Synopsis

In this Pride and Prejudice short story, what if Darcy had not insulted Elizabeth at the Meryton assembly, but had danced with her instead? What if Elizabeth had refused to listen to anything negative that George Wickham had to say about Darcy? What if Elizabeth had been so preoccupied with thoughts of the master of Pemberley that by the time his visit to Kent was coming to an end, she was expecting his proposal?What listeners have said about Expecting His Proposal"This is a sweet quick read I listened to in one sitting. The narration was great, Pearl Hewitt brings the characters to life and is always a pleasure to listen to.""Expecting His Proposal met all my expectations once again, from reading the book to listening to the audiobook. It brought laughter and sighs and made me smile in happiness to listen to yet another masterpiece.""Pearl Hewitt brings humor and passion into the characters of the story, and brings them to life, which makes the story even better than if one only read the book.""I just love narrator Pearl Hewitt. She has a spunk and sassiness in her readings that make listening very enjoyable.""Firstly, I want to say that Pearl Hewitt has the most beautiful voice ever. I instantly felt in sync with this story due to her natural vocal talent. She has great voice inflections and even greater control. Absolutely lovely.""The story was also amazing. I loved the dialogue. This was a nice cozy yet powerful short story."

As the book description queries: what if Elizabeth was not insulted at the Meryton Assembly, what if Darcy a......more

Ms Dixon strikes again with a wonderful tale. The only problem in my eyes was that it was too short!!!! Just when it was getting good with Mr Bennet's letter it ends!!! I like this Elizabeth because she was more accepting, that is until provoked. This story really does emulate how vain Elizabeth rea......more

I needed to listen to something for a couple hours while scraping paint and had this audiobook in my library. I figured the length would be perfect for my needs. And it was. I enjoy P&P variations and I always think it is interesting to see what each author comes up with to make the story their own.......more

Another P&P variation. hehe. This one changes the events of things. What if Darcy didn't wound Elizabeth's pride by insulting her at the Meryton assembly and actually DID dance with her instead. What if Elizabeth had refused to hear a negative word from Wickham? Things are all different except that......more
