About this listen

Georgiana Darcy has gone missing. Lizzy Bennet knows just what to do to find her.

‘Tis no secret that Lizzy Bennet has dreams. The uniquely talented daughter of a woman with a dubious reputation, Lizzy knows she must make her own way in a world that shuns her.

Fitzwilliam Darcy carries the stains of his family’s dishonor upon his soul, and only by holding himself to the strictest standards has he reclaimed his place in society.

If his 15-year-old sister cannot be found quickly, her scandal could destroy years of perfect behavior. Lizzy is willing to join the pursuit to get what she wants, but will Darcy be willing to trust her with his secrets? And what will they do when the search for Georgiana reveals what neither expected to find?

This Pride and Prejudice variation is two stories in one book. The first book starts in Ramsgate with the disappearance of Miss Darcy and follows the adventures of Elizabeth Bennet as she seeks to find her. In the second book, our favorite couple has recognized their feelings for one another, but more surprises and challenges still await them at Pemberley.

Darcy falls for a trollop’s daughter…

The premise is absolutely unbelievable. Mrs Bennet is a Harlet (I’m not joking…), Jane is the product of a Lord that kept Mrs Bennet as a mistress and Lizzy is the only legitimate child of Mr Bennet who married Fanny on a whim but left her in Ramsgate when he found out her sordid past.
Mrs Bennet continues to entertain men for money and Lizzy grows up in this type of household and thinks nothing of it.
So now we are supposed to believe that Mr Darcy falls for such a woman? As much as I love an “underdog” storyline, this one is just too far fetched for the period.
If the author had taken this idea 100 years into the future it may have held a little more weight.
The writing also has no depth, the conversations are utterly unbelievable and hold no substance. The characters are bland and one dimensional. There is no chemistry between ODC at all.
I am baffled as to why there are so many good reviews for this book.
As I am reviewing the audio version I need to add that the narrator was fine but there were some glitches in the recording such as repeated sentences.
I couldn’t finish this book, it was too awful.

In short: Save your money and skip this one.

Absorbing story

What a great listen!
Romance and plenty of adventure with a strong female heroine, beautifully portrayed by Llilian Rachel.
