About this listen
Excerpt: I don’t know why I am feeling so low. Perhaps I am just not used to begin confined to the house, unable to be as much out of doors as I would be at home. Then it occurred to her, ah, the problem is that I miss my Jane. I am lonely!
Reminding herself of her need for a confidante, she decided to write to Aunt Chatty, the advice columnist. What harm can it do? she thought, and began to write.
Dear Aunt Chatty,
I am visiting here in London with my aunt and uncle, who are kind and generous and very dear to me. My aunt is ill and I am here from my country home to aid with her children’s care until she is recovered. I feel quite guilty even bothering to write to you as I truly should not be complaining. But here I am writing whether or not it is justified.
I generally visit my relations here in Town with my older sister, who is also my dearest friend and confidante. She was dealt a tremendous blow last autumn when a suitor who had been courting her assiduously and had captured her heart deserted her without explanation or even a farewell. He has now returned to our country neighborhood and has again been calling on her. I tell you all this to explain why she did not accompany me here and why I can’t write to her to seek her advice when she currently has so much to deal with herself.
I, too, suffered a disappointment of the heart this past spring, which was entirely my own fault. I couldn’t bear to share the details with anyone, even my sister, but I have also been somewhat melancholy as a result of my self-inflicted heartache. I reacted in anger to some unfortunate comments and rejected a proposal of marriage from a very honorable gentleman. At the time, I thought him arrogant, conceited, and ungentlemanly. I have since learned that he is the opposite of my perception, but, of course, I can’t contact him to enlighten him about my change of heart.
So here I am in the city, away from my closest family and friends as the festive season approaches, unable to even go out for a solitary walk to help clear my mind of my unhappy thoughts. I am without my confidante and feeling guilty about the pain I must have caused the man I so rudely rejected. I hope you can offer me some advice on how to regain my usual cheerful attitude.
In the meantime, I am,
Lonely in London

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 19
I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses. ELIZABETH BENNET is determined that she will put a stop to her mother’s plans to marry off the eldest Bennet daughter to Mr. Collins, the Longbourn heir, but a man that Mr. Bennet considers an annoying dimwit. Hence, Elizabeth disguises herself as Jane and repeats her vows to the supercilious rector as if she is her sister, thereby voiding the nuptials and saving Jane from a life of drudgery. Yet, even the “best laid plans” can often go awry. FITZWILLIAM DARCY is desperate to ...

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 12
Warning: This is another excessively sweet, clean, low-angst story written from a decidedly Christian point of view. This novella of about 44,000 words is about the fulfillment of Elizabeth’s Bennet’s childhood wish to be Mrs. Darcy. Excerpt: The young couple joined hands as they stood together in the sun-filled meadow of the sprawling estate of Pemberley. “Dearly beloved,” the ceremony began, “we have gathered here to witness the joining of this couple in holy matrimony.” The speaker did his best to remember the words of the marriage service without the benefit of his prayer ...

Of Gates and Grace is a light, sweet, very low-angst novella of a little 39,000 words written from a decidedly Christian perspective. When Darcy and Elizabeth meet for the first time – or is it the second? – he mistakes her for a wood nymph. Excerpt: “Well, are you coming in?” After a pause, the gatekeeper, presumably St. Peter, repeated more slowly as if he was speaking to slow-witted children, “So are you two coming in or staying out there?” Darcy spoke first, “I don’t think I’m finished yet. I have more that I need to accomplish. My sister isn’t yet married, and…and...
