What happens to the happily ever after when the ever after has already happened? A spirited courtship, indeed! Jane Austen's much adored Pride and Prejudice is transfigured in this regency adaptation. That fickle friend Fate intervenes when an unexpected event threatens the happily ever after of literature's favorite love story.
The gentlemen from Netherfield have left, winter is upon the land, and after a horrifying carriage accident, Elizabeth Bennet finds her spirit transported as if by magic into Mr. Darcy's London home. Paranormally tethered to the disagreeable man, it doesn't help that he believes she is a phantasm of his love-struck mind and not the real Elizabeth.
Somehow, they must learn to trust, learn to love, and learn to bring Elizabeth back to her earthly form before it is too late.

Darcy is seeing Lizzie when she is not actually there, as though in his dreams, while he is awake. There must be a reason, or is he losing his reason?
It’s a good story as we wait to see if he will figure it out. Will he and Lizzie figure it out together, or will his family have him committed?
Brady Smith has a perfect voice for Darcy, with that marvelous baritone. For your listening pleasure, however, slow the speed to 0.80 as he is rushing through this one and the words are worth hearing. This occasionally leads to longer pauses, but the overall effect is better.

As reality begins to set in, Elizabeth realizes that her surroundings and situation are not a dream at all and Mr. Darcy is not an idealized figment of her imagination. She is trapped in a ghost-like state, physically tethered by some invisible force to the man himself, and wherever he goes, she must follow. As for Darcy, he initially enjoys this private vision of the woman he already loves beyond reason, but once it becomes clear she is more than a dream, he concludes that he must be delusional and tries to rid himself of Elizabeth's apparition.
That's how the book begins, and like everything KaraLynne Mackrory sets her pen to, the story is an absolutely delightful and engrossing variation on the world of Pride and Prejudice. Brady Smith does a wonderful job of narration. He has a beautiful voice and there is always clarity for who is speaking.
There are several scenes in this story so sweet and lovely and original that I can heartily recommend it as one of my favorites in the JAFF genre. I put this one off for a long time because the supernatural variations are not always my cup of tea, but I should have known better given how good all of Mackrory's stories are.
This one is very low angst, which I prefer. I dislike stories that torture people endlessly with misunderstandings that make no sense or abusive behavior or unfair scenarios that substitute for actual story. Mackrory never indulges in those things, and Haunting Mr. Darcy has a very well-considered plot with characters all behaving in understandable and rational ways within the somewhat supernatural premise. The resolution is well-done; the character development is subtle and top-notch; and the premise is an absolute chef's kiss. So fun. Well worth a credit.
Sidenote (or is it an end note?): If after reading the premise for this one, you just think you'd prefer something more realistic, I can also recommend Blinded By Prejudice from the same author. It is my favorite of hers by a long shot, and that's saying something as I have enjoyed every story she's published for us and wait anxiously each year to see if she's given us another.
