About this listen

A love that began at dawn.

When Elizabeth Bennet demands satisfaction for an insult, she never expects Fitzwilliam Darcy to accept. But the proud master of Pemberley arrives at first light with his honor on the line. What follows is the most unconventional courtship in Meryton's history.

Darcy’s method? Nine clues that reveal a side of him Elizabeth never imagined—vulnerable, witty, and utterly captivating. With each illustration, her anger transforms into something far more dangerous: fascination.

But when a charming stranger spreads lies designed to destroy them, Elizabeth must choose: believe the compelling evidence provided by the stranger or trust the man whose honor she witnessed at first light—the man who has quietly, devastatingly, won her heart.

After all, the most important battles are won at dawn—when you can finally see clearly.

A novella-length variation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice for listeners who love unconventional courtships, slow-burn romance, and a hero who falls first—and hardest.

I love Christie’s novellas, I don’t know how but she manages to write such full and heartwarming stories in few words. Narration from Stevie just adds to the story telling! This will be a relisten often!

Beautiful heart warming

This delightful novella begins at the Meryton Assembly, with Fitzwilliam Darcy making a disparaging remark about Elizabeth Bennet.

In this pride and prejudice variation, Elizabeth confronts Darcy and demands satisfaction (the pistols at dawn, bring your seconds type of satisfaction).

When Darcy faces Elizabeth on the field of combat, it is not quite what he expected.

When honour is satisfied and the duel is over, Darcy declares to his second, Colonel Fitzwilliam, that Elizabeth Bennet is the only woman for him.

From that point on Darcy courts Elizabeth, in a novel way, showing her the worthy man he is (when not putting his foot in to his mouth).

This Darcy is most definitely swoon worthy and Elizabeth is smart, witty and thoroughly captivated by him.

A pleasing variation with romance, friendship and just a dash of angst. Perfect!

Stevie Zimmerman's narration is excellent, as always.

Perfect!
