Publisher's summary
After Elizabeth Bennet refuses Mr. Darcy's offer of marriage, it takes a heavy toll on him. He withdraws to London and disappears near the docks, away from family, friends, and acquaintances. When he is mistaken for an escaped pirate, he is thrust into an adventure he would never have imagined. Will this be what he needs to forget the one woman he had come to love?
When her aunt and uncle have to cancel their plans to tour the Lake District, Elizabeth Bennet has the opportunity to sail to the Isles of Scilly with her father. After a pleasant visit, the voyage home brings storms, a shipwreck, and pirates! When she is rescued by gallant Captain Smith, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. What will she do when she discovers he is the very man whose offer of marriage she refused just a few months earlier?

Elizabeth Bennet dreads encountering Mr. Darcy when she visits Pemberley, for surely, after she spurned his offer of marriage, he must despise her. Yet they do meet, and to her astonishment, he holds no resentment towards her. Regrettably, someone else does. Unbeknownst to Elizabeth, her reintroduction to the master of Pemberley is far from universally welcomed. There are others for whom prejudice is stirred up by the familiarity between Miss Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.

“Love at first sight” is a laughable concept in the considered opinion of Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam and never occurs in real life—certainly not in the life of an experienced soldier. In fact, until he observes the smitten nature of his cousin Fitzwilliam Darcy, he doubts that fervent love exists. Marriage, after all, is a matter of money, social standing, and property.

Craving solitude and peace after discovering his sister with George Wickham in Ramsgate, he accepts an invitation to visit Netherfield Park from his friend Charles Bingley and travels to Hertfordshire, where he hopes Georgiana will recover from her disappointment in relative privacy.

Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed, Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage; nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

Great adventure and romance
Would you listen to Pirates and Prejudice again? Why?
I'm positive I will. The story is engaging and the narrator was wonderful. I could recognize who was speaking at the moment, just from her interpretation of each character. Great job.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Captain Smith's first mate, Bellows. Such a perfect seaman. And of course D&E.
Which scene was your favorite?
Scenes between Elizabeth and Captain Smith.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely, couldn't put it down.
Any additional comments?
I loved this book, though it was a very non-canon story. D&E were still as we love them, despite unusual circumstances. Darcy was brave, loyal, protective and honorable, Elizabeth was smart, compassionate and brave. The supporting characters added to the story, they were well written and colorful.
Highly recommended.

A PG Rated Pirate Adventure
Very good narration and an original story. Sweet, not sordid (PG Rated). A couple of good twists, but also predictable in places. A little too tidy and neat in my opinion.

Okay story, TERRIBLE narration
Who pronounces valet with a T?!? This narrator. Who can turn Elizabeth into a simpering female? This narrator. And who can portray Darcy as a melodramatic weakling? You guessed it, this narrator! She can take a decently wored statement, add 200% drama and voice cracking and turn the character into a crybaby. I hardly recognized Darcy and Elizabeth's characters, they were so weak. Okay, rant over. On to the story...
I thought I'd like the story, as I'd read another book with them falling in love on a ship and it was well written. This book had many good points and adventure, but I REALLY didn't like the characterisation of Darcy from the very beginning. Him going into a depression fit that makes him completely lose himself to the point of becoming like a drunk hobo? Makes him seem weak in character and quite honestly, a sad creature...so very different than the srong man of high convictions and honor that we know him to be and love him for. If you can ignore the main characters being so different than the Darcy and Elizabeth we all know and love, you may enjoy this book. Personally, I think she should have just given them different names and not made it a JAFF book. These characters were so different from the people we know them to be.

overkill
What did you like best about Pirates and Prejudice? What did you like least?
I am a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice so almost any story related to Darcy and Elizabeth is fun for me
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
The premise is adorable and exciting...but once the love is 'declared' the last few chapters are overkill. I ended up skipping parts and skipping the whole last chapter
Which character – as performed by Tiffany Halla Colonna – was your favorite?
Elizabeth
Do you think Pirates and Prejudice needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
no follow up. It was too much of a good thing at the end. The only way a follow up would work is if it was them sailing together but not as pirates

Captivating Tale, Awesome Naration
The story was such a fun take on Pride and Prejudice. I really enjoyed the twists and turns presented by the author. The naration was perfect! The reader's many voices for characters were spot-on and added an extra dimension to the story which made it so much better than reading it to myself!

Darcy and Elizabeth face the perils of pirates
I thoroughly enjoyed this variation of Pride and Prejudice. Darcy is terribly depressed after Elizabeth refuses his very inept proposal at Kent. He lets himself go. Gets and stays drunk. Let his hair and beard grow and dresses in dirty bedraggled clothes. While wandering the streets near the docks in London in this horrible condition, he is thought to be an escaped pirate and arrested. Elizabeth in the meantime has sailed with her father to visit cousins. It ends up that their paths cross but she does not recognize him at first. She thinks he is a sea captain. A lot of action occurs as they get to know one another better and many misunderstandings are corrected. Many of our characters from Jane Austen's book appear in Pirates and Prejudice - All the Bennetts, Bingley, Wickham, Lady Catherine, etc. That is alway great fun.
The narration is excellent. Ms. Colonna has a wonderful talent for performing, and an beautiful smooth voice. i highly recommend this book.

Quite the Adventure!
A case of mistaken identity results in Darcy being arrested as an escaped pirate. When his true identity is confirmed, he is asked to take part in a ruse to capture the real escapee. Learning not to act as a gentleman will be a challenge. As circumstances bring a traveling Elizabeth back into his life, keeping his true identity secret will test his still hurting heart to the max.
This engaging and well-written book, along with a very good performance and narration by Tiffany Halla Colonna provides hours of entertainment. This is a first-time listen of this narrator for me. Well done.

Loved it! Thankful for the Clean Romance!
I enjoyed listening to Kara Louise's Pirates and Prejudice. The historical views in my opinion are superb. I was locked into the story and within 2 days, finished it. It was well written. I applaud Kara for keeping all of the romancing episodes clean. It was refreshing to enjoy a good romance book without the erotic romance stuff.
