Some form of devilry has come over Mr. Darcy.

Since his father’s death, Fitzwilliam Darcy has endeavored to be reliable, responsible, and restrained. But upon visiting Netherfield Park in Hertfordshire, he finds himself weary of the struggle to be so damnably well regulated and delights in a revival of the carefree mischief that characterized his younger days.

What brings on this sudden reversal? Perhaps it is a shocking incident that takes place upon his first entering the neighborhood when he rescues Miss Elizabeth Bennet from the raging current of a rain-swollen stream. The so-called “lady” does not prefer to be rescued, and Darcy’s subsequent dunking, rather than resulting in the gratitude that is his due, is met with her confounding resentment of his interference.

This tale of Darcy’s entanglement with the mysteriously grief-stricken Bennet family is interwoven with a love story - a most delicious exchange of looks, barbs, pranks, and innuendos as Miss Elizabeth, the “lightning bolt of Longbourn”, regularly singes, frustrates, and humbles the man from Derbyshire.

To me there was nothing to dislike. I've listened to it many times and never tire of it. I enjoy this more layed back Darcy in this story. I love his relationship with all the Bennets (sadly Mrs B has died before story begins). Mr B is a happy surprise.. 🥰
Whilst most of it is very light hearted and happy there is some sadness too. I like how D dealt with this with sensitivity.
Great narrator who is perfect for this story. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 👏👏👏

Thoroughly enjoyable story.

Absolutely loved this P&P variation from Grace Gibson. One of my top favourite story and narration. The narrator's voice really suited Darcy's character in this book - perfect match. Lost count of number of times I have listened this; perfect to while away an afternoon

heart warming story, superbly narrated
