Story
This is a story of friendship that defies all odds and survives and flourishes regardless of the impediments that arise. The friendship is born out of an almost tragedy and extreme bravery by one Elizabeth Bennet. In saving the lives of those in peril, she thwarts the designs of one of the villains of this tale and makes an enemy of the person. As in canon, our Anne is sickly. In this variation, it is because she had suffered a bad case of childhood scarlet fever. For the purposes of this story, the disease has seriously weakened her cardiovascular system.

ELIZABETH BENNET is determined that she will put a stop to her mother’s plans to marry off the eldest Bennet daughter to Mr. Collins, the Longbourn heir, but a man that Mr. Bennet considers an annoying dimwit. Hence, Elizabeth disguises herself as Jane and repeats her vows to the supercilious rector as if she is her sister, thereby voiding the nuptials and saving Jane from a life of drudgery. Yet, even the “best laid plans” can often go awry. FITZWILLIAM DARCY is desperate to ...

Story
The Bennett family have lived close to the town of Meryton, in Hertfordshire County, for over two centuries. They have had good times and troubled times, still managing to keep their middle-sized estate, Longbourn, within the family. Thomas Bennett is the current master of Longbourn Estate; He, his wife and their five daughters are barely managing out a decent living, due to his sloven nature, insolence, and indolence. He became such a man after realizing he had married beneath him in the worst way. Franny Bennett, the daughter of a solicitor, became Thomas’s bride, elevating her station ...

Really?
Darcy is either dim witted or doesn't really love Lizzy as much as he says. otherwise why would he leave her alone so many times with crazy villians. It’s just stupid.

Kinda steamy
Lovely story, but not suitable for listening with a young teen as there are graphic descriptions of multiple bedroom encounters.

Started out good
TMI about breast feeding, Darcy freaking out and arguing with Elizabeth concerning her health, feeding the babies yada, yada, yada… All this while we wonder what happened to everyone else in the story. I have noticed that many authors in this genre seem to devote way too much time describing labor and delivery…and now breast feeding! Otherwise, this is a very good story with wonderful aspects different from the original. I cannot read any more books that just fill in around the original. I really love a completely different and creative story far from the original so I don’t have to read about Lydia and Wickham being obnoxious. So thankful the full cast of villains are not all in this story. The writing is very good the VV is riddled with mispronounced words and lack of emotion but this voice is the one I can tolerate most. All in all I enjoyed this one and many other books by this author.

Lifeless and bizarre.
Why, why, why?!?! This sounds like fifth grade writing. Explains too much the computer generated voice is terrible but still more lifelike than the story. I tried to finish it, but after the inconceivable survive of Caroline I gave up. It may be free, but there is still a price to pay, save yourself!

Way too explicit
I wasn't gonna write anything because after all, it was free. But I wasn't going to write about was the hilarious ai mispronunciations.
But I really object to the explicit sex. There ought to be some kind of warning.

Much too long
I really disliked the computer narrative. Ai has no inflection and I can’t tell who is speaking at any given time. Also the story was too long. It could have been 2 books.

Deliciously good!
I really loved this book. I am baffled by the one and only review , which was a negative one, since I enjoyed the book SO much. There is quite a bit going on, with ODC at the center of it all. Poor Elizabeth gets battered around by almost everyone, but she stands tall against it all. Darcy starts out very arrogant, but mellows out considerably thanks to the wonderful Elizabeth Bennet. The only negative is the Virtual Voice narration. If this book had been narrated by Stevie Zimmerman or Harry Frost, it would have been amazing. Thanks Ms. Schertz for this wonderful book.
