Pride Before a Fall: A Variation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice

De: Mary Smythe

Narrado por: Stevie Zimmerman

To think that Mr. Darcy considers himself in love with me!

Elizabeth Bennet is horrified when, during a walk in Netherfield’s gardens with her sister Jane, she witnesses Mr. Darcy take a fall from his horse. Rushing to his aid, she is bewildered when he–seeming quite out of his wits–declares himself to her. Deciding the proposal was the product of a confused mind, she decides to disregard it.

Fitzwilliam Darcy had already dismissed any thoughts of an alliance with the enchanting Miss Elizabeth Bennet. When he learns of his addled declaration, however, he decides that his accident was a most fortunate one, revealing the true desires of his heart over more prudent objections. Alas, the object of his affections is less ready to accede, however, and so he finds he must win her as a proper suitor should.

Moved by Darcy’s sincerity and persistence, Elizabeth agrees to allow him the chance to court her properly before giving her final answer to his proposal. Darcy sets out to prove his lasting devotion and persuade Elizabeth they will be happy together. With various antagonists standing in the way of their happily ever after, it will prove to be no easy task!

Pride Before a Fall is a lighthearted, humor-filled Pride and Prejudice variation.

Delightful

A lovely romance that made me smile, narrated with perfection by the incomparable Stevie Zimmerman.

Not Bad

Too wordy, like a student who must write a 1,000 word composition but has little to say. The plot is not intriguing but has some originality. Same with the characters. I wouldn't pay to read this, and I don't think I did.

Loved it

A great story. I really liked his first proposal :) and the narrator did a great job as usual. Loved it. Great Jaff

Fun plot!

Lots of funny bits. Good character development. A favorite! Have re-listened several times now.

Calm and low low angst romance

The initial proposal was definitely unique, and the surprises along the way made this light-hearted story an easy and fun read.
