Ruination at Ramsgate

A Sweet Pride & Prejudice Variation

By: Abbey North

Narrated by: Katrina Michaels

When Aunt Gardiner treats Lizzy and Jane to a seaside holiday at Ramsgate, Lizzy becomes fast friends with the neighbor, Miss Georgiana Darcy. She clashes immediately with Fitzwilliam Darcy when he comes to visit, but that doesn’t stop her from trying to prevent Georgiana from eloping with Wickham when she learns of the secret romance. Her attempts go awry, as does Fitzwilliam’s plan to save Lizzy from what he believes is her plan to elope, and they are compromised.

Forced to marry, he leaves her without a backward glance as soon as they walk out of the church. If not for matchmaking attempts by Bingley and Jane, that might be the end of it, save an annulment in three years. Thrown together again in Meryton, will they compromise, or will they allow pride and prejudices to keep them apart?

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

good for a road trip

No need to have previous knowledge of P&P. Not really true to Regency time. Even on comprised situation, Darcy would not have referred to his "wife" as Miss Bennett and especially not allow Miss Bingley to regardless of situation. He held an engagement party to keep up appearances but then didn't even keep circumstances from the Bingley's sisters? Find that difficult to believe. Resolution was too easy. Georgie confesses all, Darcy rushes to Elizabeth who should have been at Netherfield but ended up at Longbourn (didn't understand how that happened), kissed her in front of the family and poof all is well. Liked the premise, but characters didn't seem like Elizabeth and Darcy.

It was a bit forced.

Not up to Abbey’s usual standard. It was a bit abrupt. Cut off in the end. The 5 star is to the narrator who did a good job.

author needs to use story concepts to write actual

abbey north has great story concepts and then rushes through them like in this one. this plot would have make a great novel but as a shorter one it feel rushed and cheats the reader
