After an anonymous encounter at a Hertfordshire assembly, Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet conduct a secret courtship without knowing each other's identities—unaware that she is the paid companion to the cousin he jilted and that their families' intertwined fates will force them to choose between love and duty.

I enjoyed this P & P variation, mostly for the scenes between Lizzy & a very determined Darcy and the reading by Simon Alison. However, it is those ODC scenes that really make for the interest, at least in my opinion. And, I’ll admit, Saye’s scenes.

A Very Good Variation & Great Narration

In A Gentleman’s Pursuit, Elizabeth and Darcy are both dealing with the consequences of refusing to marry a cousin. While Collins immediately chooses Charlotte, Anne has to go to town for the season to find a husband—accompanied by Elizabeth.

As always with this favourite author, her inventive beginning of an entertaining plot and the dialogue that ensues immediately carries the story. The conversations and banter between Darcy and Elizabeth are where a lot of the enjoyment comes from. He is particularly persistent in this story, and I liked that—a lot! He never gives up.

As readers might expect, Lord Saye provides exactly the sort of moments you hope for—just enough to make you smile without turning the story into something it is not. And there is a touch of angst, as there always is, though it never overwhelms the rest. Another past favourite character appears in this story, but I won’t spoil that for you.

Overall, this is one of those books that simply reads well. It flows, the characters feel like themselves, and the story moves along without getting too bogged down with too much angst or unnecessary Lydia/Wickham subplots. If you enjoy a gentleman who will not be deterred, and a lady determined to resist him, you will likely find Amy D’Orazio’s latest novel as enjoyable and delightful as the rest of her catalogue. Well done!

Excellent narration and performance by Simon Alison who’s become a favourite. He voiced this more direct and teasing Darcy and the banter between him and Elizabeth perfectly. I like his Darcy voice very much.

Highly recommend.
