Immensely Delightful, Engaging Story

It’s been decades since I read Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice”, but I do remember the tension between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy. Ms. Kincaid has written a captivating story that sustains interest throughout its development. She cleverly maintains the tension between Elizabeth and Darcy without overdoing it and while developing their growing attraction. It’s an enormously fun read, and I greatly look forward to listening to more of her books.

I loved this story!

This is one of my favorite Pride and Prejudice stories. I wasn't sure if I was going to like all the wartime involvement but I was quickly drawn in. So much so that I finished the book in one day and was sad when it came to an end. The icing on the cake was Stevie' Zimmerman as narrator. She's my favorite!

C'était magnifique!!! 😍 😚

Another wonderful book by Victoria Kincaid. The storyline in this book is quite unique and I really enjoyed it. The tenderness that Mr Darcy expresses with Elizabeth is quite moving and humbling.
Stevie Zimmerman, as always, brings the story to life.

Sweet story

This is a very sweet Pride and Prejudice variation. Darcy comes to Longbourne to try to convince Elizabeth that he loves her and that they should marry. When he arrives, he is told that Elizabeth was killed in an explosion of the ship on which she was a passenger near France. Broken hearted, Darcy goes to France to avenge her death only to find her alive with amnesia.
He tells her that he is her husband and that they must escape back to England. France and England are at war and getting back to England is dangerous. The story is about their perilous journey and their pretend relationship. Very sweet story and also exciting. The narration is excellent.

Great story line......horrible narration!

I was so excited to listen to this book until the narrator took on different voices for the characters. She made Darcy sound like he had a bad case of the flu and was losing his voice and she made him sound so deadpan and lacking emotion even when he declared love for Elizabeth
. I had to work really hard to overlook the voice she gave Darcy and try and concentrate on the story. It was so awful. She had a pleasing voice when she read normally,but I would not listen to another book read by her. The story line was a good one and I would definitely recommend the “book” but would not recommend the audible version.

a lovely alternative

A lovely alternative story line. I truly enjoyed this version of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.
