About this listen

Elizabeth Bennet is living a lie.

She’s known since she was fifteen that she isn't truly a Bennet, but who is she? Are the people and places that appear in her dreams just a sign of her active imagination, or are they memories of her true family? Could the stories she'd told Jane when they were children not be stories at all?

Fitzwilliam Darcy is reliving a nightmare.

He hasn’t dreamed of “Ellie” Windham in years, but after meeting Elizabeth Bennet, he is reminded of the day little Ellie was kidnapped. And now he is left to wonder whether he is drawn to more than her fine eyes. When Darcy realizes that Elizabeth and Ellie might be one and the same, he is anxious to return her to the Windhams, and Elizabeth is no less eager to meet her family. But when the idyllic reunion she longed for goes awry, both Darcy and Elizabeth wonder whether it’s really possible to put a broken family back together again.

Can Darcy help Elizabeth find her place in her first family so she can one day join him in his?

A wonderful story voiced to life

INKM is arguably the best version of the "Elizabeth is not a Bennet" trope. Mel's writing is unparalleled. Her cjoice to habe both Stevie and Harry read it aloud is extraordinary. A 5-star audio now added to a 5-star novella. Very well done, all of you.

A great listen.

Having the 2 best readers in one book was a real treat! Good characters. Mrs Bennett was particularly horrifying.

Unique take on Elizabeth is not a Bennet

Wonderfully crafted, character depth and dialogue is well done. It is heartfelt, sad, a little humor, and happy. Narration amazing, as always expected with Harry Frost and Stevie Zimmerman.

Be prepared to cry, laugh and enjoy this fabulous story

I read this book quite a while ago and it quickly became my favorite. This is an emotional story for all of the characters. And now with the amazingly wonderful and talented narrators Harry Frost and Stevie Zimmerman have amplified this story. It will absolutely be a re-listen just as the book had been a re-read. I am so thankful that Melanie Rachel took the time, not only to write this beautiful story but to have Harry shout! (You will understand quickly in the story). Take a chance and enjoy this book too.

Original and entertaining, but...

Not sure this can qualify as P&P except for the names and places. So many variations in plot and characters that it could easily be just any novel set in the Regency Period. However, the new family adds a whole new dimension to the story, and the premise of this variation is a lot of fun. Not very literary but enjoyable.

Simply. The. Best.

This has long been a favorite book for me. It’s often a go-to when craving something wonderful but familiar in JAFF stories. Having it in audible form is that much better. Harry and Stevie bring it brilliantly to life and, even knowing this story as well as I do, I found myself breathless and unable to stop listening. Even if you already have this book in e-format or print I would highly advise you to get the audible as well. It’s so worth it! And if you haven’t already had the opportunity to read this story yet this is one for the ages and will stay with you long after you’ve finished it.

Nothing But the Best of Variations…

I’ve been so enthralled w/ P&P’s beyond as when I was a child, my elder sister (4yrs) & teaching me to love books as she did. We read Austin’s books to the endings, discussed & wrote our.own continuations. But this is most imaginable of a revamp. So wonderfully NOT at all the same dulls of the rest! Sheer brilliance by our Author & narration so well done, BRAVO…

Good story, great narration!

This is a very good story, long and involved-the way I love them! The narration was like a dream come true, so so good! I long for more!
