Great Fun for the P &P/Jane Austen Lover!

Any additional comments?

It was fun new twist on the classic novel about Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy. It was a very clean read if you are concerned about that. It was a sweet, quick-paced short "read" and was a great for summer! Meghan Kelly did a great job narrating the book and the various characters. I find that not all narrators can accomplish the male character narration effectively but Ms. Kelly did! Some books are better read, and some books do well with narration. Meghan Kelly made this a fun book to listen to!

great story but it was too short

the story has everything that I love story needs with the exception of length I would have really liked this to have been a longer book. some more character development maybe. it was only a 2-hour book maybe if it was made into a 4-Hour book I would have been more satisfied still love the story though

Lighthearted and Sweet

A modern day Elizabeth and Darcy in the Keys. A very sweet story. Easy and short, I finished in one plane ride!

I liked it but not my favorite

I liked it but I didn't love it. I've never read Pride and Prejudice before so it was hard for me to like Will because of the way he treated Elizabeth when he first met her basically because she was the help. I know Darcy is a snob in the book so I didn't knock a star off for that because she was just following the book but it did kinda ruin it for me a little bit. Also, there was really no explanations of the women trying to use him for his money. It was mentioned a couple of times but never really talked about in any detail. It seemed too rushed to me like she crammed everything in there. It was a good story though and I liked the narrator.

I was given a copy for my honest review.

cute typical romance

What did you like best about The Keys for Love? What did you like least?

I almost enjoyed how predictable the story ended. This is a very simple, short and sweet story.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Cute, obvious ending.

Any additional comments?

This a cute short listen. Something I passively listened to. It wasn't the best story but wasn't the worst. Worth your time.

Any Darcy Works For Me

As a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice I'm happy to check out any versions of it. Though not a literary masterpiece this updated lighthearted tale was enjoyable. Great job by the writer and narrator.

Great Read!

This was a fast paced short story that I really enjoyed listening to. The narration was excellent; however the male voice wasn't as great as the female voice. I have found that in some cases it is hard for a female narrator to portray a male voice. This is a Romance, but a clean romance if your worried at all about inappropriate language or situations.
I fell in love with both main characters and their their personalities. I wouldn't mind listening to a longer version of this story to see what the future holds for our main characters.

The names are familiar but NOT the plot.

*** First a disclaimer - I was given a free copy of this in audio-book format in exchange for an impartial and honest review. I've NOT fulfilled my part of that agreement in that I've not finished this. I realized before minute 10 that it was just not for me. But I persevered until the 75 minute mark (Well past the half-way point) hoping that I'd like it better as it progressed before deciding to give up that hope.***

I was first interested in this when I read that it was a Pride & Prejudiced inspired romance. Other than the names, I was disappointed to see very little P&P inspired story-line here.

Will Darcy, the young, workaholic head of NYC based Darcy Corp ( why not Pemberly Corp?) is first attracted to house-sitter Lizzie's looks when he sees her topless in the Florida keys. Catherine de Bourgh is a gold-digging socialite (and worse). Charlotte Lucas is Will's assistant. The Reynolds work for Darcy and are not related to Lizzie. Lizzie is affluent and a successful self published romance author. Georgiana knows Lizzie before Darcy does. No curmudgeonly Papa Bennet. No flibbertigibbet Mama Bennet. No purse-proud Sir William, no plutocratically pious Reverend Collins, and nary a Bennet sister in sight. No refused marriage proposals and not a word of entailments. The way that Mr. Collins and Lady De Bourgh were presented snuffed my last interest in this update.

I've rated it two stars and it does merit that as far as I can tell. The writer is capable and there are no annoying structural errors and, the plot does hold together without seeming pretentious or contrived. However, I'm not much of a straight romance fan and the absence of the conflict that I was expecting - Lizzie's real motivations for disliking Darcy (and the other significant P&P plot points) made this less than satisfying.

I do like some romances but have never understood the fascination with those that tend toward the Harlequin. For me, this seemed one of those.
