Story
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that while a man in possession of a fortune may be in want of a wife, there may be ladies who do not reciprocate.

Such was the lot of five young women near the town of Meryton. Not only had they no fortune, their own father, an absentee parent at best, had not the foresight to put aside a single pound should they not have the opportunity marry. For this sole ...

AI is terrible—so is Elizabeth!
I truly dislike Elizabeth in this story. I t made Darcy look like a good guy. Perhaps if it was read with proper voice inflection it might have made her less shrewish. Would love to hear what others think.

Been here, heard this
This is a very familiar story that I’ve heard done much better. Trapped together due to weather and caught by someone, causing a Compromise. Try any version with a human narrator in order to get correct emotions to match the words.

The Virtual Voice did not equate to the wonderful varying emotions of the story. This book needed a good human voice. Although, I recommend the paperback!

Elizabeth being so unreasonable was annoying. she got bilegerant with him. it wouldn't have hurt her to listen and let him defend himself. He was too patient with her.
