About this listen

Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice meets the wild, wild, west.

In 1869, females are in short supply in the west, while a single man in want of a wife is rare in the east. When lonely Charles Bingley convinces his good friend, Will Darcy, to write a letter offering marriage to Miss Jane Bennet, she likewise convinces her sister, Elizabeth, to pen the reply. Elizabeth is struck by the beauty of the letter and responds by opening her heart to the Oregon wordsmith, who she believes to be Mr. Bingley. It's love at first letter for both the couples. Misunderstandings and bad impressions abound, as the true identities of the authors are discovered.

In the days following the double wedding, Will and Elizabeth Darcy face challenge after challenge, while Mr. and Mrs. Bingley appear to live in wedded bliss. Will Mr. and Mrs. Darcy find their own true love? In this sweet variation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, we will see open disdain shift to a wary friendship, and the wary friendship grow to the tenderest of emotions-or will we? Find out.

I have loved all of Ms King's variations on pride and prejudice, but I found this one particularly refreshing. Being set in America brought a whole new flavour to the story and yet despite this none of the characters personalities were lost. For some reason when reading this James Stewart comes to mind every time Will Darcy is mentioned. I am eagerly awaiting this author's next book. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good regency story and not only Austen fans.
I am sad to see the free sneak peaks at Ms Kings stories have come to an end, but I am grateful the opportunity lasted as long as it did. I do hope that this author does continue publishing these audiobooks, as each one is like taking a little holiday away from reality and leaves me with peace in my heart and a smile on my face.
Love you Joy, best wishes, Binka;)
