About this listen
Excerpt: Elizabeth Bennet sat at the writing desk in the bedchamber she shared with her sister Jane. It had been some time since she had recorded any thoughts, impressions, or experiences in her journal. She thought back over the weeks since she had returned to Longbourn as she paged through her entries from her time in Kent before flipping forward to find a clean page.
What is this? Here is a single sentence fifteen or twenty pages past my last entry. There in a decidedly masculine hand were the words: Elizabeth, when your mother is better, I will be waiting to marry you. Yours always, F. D.

This novel of 67,000 words is a sweet and clean variation of Pride and Prejudice written from a Christian perspective. The characters meet as children and grow in understanding of themselves and each other over the period of Elizabeth at age five until her marriage. There are no super-villains to wreak havoc on our heroes or heroines in this low-angst retelling. Except: Summer 1796 - On a mild summer day in Hertfordshire, Lady Anne Darcy sat in the shade of the terrace overlooking the generous expanse of manicured lawn behind their leased estate. Netherfield Park was an agreeable location ...

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 ...

Note: This is not a new work. It has been republished to correct several minor errors. But I do have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed rereading it. In this sweet, clean, low-angst Pride and Prejudice variation, Darcy and Elizabeth meet for the first time when Mr. Darcy Senior stumbles across Elizabeth on the estate grounds. Without a clue as to who this gentleman truly is, she is shepherded into the study to meet the young master of Pemberley. This novel is written from a decidedly Christian perspective, although there are scenes of non-graphic intimacy between married couples. Excerpt: “...

Story
In this low angst, a sweet retelling of Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Bennet is not just idle, he is actively cruel. And Mrs. Bennet, while still uneducated, must do whatever she can to protect her daughters from their father. Mr. Darcy’s epiphany comes much earlier than in canon and it changes his relationships not only with the Bennets but with his sister, his cousin Anne, and Bingley. When the Bennet matriarch moves to an estate outside of Bath with her daughters, Bingley follows and so do both Darcy siblings.

All have invested in Wickham's Ten Percent Annuity scheme. Her family and ...

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 ...

Story
The Bennet family of Longbourn, Hertfordshire, had long been known to its neighbours as exceptionally learned though eccentric, but was tolerated because the first Bennets settled there more than four hundred years before, just after the great plague. Both the grandfather and father of the master, Mr. Thomas Bennet, married blue-stocking wives from the Continent. These circumstances had a profound effect on Mrs. Bennet and her five daughters. Because of this broader worldview, the Bennet family was more aware of, and affected by some historical events of the period far outside the twenty-...

This is yet another sweet, clean, low-angst Pride and Prejudice Variation. This book of 64,000 words takes Elizabeth and Darcy out of their usual circumstances and meeting places.

Excerpt: Mr. Thomas Bennet massaged his temples as his five-day-old daughter again woke and cried in hungry complaint. He and the wet nurse Mrs. Lindsay had been on the road for two days with the infant, and his nerves had ...

Cons: Be prepared if you don't like to be evangelized during your JAFF time. About half way through, after you've become interested in the variation, full Bible verses start being expounded. Mostly by a weak kneed damsel named Elizabeth. She occasionally shows some backbone and self determination, but this is no heroine to be admired for her indomitable strength. Quoting the bible in response to adversity instead of her traditional rapier wit. And the further in, the more depressingly conservative and mealy mouth she becomes, allowing Darcy, Lady Matlock and even ANNE DeBerg to rescue her from her foes. This is no P&P Elizabeth Bennet Darcy.
A absolutely watered down imitation. Sad.
Good story, but be warned.
