Resumen del Editor

“The engagement between them is of a peculiar kind. From their infancy, they have been intended for each other. It was the favorite wish of his mother.…” (Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice)

Fitzwilliam Darcy was raised to never stray from the path set before him: Ensure the continued prosperity of his estate, Pemberley, protect and educate his sister to become an accomplished woman, and marry the woman his mother chose for him — his cousin Anne de Bourgh. With a letter bearing his late mother’s signature, Darcy presumes his fate is sealed and prepares to wed one he does not love. However, his destiny begins to unravel when he glimpses a pair of fine eyes on a quiet, country road.

Elizabeth Bennet is the second daughter of a respectable, though insignificant gentleman. She is flattered to have captured the attention of a local squire, a childhood friend, and everyone believes her path is secure — until a handsome, rich gentleman arrives at a neighboring estate. Happenstance begets the unlikely pair together, bridging a forbidden love long past a mere friendship.

In A Lie Universally Hidden, two of literature’s most beloved romance characters are destined to marry for fortune and obligation rather than love. How will Darcy and Elizabeth fulfill their true destiny under such circumstances? Shall honor, decorum, prudence — nay, a signed letter from the grave — forbid it?

A Lie Universally Hidden is a Regency Romance suitable for most audiences, teen and up.

Great Variation

This is another great story from Angela Schroder about our favorite couple. I enjoyed the unique story line and the narrator. Elizabeth Grace is fast becoming a favorite of mine. She truly brings the story to life.

Amazing

I loved reading this!!! I usually don’t like reimagined Jane Austen books but this one was amazing and took my breath away!! I wish she would write more!!!! I couldn’t get enough of this.

Fantastic

Great narrator — enjoyed reading Anngela Schroeder’s novel but LOVED hearing it read to me. Elizabeth Grace is a talented voice actress.

I like it even more on audiobook

I read this book when it was released and I enjoyed it a lot and gave it a 4.5 stars out of 5. However, I think the audiobook makes it soo good. I have to say that this is only the second book I listen to and it happens to be the same narrator. I enjoy immensely the voices of this narrator.

Bingley's voice may be quite close to Darcy but he appears very little.

Wonderful JAFF Variation

Elizabeth Grace as always is amazing with the narration of the tale.

Storyline doesn't follow cannon and is quite wonderfully unique.

Quite good!

I adore P&P variations and this one did not disappoint. I recommend this book and this author in general.

Really enjoyed this one.

The narrator was fantastic! I enjoyed this variation and a Darcy that was more strongly tied to duty.

Great twist on P&P and wonderful narrator

I enjoyed the book thoroughly, and REALLY appreciated the narrator. I am often leery to purchase audio books because if the narrator's voice/inflection is bad, no matter how good the book is, I can't finish it. Both the fun twist of a classic and the narration made this a delightful way to spend my weekend! (Kitty's character development was a fun addition to this reimagined classic!)

Great story and performance

Brilliantly narrated by Elizabeth Grace with a performance that really stands out. Well done!

The friendship of ODC that was developed was such a nice change from much of the angst that happens between them in not just the original, but many variations. I just enjoyed it so much. Kitty was great in this book, and even Lydia comes through it nicely, without her or Wickham ever really taking over the story. Well written. I’m off to see if this author has more to entertain me. If not, I hope she’ll write more.

Great book

I really enjoyed this book by a new author to me. It was well written and detailed. The narrator did a great job too. Huge fan of JAFF.
