Publisher's Summary

Pride & Prejudice meets alternate history.

Six years after Napoleon's invasion of England....

Fitzwilliam Darcy is a traitor. He even admits to collaborating with Napoleon's troops. And Elizabeth Bennet despises all traitors.

But she can't make sense of Darcy. He doesn't act like a traitor. He risks his own safety to save young women from the French. And how can she despise a man who loves puppies? Something about him doesn't add up - and she finds him far too attractive.

Then Darcy's carefully constructed world crumbles, and he must entrust his closest-held secret to Elizabeth. To protect that secret, Elizabeth must disappear entirely, leaving her family and Darcy behind, to plunge herself into the dizzying world of fashionable London and the dangers of the Loyalist Resistance. Nothing will ever be the same again.

Darcy is determined to find Elizabeth. Now that she knows the truth about him, there's nothing to keep them apart - nothing, that is, until the day Darcy is forced to choose between his country and the life of the woman he loves....

Brilliant!

I baulked at buying this book for the longest time because I could not bear to read a story where England was under French rule.

The main reason I finally succumbed was the fact that I already own so many P&P variation audiobooks, I can no longer find one that interests me enough to buy. Either the storyline, or the fact that the book is only two minutes long, or the narrator turns me off buying.

Whatever the reason, I am so glad that I finally bit the bullet, because this book is amazing. Abigail Reynolds has truly surpassed herself. Her imagination knows no bounds as she shows us an England under French rule and makes it truly believable. You also cannot help being invested in her characters, not least Darcy and Elizabeth.

I won’t go through the ins and outs of the plot because the synopsis tells all, and if that is not enough, there are plenty of other reviews giving glimpses of the plot.

I would not have succumbed to the lure of this book though if the narrator had been any one other than Elizabeth Klett. She is one of the main narrators of Abigail Reynolds’ works, and she is by far the best.

Definitely a winner and I definitely recommend.
