A Gentleman's Honor

A Pride and Prejudice Variation (Darcy and Elizabeth Happily Ever Afters)

By: Melanie Rachel

Narrated by: Harry Frost, Elizabeth Grace

Someone wants Elizabeth Bennet dead. It’s all Fitzwilliam Darcy’s fault.

Elizabeth Bennet wants the truth from Mr. Darcy. When she follows him from the ballroom to insist upon it, she becomes an unwilling witness to a scandalous scene. And for once, she cannot blame Mr. Darcy for disdaining his company, not even when he departs Netherfield in the middle of the ball.

When Darcy returns to London, he leaves both Miss Elizabeth Bennet and his growing infatuation for her behind--or so he believes. For soon, their paths cross again under the most painful of circumstances.

Elizabeth suddenly finds herself dependent upon Mr. Darcy. With the gradual unveiling of his character, she is surprised by a burgeoning affection for him. Will her heart survive their inevitable parting?

Thrust together out of necessity, Elizabeth and Darcy must discover the culprit responsible for their predicament before they are ruined...or worse.

Wow!

Loved every second of it! It was a little weird at first with the two narrators, but after the first chapter or so it wasn’t an issue. Strongly recommend!

Love this Elizabeth & Darcy

The plot of this story is a bit unbelievable BUT I didn’t care. I loved listening to the unfolding tale. I especially liked the added elements to our canon characters - Lizzy is fierce and obviously had been a tomboy, Jane is not just sweet & serene, Mr B is better, Darcy is so much more romantic, Charles Bingley is not the man Austen described and Sir William is astonishing!! I very much enjoyed the dual narrators although there was apparently some technical difficulty cutting the female reader into the audio without the difference in clarity being obvious, but it gets better as the story goes on. I did not mind it and it didn’t take away from my enjoyment of the story.

Unusual plot of an interesting story hindered by poor Narration of one IMHO.

Narration of one of the narrators was not nearly as good as expected and previously enjoyed. Throughout, her narration I had difficulty understanding what ahe said...it was barely understandable at times

Narrators rock this!

I first read the story & completely enjoyed it but then the audiobook came out and with both Harry Frost & Elizabeth Grace doing the narration took this story to a new level. He took all the male parts & she all the female roles and the story just flowed. After a little bit you are sucked into the story and you dont even focus on who is saying what. I truly hope that these two continue to partner up and do more of the JAFF/P&P audiobooks!

Excellent and worth the wait!

i read the book when it was first released and have re-read it at least twice. I was hoping it would get the audio treatment and was so excited to find it! The narration style and the narrators themselves are so well done. I have zero complaints. I am a big fan of the author, and the narrators are two of my favorites. Worth the $/ credit. You will definitely enjoy.

Re telling of Lizzie and Mr. Darcy.

This one has has Mr. Darcy rescuing and taking care Elizabeth. Keeping her hidden after finding her unconscious and not knowing who tried to kidnap her. They fall in love. It's sweet. Lizzie is nice and not much of her family is in this version.

Lovely story

This was an excellent mystery as well as a love story. This Mr. Bingley was very much in character and got his just desserts in the end. I would like to know how Caroline ended up. Darcy and Elizabeth were true to their characters and deserved their HEA. Harry Frost was excellent as always.

Mystery, Rescue and Romance

This is a very enjoyable story. The romance was quite believable and full of tender moments. At the beginning of the book Lizzy is in very grave danger yet uses her wits and courage to survive. There were a couple of truly scary scenes. It is a well composed story that is not easy to figure out - a true mystery. Colonel Fitzwilliam plays a big role and is funny as usual. There is lots of witty and often comical conversation. Darcy is extremely likable, his heart captured and his judgement occasionally in question because he is not thinking clearly. He is in love but doesn't know it!

The sound is a tiny bit wonky in the beginning but not enough to detract from the overall enjoyment. The dual narration by Elizabeth Grace and Harry Frost was done differently from most double narrations. Usually chapters are narrated by one or the other narrator, with the male narrator also reading the female role, and vise versa. Both Elizabeth Grace and Harry Frost are excellent at realistically doing male or female voices, but this book was not done that way. It had the majority of the narration by Harry Frost with Elizabeth Grace popping in whenever Lizzy needs to speak, or when another female is speaking. This manner of recording worked so well in the Darcy/Lizzy scenes, especially the romantic conversations between the two of them.

Elizabeth Grace and Harry Frost are two of my very favorite narrators. The slight difference in the early sound quality was not an issue. Do not let this keep you from listening to a very well written variation full of charm, humor and a romantic rescue from nasty perpetrators. I hope Audible offers more of Melanie Rachel's P&P variations.

Loved this

This is one of my favorite books from this author, when I heard it was in listening form I had to have it and am very glad I got it. I loved both the voices, I thought they portrayed the characters very well. I hope Ms. Rachel has more of her books put to voice.

Worth the credit

Except for the female voice of Elizabeth a good listen. I bought this because of Harry Frost as narrator. The story is very well done but a little more description of people, places and things would have been appreciated. At first the audio of Elizabeth Grace was difficult to understand and sounded like it was done in another location unlike Harry Frost’s clear crisp sound. I thought Elizabeth sounded like a sarcastic imp not like a lovable harmless pert Miss. I found her character to be off putting with this voice. She’s always so irritable and sharp which isn’t a Lizzie Darcy would find charming. The writing is very good and the story held my interest and was well done. The Bingly’s are out of character but at least Jane is her usual fine friend and sister. I very much enjoyed this listen and find it easy to recommend.
