidarity and a sense of real affection that most variations tend to say exists but never show. Mrs. Bennett especially is given some positive attention and is allowed to shine in a way that still feels true to the character. There are no dramatic misunderstandings between Darcy and Elizabeth since they actually communicate with and have faith in each other.
As always, Stevie Zimmerman gives a perfect performance. She is my favorite narrator.

Bad Mr Bennet
I loved the book. It explores the relationship between Elizabeth and her father when he refuses her engagement to Darcy. It was easy to read, engaging without too much angst.

Pleasant Read
The story itself is good and well thought out. I like the way Smythe portrays the Bennett family. The performance by Zimmerman is excellent as always. There is a spot on the audio though that got missed during editing. In chapter 30 around 7:30 a small blip happens but it’s over in a few seconds and none of the story is missed.

I highly recommend this book to a Jane Austen fan fiction lover. The narrator did a great job too, as usual.

Heavy Heavy Angst
In this version, Mr. Bennett is at his most selfish and stubborn and it creates PROBLEMS. Because I don't currently need anymore problems, this created a problem for me. I ended up popping over to Kindle where the book is on KU and searching various terms like BETROTHED to make sure there actually would be a HEA (there is) and whether or not Mr. Bennett would face some consequences because I hate it when a character is a complete jerk for an extended period and is forgiven on the basis of a weak apology (he does face consequences, and they are appropriate to his actions).
In the end, listening to the book was more than "my nerves" could take, so although I did end up reading about 70% of the book, (I skipped chapters 3-9, which is Elizabeth's and Darcy's courtship prior to his intended first proposal--which he doesn't actually get to do because Mr. Bennett is a jerk) I didn't do it at all in order. I can say it is a clever reimagining and recommend it to readers who are looking for something that elicits nail biting.
Zimmerman's Darcy was a scratchier than normal in places, but otherwise she did her usual strong performance.
A few spoilers as I go into more detail about what you can look forward to in this version.
Lady Catherine is as bad as ever, and Collins is worse (which just makes Mr. Bennet's actions worse), but Mrs. Bennett is on Lizzie's side, and in a manner that successfully foils Mr. Bennett more than once. She is still Mrs. Bennett, (after popping off at Collins for his treatment of Lizzie, she still needs a lie down, smelling salts, three servants and two daughters for her nerves--but she defended Lizzie first) but a better one. (Who also had the sense to know immediately that if her daughter marries Darcy, Collins is no longer necessary for her future happiness and security.) I liked her better in this version.

Great change of character personalities!
I really enjoyed this, it evoked emotions of anger and cheering of the characters personalities that were nit used to. I found it refreshing and still just enough if the original story and line got any fan to recognize. Highly recommend!!!

What a Wonderful Surprise
This book starts off with a series of surprises for JAFF readers, but it results in a wonderful storyline that is fresh, yet familiar.
The first thing that convinced me to give this author, that was new to me, a try was that it was narrated by Stevie Zimmerman. Aside from one minor editing issue in a later chapter, not her fault 😀, listening to this story was, as usual, enhanced by her reading. She has a distinct, believable, voice for each character and her delivery is excellent throughout.
I am adding this to my “favorites” as it was more than worth the credit and will be another I could listen to again.
