About this listen

Can the course of a life be altered by the stroke of a pen?

Widowed at a young age, Fitzwilliam Darcy has no reason to think he'll ever find the love his first marriage lacked. Instead, he dedicates himself to his roles as father and co-guardian, determined to excel at both. But when love finally finds him, will he be too mired by the strife of the past to recognize it?

Elizabeth Bennet does not care for the newest addition to Meryton society, no matter how handsome and wealthy Mr. Darcy might be. She is, however, rather fond of his children and his sister. If only Mr. Darcy needn't be so certain of his own worth, she would tolerate him on their behalf, but that change in him seems very unlikely.

Once Upon a Time in Pemberley is a sweet, Regency-era Pride & Prejudice variation of approximately 92,000 words. While this is Summer Hanford's first variation without co-author Renata McMann, it will not be her last. Plus, you can look for more joint Renata McMann and Summer Hanford variations to come.

Not much chemistry

I didn’t love this one. There wasn’t any chemistry with ODC, or anyone for that matter. The children were cute, but not cute enough to save the story. Maybe it could have been better with a better narration.

Mostly enjoyable

I love the story, but Mr. Darcy sounds like a sickly, crochety old man who says everything while sneering.

Lady Anne Darcy is a nightmare

Who would have thought lady Anne Darcy could be a nightmare of a mother and grandmother. This leads to a a wonderful story with many layers. The narrator was awesome as always.

I enjoyed listening to this book.

This was a fun story line. I enjoyed this book. Most books I can’t finish listening to but this one I was sad when it was over. Great book.

Great story!

Entertaining variation with Darcy being widowed with three children along for the ride. Enjoy this audio book very much. Narration is excellent!

Most enjoyable

The story line and the manner in which it was written were very enjoyable. However, the narration of Me Darcy’s parts depreciated the story. I think I might have enjoyed reading the book as opposed to listening.

The story line was ok.

The narration was terrible. Maybe the author should’ve taken a little more time with the story line.
