I do understand that this is a variation. That being said, this rendering was almost painful to read. Our Mr. Darcy would never act in such a weak manner. Please, in the future, make Fitzwilliam Darcy as he is, a force to be reckoned with.Product details

Christmas At Rosings A Pride And Prejudice Variation edition by Serenity Bly a Lady Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Darcy is condescending, Lizzy has no backbone! For that matter neither does Darcy! Did not enjoy at all. Do not recommend
Lack of Austen’s characteristic satire, parody, irony, and precise use of language is the first disapointment. Then there is ridiculous misuse of language like “teaming lake”. Those things aside, the plot is rendered laughable by lack of historical accuracy. Wealthy regency families travelled with servants and a great deal of luggage. For a journey of such length Elizabeth Darcy would have been accompanied by a ladies maid, Mr. Darcy by a valet. There would have been a second coach to accommodate these servants and all the baggage. Elizabeth would have required a large room and a dressing room. The silly plot seems to be about sex and a decidedly weak-willed Mr. Darcy. So glad I got this on Unlimited and was able to delete it almost immediately.
I thought, right, let me see? Is this scenario even possible. The writing style is good, but with multiple people reading this, how on earth did the author confuse "bare" with "bear ". Twice or whenever it was used to mean to carry some burden, or to withstand.
One cannot bare the old bat? Hello!
First of all, I can't see her as motherly, she's too far from Pemberley? Cough. I doubt she would leave Anne by herself, although she does just that in the story.
Fitzwilliam was too far away and involved in his studies. Where is Georgiana anyway? He looked after her because she was so young. Lady Catherine, Mother, more like Smother.
Anne had never been to Pemberley. From the original story, Darcy went against Lady Catherine to marry Elizabeth.
He cannot be so dimwitted as to agree with Lady Catherine 's insults if he truly loved Lizzy. Gah. He would be silent, not insulting at the very least.
I am trying to see things that way, but, it is just too farfetched to be realistic.
Usually, Elizabeth is the one extending the olive branch. Darcy would not jump if Lady Catherine says jump. How high?
Nice idea but not feasible. Elizabeth is too strong willed. If they go at all it would be her idea not his. I can see Darcy getting mad and leaving, but not agreeing with the old bat in the first place regarding Elizabeth. He is too strong willed, no matter how shy he is.
Plus, the lack of accuracy for travelling that distance with no servants. There was lots of sex though. Odd. Not period correct, I'm afraid.
I don't buy it. If the story were to change slightly. Yes, this could happen without Darcy as a wimpy puppet.
This novelette was a perplexing book - it was nicely written with some settings so vividly descibed that was easy to see them in the mind's eye, yet at other times the writing was rather flat & lacked flair. It was difficult to like this version of Darcy who still demonstrated a proud & arrogant nature, despite being married to a warm, vibrant, loving wife for several months & for much of the story he was not very considerate of her feelings outside of their passionate connubial relations (which were elaborated in some detail). He was more kindly disposed towards Lady Catherine than in canon (she had helped raise him as a child) & wilfully blind to her unconscionable & intentional snubbing of his wife (eg. not inviting to come to Rosings in the letter sent to Darcy, in conversation both public & private, assigning unsuitable accommodations, repeatedly addressing Elizabeth by maiden name, not her married one). It was not until Lady Catherine's blatant discourtesy was practically thrown in his face that he, finally, publically defended her (despite repeated private assurances of his loyalty). For much of the book Darcy's support appeared to be for 'his wife' not Elizabeth personally. It was a long time coming but when the ultimatum was given to Lady Catherine she grudgingly backed down & showed some civility, at least, to the beleaguered Elizabeth. There was a grand argument between the couple, on par with the one at the Hunsford parsonage in canon, prior to Darcy's public avowal of commitment to Elizabeth.
As the author stated in her acknowledgements this book did not follow canon, apart from the unlikeable Darcy, there were changes to Anne de Bourgh who was not so sickly & undertook lessons such as painting from her "governess" Mrs Jenkinson (no longer a companion). Also, Anne was receptive to Elizabeth's offers of friendship & attempted to defend her to an angry Lady Catherine. Mr Collins however was unchanged & fortunately only made a cameo appearance from the pulpit. This was not an overly uplifting book & if you're expecting a pleasant Christmas tale of love & family unity then disappointment awaits. However, if you want to be challenged by non-canon P&P then this may be of value to you. I will be re-reading this book to see if I can understand & appreciate the version of Darcy it presented. I did enjoy disliking Lady Catherine & looked forward to/hoped for her to get her comeuppance (the role of the villian of any piece of fiction).
There were a few spelling errors in the book & misconceptions about some lifestyle aspects in Regency England (eg. a footman or butler attended the front door of the house & introduced visitors to the residents not a "doorman"). It was a quick read, even more so as it only occupied 80% of the printed book with the remainder being a free sample of another author's work, acknowledgements, etc. I read the Unlimited version of this book & am unlikely to buy a permanent copy.
Once Darcy receives a letter from Lady Catherine to come to Rosings for the Holidays, Elizabeth sees that she's not included in the invitation. Darcy assures her that she will go with him as she is his wife. He promises that he will protect her from his Aunt Catherine's disapproval. From the time they walk into Rosings, Darcy completely forgets what he said before leaving Pemberley. It's like he completely tunes out Lady Catherine's insults. Finely, Elizabeth runs away from the manor into the snow and cold. Hours later, Darcy finally finds her and both return. Christmas morning when his Aunt begins to rage against Elizabeth, Darcy finally comes to her aid and in heated words tells his Aunt Catherine that they are leaving Rosings and never returning until she's civil to Elizabeth, and to remember that she's not Miss Elizabeth Bennet but Mrs. Elizabeth Darcy. Finally the old biddy, decides she will be nicer, and asks Mrs. Elizabeth Darcy to stay. All ends well, but Darcy's earlier struggles with supporting her causes quite a bit of anger.
I do understand that this is a variation. That being said, this rendering was almost painful to read. Our Mr. Darcy would never act in such a weak manner. Please, in the future, make Fitzwilliam Darcy as he is, a force to be reckoned with.
