Elizabeth Bennet: Short and Sassy

Four Pride and Prejudice Tales

By: Alix James, Nicole Clarkston

Narrated by: Megan Green

Four heartwarming tales! Sigh, swoon, and fall in love with Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth, again and again.

Love and Other Machines

Her life was going smoothly until love threw a wrench into it.

Her uncle’s pet and her mother's trial, Elizabeth Bennet has always been…different. Blessed with a quick mind and a knack for all things mechanical, sometimes the simplest things — like love — are harder for her to fix. A gentleman by birth but an engineer at heart, Darcy wastes no time in dismantling Elizabeth’s secret. But he has secrets of his own that cause him to linger, to falter, and then to risk everything. Can Elizabeth and Darcy work together, or will the gears spin out of control?

Indisposed

A misunderstanding to last a lifetime.

When Elizabeth Bennet first meets Fitzwilliam Darcy, she is not feeling quite herself. Miserable and in an unsociable temper, she decides to attend the Meryton Assembly against her better judgment to support her beloved sister. Fitzwilliam Darcy unknowingly misjudges the condition of Miss Elizabeth Bennet’s health. What begins as complete disinterest soon develops into pity when an unknown surgeon offers an even more bleak outlook for the young woman’s future. He will see that her last days are worth living. He commits himself to be her champion…irrevocably. Will he discover his feelings are more than just pity on a dying woman?

Spirited Away

When doing the right thing goes utterly wrong.

Elizabeth Bennet cannot rid herself of the strange feeling she has whenever she is around Mr. Darcy — and it has nothing to do with the fact that he is irresistibly handsome and intelligent. Almost nothing, anyway. People around town are disappearing, and no one seems to know why. And who was that woman Mr. Darcy was hiding at the Meryton Inn? Elizabeth has questions, and Mr. Darcy refuses to answer them. In the absence of good information, dark suggestions soon populate the town’s imagination. And when another young lady goes missing, will the town turn on Darcy, or will the truth come out — no matter who it exposes?

Unintended

What if...the person who caught you in your most embarrassing moment is also the one your heart was meant to find?

It was never supposed to happen. Elizabeth Bennet never planned to get trapped in a ridiculous situation, and she certainly never intended for the person who found her to be a dizzyingly handsome...tall...and odiously haughty man who seems to regret ever meeting her.

Fitzwilliam Darcy wishes he could erase that whole morning - especially the part where he laid bare his.... Well, it is hardly worth repeating. For a surety, he would rather forget about the temptingly pert lady who had borne witness to his blunder. The only trouble is, he keeps being thrown into company with her. Every encounter brings a new brush with calamity, and he is beginning to wonder if he will survive their acquaintance. Darcy must find a way to keep his wits about him, keep his sister's reputation safe, and keep Elizabeth Bennet from becoming something she was never supposed to be...his intended.

Shorter stories

I enjoyed all of these small stories. Narrator is good. I highly recommend this book to a Jane Austen fan fiction lover.
