Marooned with Darcy

A Pride & Prejudice Variation

Marooned with the last man she would ever marry....

Lizzy and Jane are on a ship bound for America to stay with Mr. Collins’s younger brother when they meet Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy. Mr. Darcy’s disapproval of the burgeoning affection between Jane and Charles is painfully obvious, and Lizzy does her best to thwart his attempts to stop the developing relationship. She is puzzled by how invigorating it can be to trade barbs with Darcy, and he seems to enjoy it as well, but he is the last man she could ever soften toward due to his haughty manner and prideful ways.

When their ship wrecks, Lizzy and Darcy end up stranded alone on an island. As the days pass while they await rescue, the undeniable attraction between them becomes overwhelming, leading them both to act. Even as Lizzy succumbs to the temptation and falls for Darcy, she wonders if he is indeed the last man she would ever marry, or if she has been fooling herself about the strength of her emotions all along?

While Abbey sometimes writes sweet jaff, this is strictly sensual.

Nice little story.

Different story. Not so sexy as I thought. The narrator is great though. Not a re-read if I say so. But I do enjoy Abbey’s other books.

Fun short listen if you forget geography

There were a couple of far fetched elements to this tale, but not a bad way to spend a couple of hours if you need a short JAFF break. Without giving away spoilers, as you can see from cover art, what “tropical” island did they miraculously wash up on between the U. K. and Boston? Oh well....

Bad audio

The story and the reader are great but the audio faded in and out at times. It was a nice quit read otherwise.

Terrible audio.

This story was okay. I won't be re-reading it at any point and the audio kept fading in and out. At some points it was effectively silent. Overall I can not recommend this book.
