Only wish it had lasted longer!!!

Loved this P&P variation! Excellent story, just wished it had been given more detail and the time to explore more of the relationship between William and Elizabeth and the conflict they faced together. I wish it had been twice as long and included all of the usual characters instead of just mentioning them briefly. I personally can’t get enough of Jennifer Joy’s Darcy and Elizabeth, especially when narrated by Stevie Zimmerman!!!

Stevie does the absolute best job hands down narrating all of the P&P characters’ voices, especially Elizabeth and my personal swoon worthy favorite Mr. Darcy’s deep masculine and very attractive voice!!! I forget that one person is performing the narration of so many distinct characters, she’s incredible! Her Mr. Darcy is by far the best (sexiest) of all the P&P variations, no contest!!! Can’t say enough about this author and narrator!!! Amazing combination!!!

Started great, turned into soap opera crazy drama

I loved the discussions between Elizabeth and Darcy and how they slowly discovered each other. Once they got to Pemberly everything started being super dramatic. Not angsty because there was no doubt things will work out and the problem wasn't between them. It wasn't interesting any more since there was no more character development. Also, they fell in love way too fast and Elizabeth forgave Darcy's lies and omissions quickly.

Reread this book

Really good. I highly recommend this story to a Jane Austen fan fiction lover. The narrator was great as usual.

Good variation

Was a good story. I think the end was done up a bit fast but it was still good. Stevie Zimmerman was amazing as always.

What if Georgiana eloped with Wickham?

As most variations do, this one addresses one of the great “what if’s” in P&P. What if Georgiana eloped with Wickham? With a few weak plot points, this variation is addresses what truly might have been Georgiana’s fate. Darcy and Elizabeth’s story is a bit of a reach. Still, it’s well written and true to the original characters. Shorter timelines always make things less realistic in terms of character arcs. The ending has some Perry Mason-ish cross examination flair. Not a great read but entertaining enough.
Stevie Zimmerman continues as reigning queen of JAFF narration. Wonderful as always.
