Cambridge professor Emily Wilde is good at many things: She is the foremost expert on the study of faeries. She is a genius scholar and a meticulous researcher who is writing the world’s first encyclopaedia of faerie lore. But Emily Wilde is not good at people. She could never make small talk at a party—or even get invited to one. And she prefers the company of her books, her dog, Shadow, and the Fair Folk to other people. So when she arrives in the hardscrabble village of Hrafnsvik, Emily has no intention of befriending the gruff townsfolk.

A clever & fun adventure into a magical world
Reviewed: 03-08-23
This book is a complete page turner, I never wanted to turn it off. Em’s adventures are unpredictable and entertaining. You easily fall in love with the characters! Wendell is by far on of my favorite love interests to date, handsome funny and so much more! This book leaves you wanting more without to much of a cliffhanger. I found Em very down to earth and relatable. I would definitely recommend! I cannot wait for the next book!

Great story! Read after watching the show on Netflix. I have to say the book is better. 🥰 Just in case you are reading the series for the first time, skip the epilogues, specifically the second one. It has a spoiler in it.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 82
It had never occurred to Fitzwilliam Darcy that once he had chosen a bride, her father might dare to refuse his consent. When his dearest, loveliest Elizabeth is taken from him with only a curt note of explanation, he determines that, far from accepting her father’s rejection of his suit, he must instead find her again and make his case. After all, a woman worthy of being pleased is also worth fighting for.

Pleasant Read
Reviewed: 07-08-21
The story itself is good and well thought out. I like the way Smythe portrays the Bennett family. The performance by Zimmerman is excellent as always. There is a spot on the audio though that got missed during editing. In chapter 30 around 7:30 a small blip happens but it’s over in a few seconds and none of the story is missed.

England is overrun by dragons of all shapes and sizes. Most people are blissfully unaware of them and the Pendragon Treaty that keeps the peace between human and dragon kind. Only those born with preternatural hearing, like Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet are able to hear and converse with dragonkind.

Great fun story. But In the audio, chapter 11 at 2.35 there is a pause in the audio and it goes on until 2.42. Other then that it’s a fun little story. Worth the credit.

My fiancé picked this book for me after I finished the Outlanders series and I couldn’t find anything to read. Let me say this book is a 10/10 would recommend to a friend. The characters are realistic not perfect people. The author does a wonderful job of unearthing things to you and the main character at the same time. The story catches your attention and does not let it go. It has the thrills of love, adventures, and friendship. The Performance is flawless!

One of the better JA Fan Fictions I have read
Reviewed: 01-22-21
This story is one of my favorites for fan fiction! The story is not only believable but true to JA characters. I like how independent Elizabeth still is. The author does not make her week or off the wall impulsive. How Darcy has normal human faults. Stevie Zimmerman is by far the best female narrator I have heard. This book is worth the cost/credit use.

Stevie Zimmerman always does a great job with the readings. The story itself is so full of true emotion. You truly fell the depth of Elizabeth’s pain. Wonderfully written and has real reactions not just fairly tail happy endings.

Vampire Darcy's Desire takes the greatest literary romance of all time and reinvents it around the hottest publishing genre: vampire romance. No story lends itself better to adaptation. Two lovers try to overcome that which separates them: their pride, their prejudice, Darcy's vampirism, and the evil workings of master vampire George Wickham.
