“Love at first sight” is a laughable concept in the considered opinion of Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam and never occurs in real life—certainly not in the life of an experienced soldier. In fact, until he observes the smitten nature of his cousin Fitzwilliam Darcy, he doubts that fervent love exists. Marriage, after all, is a matter of money, social standing, and property.

Resumen del Editor
"This was absolutely fabulous! It was intelligent and fun while illustrating the depth of the connection between Darcy and Elizabeth and Wentworth and Anne." (Pemberley Darcy, author of A Frankness of Character)
"Part mystery, part adventure—and all heart—This has the feel of a Hornblower epic." (Alice McVeigh, author of Susan: A Jane Austen Prequel)
Two grooms missing at the altar. Darcy and Wentworth kidnapped.
Two great loves tried by separation, battle, and deception.
Set on the stage of Napoleon's 100 Days, relish the mystery, sea chase, and, finally, the satisfying finish as four yearning hearts—desperate to be reunited—draw closer together. Join the heart-stopping chase as Anne Elliot and Elizabeth Bennet search the tattered rooms of a waterfront inn, suffer on board a frigate engaged in a deadly game of naval chess, and then enter the gilded halls of London's preeminent card room—where revenge is riding on one final hand.
Can true love be lost at sea?
The Sailor's Rest is set in the Persuasion timeline of 1815 but leaves in place the age and plot constructs established by Austen in Pride and Prejudice.
Jane Austen's greatest lovers come together to be tested in the crucible of war on the Mediterranean's blue waters and the smoky confines of a prestigious London gambling den.

It is 1780, and 17-year-old Alan Lewrie is a brash, rebellious young libertine. So much so that his callous father believes a bit of naval discipline will turn the boy around. Fresh aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Midshipman Lewrie heads for the war-torn Americas, finding - rather unexpectedly - that he is a born sailor, equally at home with the randy pleasures of the port and the raging battles on the high seas. But in a hail of cannonballs comes a bawdy surprise.

But when his lifelong friend Lady Jane asks for his help, Lenox cannot resist the chance to unravel a mystery. Prudence Smith, one of Jane's former servants, is dead of an apparent suicide. But Lenox suspects something far more sinister: murder, by a rare and deadly poison.

Despite the tragedy that took her parents and all but one of her sisters from her, Elizabeth eventually heals, and she takes up the affairs of the estate with a flair her father never possessed.

Is not the very meaning of love that it surpasses every objection against it? Jilted. Never did Mr. Darcy imagine it could happen to him. But it has, and by Elizabeth Bennet, the woman who first hated and rejected him but then came to love him - he believed - and agree to be his wife. Alas, it is a short-lived, ill-fated romance that ends nearly as soon as it has begun. No reason is given. More than a year since he last saw her - a year of anger, confusion, and despair - he receives an invitation from the Bingleys to a house party at Netherfield.

Stunning drama
When two of our most beloved heroes from Jane Austen are kidnapped and destined for death it’s not only the two men who go through a trial by fire.
It’s heartbreaking and dramatically sweeping. Amazing writing. Thank you Don Jacobson for bringing together my two favorite Austen novels with one of my favorite movies of all time, Master And Commander. No one could have written this like you did.
Benjamin Fife was the perfect narrator for this story.

Austenesque Crossover of Love & High Seas Adventur
An adventure on the high seas for Austen’s top two romance pairs was a source of delicious anticipation. I couldn’t wait to listen in to the talented Don Jacobson’s Persuasion and Pride & Prejudice crossover sequel as told by now familiar and engaging narrator, Benjamin Fife.
The story opens with a chilling gothically-toned prologue from the villain’s perspective and then slips into a story of two gentlemen on the verge of their nuptials getting kidnapped away from the same quayside inn and then waking up in a nightmare situations as pressed sailors aboard a ship captained by a sadistic man eager to administer the whip and make their lives a misery. Meanwhile, their two ladies recruit able-bodied help and take to their trail in a long-game rescue mission.
The actions has good rising and falling between introspective moments, but always the tension draws tighter as the story crescendos to the riveting two-part climax moment involving a danger-fraught sea battle and later a spider-web of a trap for the orchestrator of the troubles.
I loved seeing the camaraderie between Wentworth and Darcy in their shared time of capture just as I was touched by the deep friendship that formed among their ladies, Anne Elliot and Elizabeth Bennet. Further friendships and connections were formed that made the group closer than family.
The author demonstrated a well-researched backdrop of Royal Navy life as well as the grander setting of Regency England. I was satisfyingly immersed in that long ago time.
Speaking of immersion, Benjamin Fife’s narration work made a fab story even richer and deeper for the listener with his voice work of the large group of characters and the exchange of narrators among them, but also a mastery of pacing and the feel of the various scenes.
All in all, The Sailor’s Rest met my expectations and then some. However, I’m not surprised because I’ve long since been a fan of both author and narrator. Those who enjoy well-described situation and getting deep inside the characters with a fabulous drama of romance and action should give this standalone historical fiction a go.

Wonderful!
If you've never picked up a Don Jacobson book, make this one your first.
Beautifully written. Detailed, history fabulously researched. Exciting. A true adventure. Yes, there is the Amor but it flows perfectly and is clean.
I purchased this book on Audible as Don's tales are great for road trips. This particular book, I will purchase in hardback to add to my library.
Benjamin Fife is a fantastic narrator. His voice is mesmerizing. Inflection is perfect. I'm pretty sure I have a book or two with Benjamin's narration. He's one of my favs. I look forward to more of his narratives.

Excellent P&P/Persuasion Crossover
Having first read and enjoyed the ebook version of this novel, the audio version is also excellent. Benjamin Fife’s quality narrating skills made him an ideal choice for this male-centric story.
I was immediately drawn into the story at the Prologue that perfectly sets up the book; then quickly into Chapter 1, the reader witnesses the beginning of a double-kidnapping mystery which leads to an adventurous, gripping and danger-filled sea voyage. The reader is not left without hope, as the friends and families of the kidnapped who love them come together as one to solve a crime, engage in a daring rescue amid a raging war battle on the sea, and eventually bring justice to the primary villain whose devious plot is foiled.
Highly recommend.

Swashbuckling With Darcy and Wentworth!
You can always count on Don Jacobson to thoroughly research his writing projects, and The Sailor’s Rest takes the reader/listener deep into the naval practices of the British Regency time period. He also provides a look into the lives of various people of different classes, from a lowly tavern maid to a young ship’s boy to a Baron’s malevolent heir to a loyal-to-Napoleon French sea captain, and many others. Now, with this fabulous audiobook, Benjamin Fife performs the voices of this plethora of characters, including the sea dog crews of the sailing ships. The entire audiobook is extremely well done and most entertaining. I highly recommend The Sailor’s Rest!

Wentworth and Darcy
Wentworth and Darcy are two of my favorite male characters created by Jane Austen. I knew I had to read this book. Then the audio book came out and I had to have it. The narrator Mr Fife is one of my all time favorites.
This is about a plot to kidnap captain Wentworth those goes awry by Mr Darcy bring taken also due to the lack of an identity by the hired captors. The loved ones of both families including Anne Elliot and Elizabeth Bennet begin a search.
I’m really not a fan of historical sailing and war do this was more of an educational experience. I’ll call it that since it was informative but not interesting to me. The rest of the story was good but love scenes short and a bit lacking for me.

I didn't like this version
There were no tender moments between either couple.
Mostly about in search of the missing men. I love both books equally, but there were moments I wanted to stop and return the audio.
I can say with all assurance I will never listen to this variation again.
