About this listen
When secrets are revealed and a family agenda works against him, can Fitzwilliam Darcy recover his damaged spirits and find happiness?
Following his disastrous proposal to Elizabeth Bennet, Fitzwilliam Darcy returns to London from Kent, broken-hearted and dejected. One bright spot penetrates his sea of despair: His sister, Georgiana, has finally recovered her spirits from the grievous events at Ramsgate the previous summer. She has forged a new friendship with Miss Hester Drake, a lady who appears to be an ideal friend. In fact, Lady Matlock believes Miss Drake is Darcy’s perfect match.
Upon Elizabeth’s arrival at the Gardiners’ home from Kent, she finds that her sister Jane remains despondent over her abandonment by Mr. Bingley. But Elizabeth has information that might bring them together. She convinces her uncle Gardiner to write a letter to Mr. Bingley, providing key facts supplied to her by Mr. Darcy.
When Bingley discovers that his friend and sisters colluded to keep Jane’s presence in London from him, how will he respond? Given the chance, will Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth overcome their past misunderstandings? What will Darcy do when his beloved sister becomes a hindrance towards winning the lady he loves?

On to the story-line itself; I thought the development and structure of the story was entricate, detailing a long and amazing story of the rocky courtship of the future Mrs Darcy and Fitzwilliam, what I loved the most, was the fact that it displayed the good and bad of a strong relationship, the human elements of doubt and guilt and all the actions and consequences that come with it. I like that there's a sense of realism and humanity to the relationship that shows that no matter what era, humans and our feelings don't change.
If I have anything to say, it's that I felt sad that Mr Darcy's cousin, the Viscount, were introduced later in the book, I would have loved to have seen more of him, they came off as charismatic and charming. It already provided an interesting dynamic into the relationship between Darcy's feelings and fears regarding Miss Bennett and how his cousin influenced this, would have been amazing to see a little more.
The best part for me was the conniving Miss Drake getting the most polite but brutal striping down by Lady Matlock. Damn, I love a good comeuppance.
What can I say, I really, really loved this. It was such a treat to listen to and though it's the first one I've ever listened to, I feel 100% like I hit the jackpot in terms of quality and story-telling for my first time experiencing an audio-book. Would definitely recommend this to any Proide and Prejudice fan who loves retelling of one of English literatures most famous couples.
Another beautiful Pride & Prejudice story.
