The Price of Pride

A Pride & Prejudice Variation

De: Abigail Reynolds

Narrado por: Elizabeth Klett

In love with his brother's betrothed...

As far as Fitzwilliam Darcy is concerned, the only good thing to come of Elizabeth Bennet’s bitter refusal of his heart and his hand was his new resolve to prove himself a better man. He’d done it, too, by closing the painful distance between himself and his estranged younger brother, Drew. And now Drew is newly engaged to be married…to Elizabeth Bennet.

Family duty forces Darcy to support the engagement, especially since even the smallest hint of disapproval could ruin the brothers’ hard-won reconciliation. But how can he bear to watch his brother marry the woman he loves? To see her in Drew’s arms, bearing Drew’s children, and forever out of his reach?

An Accidental Compromise...

Elizabeth has no choice but to accept an engagement to handsome Drew Darcy. He’s amiable, educated, and respectable, and if it weren’t for his last name, she wouldn’t even mind the idea. But to marry the brother of the gentleman she’d so coldly rejected only months before? Especially now that she realizes her feelings for him are far from sisterly. How can she marry Drew while longing for his brother? But the cost of breaking her engagement would be ruination, and with it, the loss of any hope of a life with Darcy.

Trapped by loyalty, love, and propriety, there is no way out. But old family secrets haunt the two Darcy brothers. Could those secrets, when brought out in the open, change everything?

This intensely emotional variation on Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice will make you fall in love with Elizabeth and Darcy all over again.

Enjoyed the story line

Enjoy the book. It kept me waiting to find out what would happen next. No dull periods I was always waiting to hear how each new person will fit in the story. It was a surprise.
All the love scenes were done tastefully.
Waiting for the next listen.

Genius plot

Another great P&P variation by Abigail Reynolds. Clever and original plot with good doses of angst. The story and characters are well developed . However that last 1/3 -1/4 of the story was rushed and not as skillfully executed as the first 2/3 of the story.

Love Abigail Reynolds' books

Reading Abigail's books started a love of Pride and Prejudice variations. It remains to this day! I hope she keeps writing for many more years😏

Absolutely adored this book.

This was a great story as always from Abigail Reynolds. I have been a fan of hers since 2004. Love listening to Elizabeth Klett as she is very skilled at narrating. Highly recommend this book to a Jane Austen fan fiction lover.

Favorite author Anne favorite story!

Love this P&P variation, the ones who get in the way the most of ODC’s love are themselves. The villain is pride and the resolution is love, just as in the original story.
