Publisher's summary
Lady Catherine de Bourgh is prepared to be very generous when it comes to medical care for her sickly daughter, Anne - generous enough to lure noted physician Dr. Thomas Bennet to give up his London practice and move his family to Rosings Park. But his good income comes with a price: complete dependence on his demanding patroness’s every whim.
Now the Bennet family is trapped, reliant on Lady Catherine for their survival. Their patroness controls every aspect of the Bennet household, from the shelves in the closet to the selection of suitors for the five Bennet daughters. Now she has chosen a husband for headstrong Elizabeth Bennet - Mr. George Wickham.
But Lady Catherine’s nephew, Fitzwilliam Darcy, is not so sure about his aunt’s choice. He is fascinated by the compassionate Elizabeth who seems to effortlessly understand everyone around her, including him. Lady Catherine has other plans for Darcy, though, and she forbids Elizabeth to even speak to him.
As Anne’s health takes a turn for the worse, Darcy and Elizabeth are thrown together as Dr. Bennet struggles to save Anne’s life. Darcy can no longer deny the truth - he is in love with Elizabeth Bennet. But Lady Catherine will do anything to stop Darcy from marrying her - even if it means Elizabeth will lose everything she loves.

As far as Fitzwilliam Darcy is concerned, the only good thing to come of Elizabeth Bennet’s bitter refusal of his heart and his hand was his new resolve to prove himself a better man. He’d done it, too, by closing the painful distance between himself and his estranged younger brother, Drew. And now Drew is newly engaged to be married…to Elizabeth Bennet. Family duty forces Darcy to support the engagement, especially since even the smallest hint of disapproval could ruin the brothers’ hard-won reconciliation. But how can he bear to watch his brother marry the woman he loves?

A good read.
This book held my interest all the way through. I found the performance by a woman to be very good. I noticed a review that would not agree. The author, I believe, may fancy herself as uh
having a connection.with Sherlock Holmes. Her Elizabeth could deduce a great deal about people with little information, and she was never wrong. However I enjoyed the story and the different take on the dynamics of the Bennet family.. I would recommend the book.

Heroine is poorly redone!!
This story is cute but does a terrible injustice to Elizabeth Bennett. The author makes her self doubt and constantly shamming herself. Mr Bennett is revamped to be an evil Mr Collins who completely dominates & tries to destroy Elizabeth. Mr Darcy is the knight in shining armor that comes to her rescue. The story also drags and is hard to get into almost didn’t finish it because the story and the Narrator are both not very good. Much better Adaptations out there would not recommend this one.

Not as good as Book 2
This book is good but not as good as the next book. It provides as background for Book 2 but is not neccesary to know what is going on.. This book features Elizabeth and Darcy but includes parts featuring the other Bennett sisters as well as Mr. and Mrs. Bennett. Lady Katherine is the worst of the villains. Book two features Lydia and it is awesome.

Dark Pride and Prejudice Retelling
In this Pride and Prejudice variation, Mr. Bennet isn't a gentleman with a small estate, he's a talented doctor hired by Lady Catherine to take care of Anne de Bourgh. Lizzy acts as his assistant and tries to anticipate her father's every need before he expresses it, as he's quick to anger and she is often the target of that anger. When Mr. Darcy visits his aunt, he meets Lizzy and admires her, but Lady Catherine has other plans for the two oldest Bennet sisters.
I really enjoyed this retelling. Why is it so dark? Every character, except for Darcy and the Gardiners, are magnified versions of themselves. Normally I prefer the characters to have the same personalities, and just the circumstances to be different, but this variation works in its own way. Mr. Bennet isn't just a lax father, he's verbally abusive and cruel. Mrs. Bennet wants to get rid of her two oldest step daughters to make way for her biological children, and Lady Catherine? She isn't just overbearing and interfering in this retelling, she actually intends harm. Jane loves her sister, but is indifferent or unseeing of her suffering. Lizzy's self esteem is damaged by a lifetime of harm by her family, although she still retains her own sparkle. Watching Darcy work to heal her heart was cathartic. This is a great variation and I'll be looking out for more by this author!
The narration was well done, perfect for the story. I really enjoyed her accent, and it was a great performance.
