Elizabeth Bennet’s Inheritance

A Pride and Prejudice Variation Christian Regency Romance

De: Laraba Kendig

Narrado por: Harry Frost

Elizabeth Bennet inherits a stunning fortune. Mr. Darcy left Hertfordshire to escape his attraction to her—will her sudden wealth pull them together or drive them further apart?

February of 1812 brings startling news to Longbourn; a distant relation has left Elizabeth an astonishing fortune. She is overwhelmed by a multitude of suitors in pursuit of her wealth but is determined to never marry a man who only loves her money.

Jane Bennet is devastated that Mr. Bingley fled Netherfield and abandoned their budding romance. Will his apologies and renewed attention be enough, or will Colonel Fitzwilliam win Jane’s heart?

Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, the master of Pemberley, sought to elude his fascination with Elizabeth but soon discovers that he is hopelessly in love with her, and he despairs when he learns that she despises him.

Elizabeth once found Mr. Darcy to be the most insufferable of gentlemen...could he now be the perfect man for her?

This is a sweet and clean, low-angst Pride and Prejudice variation where all of the Bennet sisters have happy endings.

Fun twist on a classic

I really thought I wouldn’t like it. When the main character is a woman I prefer that the narrator be a woman as well but the narrator was quite good and I got over my prejudice rather quickly. It was a fun what if type of book and I loved the Epilogues at the end. They wrapped up everything so well!

Wonderful!

I love that Laraba puts her characters in right relationship to
Our God!
He is after all, author and finisher of our faith and lives.

Heiress Elizabeth

This is an enjoyable twist on P&P, with Eliz and Darcy soon on equal footing. Most characters personalities are true to canon, and there are some improvements on journeys and who ends up with whom. I like how Jane is stronger in this version and ends up with her own fairy tale ending as does Lizzie and Darcy. The book author does a wonderful job of tying loose ends. Nice job.

Left Curious….

I’m curious about the conversation between Col. Fitzwillam and Elizabeth Bennet at the ball. Fitzwilliam was saying something to Elizabeth about Darcy, then suddenly his sentence is cut off. I am surprised by this…. That it wasn’t caught during editing. This takes place at the end of chapter 21- and then goes on to chapter 23. So, what all did he say? What did all listeners miss?

A bit too much religious references for me, and this seems to be an ongoing theme with this author in her other books.

That said, I do like the story and have listened to it multiple times. Harry Frost is seriously amazing , as usual.

Lovely Story, Lovely Narration!

I’ve listened to hundreds of P&P Variations and this one is easily at the top. Great narration, great story. No one is suddenly completely contrary to who their character is, just a great reimagining!
