What if....

The last man in the world she could be prevailed upon to marry...is her husband?

In Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet tells the proud Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy that she wouldn't marry him if he were the last man in the world.

But what if she never said the words? What if circumstances conspired to make her accept Darcy the first time he proposes?

In this installment of Abigail Reynolds's acclaimed Pride and Prejudice Variations, Elizabeth agrees to marry Darcy against her better judgment, setting off a chain of events that nearly brings disaster to them both....

Just love books from Abigail Reynolds. She is witty and writes in a clever way just like Jane Austen. Highly recommend this book.

Another great read

If you could sum up Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy in three words, what would they be?

loving
ignorant
romantic

Who was your favorite character and why?

It has to be Darcy because I'm totally besotted with him. He's strong, thoughtful, loving and caring. He's far too 'proper and aloof' at first but then learns he is not the centre of the universe , just slightly off centre, and becomes lovable and appealing.

What about Rachel E. Hurley’s performance did you like?

she has an easy voice to listen to. it's at just the right pitch and her tone and pronounciation is just right.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Elizabeth contemplated suicide i was moved but I also wanted to shake her. That was too selfish for Elizabeth even though she tried to argue she was being selfless.
Devoting her time to Darcy in his illness was also moving as was his amnesia to her attention throughout his illness. Sometimes the good old stiff upper lip is far too frustrating.

Any additional comments?

Easy to read, very enjoyable for all P&P fans who like to read variations in the 'lives' of these wonderful characters.

frustratingly 'proper' but romantic and tender too

I'm not gonna lie, I hated the beginning. that was NOT my Mr. Darcy at all and I don't care what story you're telling. but it ended well enough and I'm glad I stuck around to the end even though I was very much considering not doing so.

What made the experience of listening to Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed hearing an Austen like alternative-version of Pride and Prejudice.

Any additional comments?

I wish there wasn't quite so much angst, but it all comes right in the end and we get our happily ever after! I'll be reading/listening to more of Ms. Reynolds books!

If you like Pride and Prejudice-you'll enjoy this!

Very sweet ending with a score of misunderstandings to navigate. So very much a story of the time to be ruined by a witnessed kiss.

Loved

A new point of of view, but fascinating non the less. Beautifully written and beautifully read!

Wonderful Rendition

I’ve listened to this again and again. I can’t find another book by this narrator, but she’s amazing!

I love their rich characters. Yeah, it’s a steamy novel, but there’s something truly captured carefully about love and togetherness and vulnerability and the constellation of those aspects in these beloved characters.

Wonderful novel. 🥹

So good!

Too many unlikely misunderstandings with very little story or intrigue. No interesting characters or clever dialogue that is expected with ODC. They were constantly at crossroads. Not much chemistry. Glad it is over.

Elizabeth is compromised by Darcy and they must marry. Darcy is happy about this but Elizabeth hates him and is miserable. They have a lot to overcome.

Good night story

When FD proposes, he gives EB no chance to refuse because he kisses her, is observed, she is compromised, and they must marry. He is ecstatic, she tries to make the best of things as the events carry her unwillingly but inexorably into marriage with a man she does not know and does not love. She decides to make the best of things, and is cautious because she has been warned by Wickham of Darcy's temper. She, like many women of her time, is extremely conscious of a husband's power over his wife and children, and measures the risks to her sisters if there is any resulting scandal, and the benefits to her family of having contracted a much sought-after bachelor. She tries to please FD but the bouyant spirits he fell in love with are oppressed by her efforts to adjust to her situation, and eventually during a serious quarrel he discovers that she married him because he compromised her. He is devastated and sad, they continually miscommunicate and misunderstand one another, they both become despondent over the alienation from one another, then he is injured and she discovers love for him. Although it takes a while for ODC to really start to communicate, once they understand one another the story is very tender and comes to a very satisfying conclusion. Because this story starts after Hunsford, there's not a lot of sparkling EB dialogue here; rather, this is more a thoughtful depiction of EB trying to control her natural high spirits and unruly tongue, following her aunt's advice, and FD learning to unbend and open up. If you've ever truly suffered from unrequited love or disappointed hopes, this story will resonate.. I would rate this story an R due to graphic bedroom scenes, especially toward the end, between husband and wife.

The narration is superlative; the narrator's voice, inflection, accent -- everything was a pleasure. There are some JAFF audiobooks I simply won't purchase because I can't stand the narrator.
