Publisher's summary

Orphaned at a young age. Rejected by her stepfamily. Shipped off to boarding school. Has Jane finally found her fairy tale as a live-in tutor for the daughter of the infamously moody yet strangely compelling rap artist Edward Richmond, aka “E.R.”?

Maybe Beauty and the Beast. Except she’s no beauty - just plain Jane. And his rock-and-roll lifestyle disturbs and even endangers her. It’s safer following her principles than passion. Besides, he obviously prefers the striking and equally famous Bianca.

Yet Jane finds herself simultaneously attracted and repelled by this reputed “bad boy” who seems oddly determined to win her approval.

Caught up in E.R.’s complicated - and darker than she imagined - world, Jane must find a way forward. But will that drive her away from yet another home?

True to the spirit of love, self-discovery, and mystery in Charlotte Brontë’s classic novel Jane Eyre, this dramatic yet genuine and often surprisingly funny modern retelling, faithfully reimagined chapter by beloved chapter, will captivate fans of the original and unfamiliar listeners of all ages alike.

Fun & Lighthearted

”Fun and lighthearted” are typically not associated with the original book of Jane Eyre, but this modern retelling was just that. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, which I appreciated. A lot of the characters meld together and have similar “best case scenario” outcomes. I think the essence of each character was very different from the original, but the major story points are there. It was amusing, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Unfortunately this audiobook is unedited in some parts and sentences are re-read. Two or three time the author says “Mr. Rochester” instead of the new name of “Mr. Richmond” she’d given the character.

Still definitely a fun listen.

Wonderful Modern Day depiction!

Veronica Cristero did a fabulous job keeping the storyline as close as possible to the original Jane Eyre we all love. The modern characters are well thought out and written to provide great visuals of each individual. I thoroughly enjoyed this version of the book and highly recommend it! I look forward to reading more from Cristero!
