Mr. Darcy's Bad Day

A Pride & Prejudice Novella

By: Christie Capps

Narrated by: Stevie Zimmerman

How could one simple decision change the course of a man's life? In this fast-paced novella set in Regency England, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy of Pemberley in Derbyshire and Darcy House in London finds himself unwillingly, or possibly willingly, attached to Miss Elizabeth Bennet. With visions of their life ahead, he presses forward until everyone in her family and his are finally convinced they are a match made in heaven. Or, are they? Based on Jane Austen's classic novel, Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Darcy's arrogance and pride seem to be a constant source of bitter frustration to his betrothed. He is surprised to find these less-than-sterling qualities trip himself up a time or two...or three, as well. With his pride and her prejudice, will Darcy and Elizabeth ever get the happily-ever-after they desire? Enjoy Mr. Darcy's point-of-view as he tells a tale that might take you by surprise. It sure did him. Mr. Darcy's Bad Day is appropriate for all listeners.

Delightful!

Loved it. Great short story that was highly amusing and simply a delight to read.
Lovely presentation by Stevie Zimmerman. Sweet listen. Highly recommend.

Sweet

This is such a sweet short story. I’ve read it and listened to it several times, but failed to add a review until now. It’s wonderful to have a short uplifting tale when time is at a premium. I really appreciate the author’s catalog of short stories; they are delightful and sweet.

One of My Favorite P&P Variations

One of my favorite P&P Variations. Not all the P&P characters are involved; as it is a variation, however, I love the story and will reread again. Yes, retread. This time, however, I listened to the Audible Version which was really well read. I recommend for anyone that loves a beautiful story about Elizabeth and Darcy!

It'll make you grin

This story is rather fun. The humorous incidents are gently fun but not too annoying. The length is good for this type of story.

Elizabeth's confrontation with Lady Catherine was priceless. Elizabeth's analysis of Lady Catherine is well done. It gives a humanity not often seen in JAFF.

The ending almost made me groan but Capps gave me what I like. As she nearly always does.

Stevie Zimmerman did a great job reading it. She reads many of the JAFF books so it's not surprising. Though in some ways, I would have liked a bit more of a satirical sound but it was fine.

Loved the story, not sure about twist

Enjoyed this story and the quick love story and how they spend most of their time getting to know each other. Overall I enjoyed the story but I was a fan of the ending. Overall worth reading.
