About this listen
Mr. Darcy is unmarriageable. Every time he shows any interest in a lady, be it casual or serious, the lady disappears or has disaster befall her. Soon, society spreads gossip that he is cursed, and mamas and daughters alike shun his company.
Some unknown nemesis keeps the rumors alive, and soon, he suspects he will never find happiness until he discovers who wants him ruined.
In Meryton, a humbled Mr. Darcy finds himself drawn to a local beauty. Ever cautious that the villain behind his misfortune is watching, he takes great pains to keep his courtship a secret. He disguises his intentions by showing equal attention to all the ladies and being amiable to everyone.
When an old enemy arrives in Meryton unexpectedly, Darcy is instantly wary and works even harder to keep his relationship with Elizabeth from being widely known. Will he ever be free to marry and love her openly, or is his love doomed to be thwarted?
Thwarted can be considered far-fetched, but it was fun to write, nonetheless.

Clever mystery!
Thoroughly thrilled to see Harry Frost’s bring MJ Stratton’s first audiobook to life with his always-outstanding performance. Well done, Harry! I hope this will just be the first of this talented author’s books become available on audio. This one brings a very sweet declaration of love leading to a secret courtship and engagement, and a clever mystery.

A fantastic combo!
I had read this story when it first came out, but absolutely adore the audiobook version, with Harry Frost's bringing it all to life.
The opening chapters set the stage of strings being pulled to ruin Darcy's life. When he finally seeks refuge at Netherfield, he is practically a leper, as far as Society is concerned. Not even Caroline Bingley wants him. Due to his troubles, he decides to make a break from the Society that abandoned him. This brings him to Meryton, with a mind open to the idea of a country gentlewoman. Duty was no longer a factor; he would seek his happiness! The courtship is darling, and aside from Mr Bennet, no one knows.
Without giving more away, I will say I was surprised at the identity of the nefarious shadow in the background and 2 characters get their just desserts, in a creative way!
Between this engaging book and the fabulous narration, this is a winning combo to listen to.
I won this audiobook in a contest, with no expectation of a review, and I am leaving my honest opinion.
