Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

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. This may be especially so when the man in question not only possesses the rightful inheritance of said ladies, but is also of a most odious disposition and less than agreeable in appearance. 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 ...

Story
When Fitzwilliam Darcy makes an impetuous offer of marriage to Miss Elizabeth Bennet, he is convinced they have as good a chance as any for a harmonious life together. That is, until an overheard conversation changes everything, and Darcy realizes he is now joined in perpetuity to a woman who loathes the very sight of him. Elizabeth Bennet's expectations for matrimonial accord were never very high, having accepted Mr. Darcy's proposal in a fit of pique, not love. Still, she is determined to make the best of her situation. But life at Pemberley is not at all what she imagined.

Story
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...

Wonderful
Lately I have been listening to a lot of Ms. Schertz's books from the Plus Catalog. Some of them were not so good, some are pretty good, and this one was wonderful. If it had been performed by a talented artist, it would have been even more amazing. The Virtual Voice glitches at the beginning of each chapter are very aggravating and also it is sometimes difficult to know whom is speaking due to the monotone narration. Even with the drawbacks of Virtual Voice this book is excellent from beginning to end. It is not rushed, yet does not contain extraneous details or episodes.
Elizabeth is coerced into marrying Rev Collins in order to save her family from being "tossed into the hedge rows" after terminally ill Mr. Bennett leaves this world. Thankfully, just after the wedding, and before the marriage is consummated, Collins dies in a carriage accident on their way home to the Parsonage in Kent. Unfortunately Elizabeth is severely injured. Mr Darcy is devastated when he arrives in Kent and finds out that Elizabeth is almost dead. He is beside her bed constantly to help nurse her. Things really crank up as all the characters we love and hate make appearances in the story. Mrs. Bennett, Lady Catherine and Wickham are absolute evil people!
The plot moves swiftly and kept me soundly hooked until the end. I was thrilled that the worst of the characters were justly punished for their actions. There is angst, but the author does not make the listener suffer for extended periods of time. I really loved this book and highly recommend it, particularly to Jane Austen lovers.

This was a pretty good story with mostly redeemed characters. overall it would have been a 4.5 for the story itself.
I strongly disliked the pauses and stutters in the AI storyteller. her voice was very nice and somewhat soothing, but there were repetitions that were needed and confusing, A lot of times there were also context that artificial intelligence would not be able to understand and so where the pauses and such were placed cause confusion.

Outstanding
One of the best P&P vagaries I have read. I would love for a voice actor to read it as it’s very well written and different from the other hundreds I have read in this genre. I loved it. It was nice to see those who deserved reproof got it and from the characters you wouldn’t suspect. Great work! I look forward to other books by this author.

Title was perfect
I enjoyed the flow of the story. However the reader kept hesitating. Overall I enjoyed it very much.
