Summary

Is Mr. Darcy capable of wanting to marry just for the sake of love?

An unexpected meeting between Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet becomes suddenly and shockingly dangerous. Mr. Darcy is determined to protect Elizabeth, but his exertions leave him grievously wounded. Sheltering with him in a shepherd’s hut, Elizabeth tends to Darcy’s injuries while trying to suppress her concern about the impropriety of her circumstances, as well as the fever-induced proposal that results.

While they survive the imminent threat, others at Rosings do not, altering the fates of their friends and relations. The connection between them seems to have thus come to an end. Elizabeth’s emotions, enflamed by the forced intimacy in the shepherd’s hut, are aggravated when Darcy—now healing from his injuries—arrives to make good on his proposal. What woman wants an offer of marriage made in service to her reputation rather than to romantic love? Or was there love there all along?

An Excellent Walker is a Pride and Prejudice variation.

A nice tale of England during the Napoleonic War

Firstly the narrator needs to improve his English if he is going to narrate British based stories. He messes up his E&A "s with the Americanism of Derbyshire calling it Derrr bish shire as in the US derby. Then Hertfordshire he calls Herrrt ford shire & boy it grated.
The story is sweet but a bit long winded so not one I'd want to listen to for a second time.

Enjoyed it

Enjoyed this variation of Pride and Prejudice but it did get a bit boring at times. The narrator was OK but his pronounciation of some words sounded a bit American. For such a very British story an English narrator would have been much better.
