Lady Catherine comes to Meryton...and Mrs. Bennet gives her a piece of her mind.
Fitzwilliam Darcy is more determined than ever to win Elizabeth's love - no matter what obstacles their families place between them.
Elizabeth Bennet is growing to love Darcy, but a life-threatening secret threatens to dash her hopes for their happily-ever-after.
When a matron is found murdered in the midst of a militia parade, Darcy soon discovers the strength of the victim's enemies...and their closeness to Elizabeth. Can Darcy protect her when she is determined to bring the murderer to justice?
With a cold-blooded killer on the loose and their hearts on the line, can Darcy and Elizabeth work together to solve another mystery while fighting for each other?
The Indomitable Miss Elizabeth is the second novel in Jennifer Joy's A Meryton Mystery romance series set in England's captivating Regency era - when a gentleman's manners were regarded as highly as a lady's reputation and a happy marriage was the ultimate prize (although a fortune was never frowned upon).
If you like falling in love with Mr. Darcy and Miss Elizabeth as they fall for each other, then you'll love this sweet romance-mystery variation of Jane Austen's timeless classic, Pride and Prejudice.
Listen to The Indomitable Miss Elizabeth to satisfy your craving for a fast-paced mystery interwoven with a heartwarming, wholesome romance today!

Returning to Meryton, Darcy and Col Fitzwilliam are dismayed to see Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Anne arrive to stay at the local inn. Anne is overtaken by a shocking illness, and the family struggles to keep it quiet. During the militia's parade a few days later, Elizabeth discovers the body of a person very dear to her. Overwhelmed with grief, she determines to find the murderer and bring them to justice.
Rather than being a rehash of the same events from the original Pride and Prejudice, this is a completely fresh plot. The introduction of new shopkeepers and other residents of Meryton expand the familiar circle of characters and keep the story fresh. There are a few characters introduced in the first book that appear in this one but it's easy to infer what their relationships are without lengthy explanations. This can truly be read as a standalone novel without spoiling the ending of the first book.
Darcy and Lizzy are portrayed perfectly in this version, and their interactions and conversations are so sweet. We get a glimpse of a new side to Mr. Bennett that I loved. A new father figure for Darcy is introduced, and I hope we see more of him in future novels.
Good luck guessing the identity of the killer! The murder plot is nicely done and there are well placed red herrings and clues throughout. There are a few twists and reveals that had me gasping and hitting the rewind button to make sure that I heard right. The mystery and the romance are given equal weight in the story and they don't detract from each other.
Nancy Peterson was the perfect narrator for this book. From the beginning I loved her voices for each character, especially Mrs. Bennett and Lady Catherine. They just seemed so authentic and sounded exactly like I pictured them. The narrator read the humorous bits with a pleasant smile in her voice like she's sharing the joke with us. She didn't overact or make the narration too dramatic, and her pace was perfect. It was the perfect combination of author and narrator.

Nancy Peterson's narration was great and I had no issues with it at all. I'd happily listen to another of her performances. She did a great job with all of the various characters and her voice was filled with various emotions when necessary. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher for an honest review.

This is book two of the Meryton Mystery series and a variation of the "Pride and Prejudice" story. This is a standalone book and can be read without having read the first book in the series, "The Honorable Mr. Darcy." However, having said that, there are numerous references to events which occurred in the first book and due to events in the first book, some of the history of the characters has changed. The author does provide quick summaries of those events. I do recommend that you start with book one of this really enjoyable series, you won't regret it.
What a wonderful follow-up to "The Honorable Mr. Darcy." Ms. Joy does a great job in creating the P&P world and the characters who inhabit it. If you love these characters, you will absolutely enjoy them as they interact to solve a murder which has deeply affected Lizzie and her family. I love how Lizzie was able to subtly direct the investigation. Additionally, besides the murder investigation, the relationships between Bingley and Jane and, of course, Lizzie and Mr. Darcy are explored. New characters are introduced and a secret society [LAMB] is discovered. This book was such fun and any fan of P&P will certainly enjoy it.
The narrator, Nancy Peterson, is wonderful and compliments the written word with her narration.
Very Entertaining

Would you consider the audio edition of The Indomitable Miss Elizabeth to be better than the print version?
I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator.I always enjoy listening to audiobooks because the narrator can really allow the characters to come alive. I have not read the printed version however, so I cannot compare the two.
What other book might you compare The Indomitable Miss Elizabeth to and why?
Logically Jane Austen... However lately there have been some "remakes" of Jane Austen's novels for us addicts. Of the ones I have already read, "Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict (Jane Austen Addict, #1)" by Laurie Viera Rigler, more closely reminds me of this book.What does Nancy Peterson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her personality and interpretationIf you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
