About this listen

Mr Darcy's Second Chance is a compilation of three previously published Pride and Prejudice Variations.

A More Agreeable Man by Jan Ashton
When Jane Bennet returns from a holiday at Ramsgate engaged to a handsome young man, Elizabeth is astonished to find herself the only person at Longbourn questioning their attachment. Darcy arrives in Hertfordshire he discovers that George Wickham has impugned his character and is now betrothed to a lady whose enchanting younger sister has both decided opinions and strikingly beautiful eyes. Elizabeth and Darcy's doubts over the misalliance lead them to set aside their mutual distrust and determine the truth about Wickham’s true intentions, but the more they discover, the deeper they find their own hearts entangled.

A Golden Opportunity by J Marie Croft
Darcy longs to escape Rosings Park following his failed proposal of marriage to Elizabeth Bennet. Alas both must remain for an additional ten days for a private ball in celebration of the birthday of Anne de Bourgh.

As the days progress, Darcy finds himself increasingly alarmed by the strange happenings in Kent. Anne has thrown off the meekness of her earlier years and has been visiting the master gardener’s cottage, claiming she merely seeks his advice about her herbarium. Darcy’s days are further complicated when he realizes that he may have a rival for Elizabeth’s affection

There seems to be a potential scandal or heartache everywhere Darcy turns, but somewhere in midst of it all springs some hope.

Mrs Bennet Makes a Match by Lucy Marin
When Darcy returns to Hertfordshire he is disappointed to be greeted by coolness, but he believes he understands her prejudice.

Elizabeth Bennet knows that any chance she had of finding happiness in marriage with Mr Darcy has been destroyed by Lydia's elopement. Nothing suggests that he has any desire to rekindle the warmth between them that she felt at Pemberley.

Enjoyable low-angst short novellas from 3 talented authors, well written and very well performed by Liam Anderson. First time I have heard this narrator and felt he was very good and listenable. Being a Northern lass from the UK myself, I very much appreciated the Northern accent he gave to the Bingleys! - a thoughtful characterisation as the Bingleys are noted as from Yorkshire, which I have not heard from other P&P narrators before. I hope Mr Anderson will narrate more P&P books. One feedback I would give is that the volume of the audio was a bit inconsistent in places in that it was too low at times (especially when thoughts are think aloud or the characters speak in too low a volume). However overall very much enjoyed this audio book and would recommend

A new narrator to me reading stories from authors I know and love.

This was an excellent combination - the diction is clear and the stories are all light and fun making for a most satisfying audiobook experience.

3 fabulous stories - what a bargain

Quite frustrating, more Barbara Cartland than Jane Austen. Interesting elements but spoilt by cringworthy romantic plots and narrative.

Well narrated despite questionable storylines and dialogue.
