Mrs. Bennet fled from Longbourn with her lover and Jane two months after Elizabeth was born, leaving little Elizabeth behind with Mr. Bennet.

Mr. Bennet dedicated his life to raising Elizabeth the best he could. Mr. Bennet had loved Elizabeth dearly from the first time he picked his little girl up and she smiled her baby smile at him, and grabbed at his sideburns. When Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy arrive in the neighborhood, Elizabeth finds herself falling in love with Mr. Darcy. He makes her heart flutter, and he respects her like nobody but her father respects her.

What will happen when Elizabeth’s long departed mother returns to Meryton after being absent for twenty years?

A heartwarming and romantic novel about family, love and forgiveness.

Excellent P & P Var. with best narration duo

I love the change in the story with my 2 favorite narrators! I’ll be listening to this again and again thru the years!

Good writing, good JAFF, great characters.

I haven’t read this particular trope done in this particular way before so it felt original to me and interesting, and even compelling. I thought the drama of Elizabeth’s feelings and reactions when her Mother showed up after eighteen some years of absence was quite real and even valid.

The characters of Mr Bingley and Mr Darcy were accurately portrayed even though the circumstances were different from canon. They were in character.

Mr Bennet was a great gem in this story. The relationship between Elizabeth and her mother and sisters was also interesting to read. The introduction of the villain Wickham was just as creepy as we expect of him. Hisssss.

The entire arc of this book was well done and worth an enthusiastic recommendation.

Slow burn

If you like slow burns, this is the one for you. Especially with Harry and Stevie narrating. Can’t go wrong. Elizabeth had me wanting to box her ears sometimes. Lashing out and behaving like an adolescent. Darcy being noble. Took him a while lol. Mr B is excellent here. No Kitty or Mary here. Quick change Bingley. Nice variation.

Different storyline

I dislike the duo narrations. The female voice always sounds so muffled , thus this listener was constantly adjusting the volume. This is the first audio I’ve listened to and had the same experience.
Elizabeth’s character had moments that were out of character for her…. Her behavior is reckless. More of what you’d see from Austen’s Lydia.

Great book

I really enjoyed this story. A very different type of story. Mr and mrs Bennet are divorced. Jane grew up with her mama and her new husband. Elizabeth grew up with mr Bennet. Great jaff.
