About this listen
ELIZABETH BENNET’s pride has her learning a difficult lesson: Loyalty is hard to find, and trust is easy to lose. Even after they share a passionate kiss outside the Meryton assembly hall and are forced to marry, Elizabeth cannot forget the indignity she experienced at the hands of Fitzwilliam Darcy. Although she despises his high-handedness, Elizabeth appreciates the protection he provides her in their marriage. But can she set her prejudice aside long enough to know a great love?
FITZWILLIAM DARCY places only two demands on his new wife: her loyalty and her trust, but when she invites his worst enemy to Darcy House, he has no choice but to turn her out. Trusting her had been his decision, but proving his choice the right one before she destroys two hearts meant to be together must be hers, and Darcy is not certain Elizabeth is up to the task.

Now, they meet again upon the Scottish side of the border, but can they forgive all that has transpired in those years? They are widow and widower; however, that does not mean they can take up where they left off. They are damaged people, and healing is not ...

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-...

While the revenge taken is not fully or graphically detailed, it is extreme. “He had certainly formed such a plan, and without meaning that it should effect his endeavour to separate him from Miss Bennet, it is probable that it might add something to his lively concern for the welfare of his friend.” Pride & Prejudice, chapter 45 This vagary proposes an alternate path for the characters of Pride and Prejudice.

Kick her to the curb
Elizabeth is acting like the witch she usually is, which is hateful and mean when Darcy pays her back in kind. I was happy because she richly deserved retribution.

Warning: This review may be a little spoiler-y. :)
I really enjoyed this book until things took a flaming nosedive around Chapter 18. Darcy's reaction to the Lady Catherine confrontation had me fuming, but then how he handled Wickham at his house threw me into a rage. Mr. Bennett taking Darcy's side irritated the snot out of me, but what made me want to just stop listening and add the author to my NEVER AGAIN list was Elizabeth's attitude and how she chose to solve the problem.
Also, in many of these Virtual Voice P&P variations the author often has Georgianna refer to her brother as "Darcy," which makes me think AI was the true author. :/ Lastly, a weird plot hole that bothered me was when Georgianna said she was no longer angry with Elizabeth for causing chaos or betraying her trust, bc no one even told Elizabeth about Wickham's bad deeds until AFTER he showed up at Darcy House, so how was she supposed to know? Maybe it wouldn't have been that big of a deal but I was already aggravated by the other events, so it just added to my annoyance.

Elizabeth is very hard headed and somewhat stupid and childish in this version
The meeting of ODC could have been very sweet, except for Elizabeth got upset over a kiss on her hand and a sea fearing tune. Then from that point on she hated Darcy and he was very nice to her and to her family.
