About this listen

To think that Mr. Darcy considers himself in love with me!

Elizabeth Bennet is horrified when, during a walk in Netherfield’s gardens with her sister Jane, she witnesses Mr. Darcy take a fall from his horse. Rushing to his aid, she is bewildered when he–seeming quite out of his wits–declares himself to her. Deciding the proposal was the product of a confused mind, she decides to disregard it.

Fitzwilliam Darcy had already dismissed any thoughts of an alliance with the enchanting Miss Elizabeth Bennet. When he learns of his addled declaration, however, he decides that his accident was a most fortunate one, revealing the true desires of his heart over more prudent objections. Alas, the object of his affections is less ready to accede, however, and so he finds he must win her as a proper suitor should.

Moved by Darcy’s sincerity and persistence, Elizabeth agrees to allow him the chance to court her properly before giving her final answer to his proposal. Darcy sets out to prove his lasting devotion and persuade Elizabeth they will be happy together. With various antagonists standing in the way of their happily ever after, it will prove to be no easy task!

Pride Before a Fall is a lighthearted, humor-filled Pride and Prejudice variation.

An engaging storyline not without some angst. An understanding and reversal of opinion was not too late in coming which allowed for some interesting dialogue. Would recommend.

A sweet slow burn
