Publisher's Summary:
Based on the enduring characters created by Jane Austen, this is a contemporary spin on a classic tale of love denied, and love discovered.
Under the guise of honeymooning, Mr. and Mrs. Darcy set off to save a quartet of domestic maids being held hostage in London and to return the legendary Red Rosary to the Templars' treasure vaults. Can they avoid Caroline Bingley, evade the sinister men from Rome, and will they ever get to enjoy their honeymoon?
Members Reviews:
An Interesting Take on Mr. Darcy
This is the fist book I have listened to by this author. I have listened to others who have continued Mr. and Mrs. Darcy's story. this was one of the more interesting ones because it was set in modern times with all of the spy equipment and macinations that go along with a rich spy who loves his wife.
The interactions between them and their dogs is a bit funny. Mrs. Darcy or Lizzy is a dog psychologist of all things. Yet she likes an adventure as much as Mr. Darcy. This adventure included not one or two dog but four dogs, to childen and five grown adults riding in one landrover that is also equipped with many special compartments.
I was provided this book by the author for an honest review. I would recommend this book if you are a fan of the Darcys but a modern day version of them. Audiobook blast provided the book.
You won't BELIEVE the crowd that goes along!
Another bit of great fun in the modern life of Lizzie and Mister Darcy. After six months of marriage, Darcy announces that they will go on a Honeymoon. Lizzie is thinking the Maldives. Darcy announces that it will be Scotland first, as he has an errand to run for the Templars. Okay. But her sister Mary phones in the middle of the night with a major problem involving a new villainess, so Lizzie goes to help, and this results in an 8 hour trip to Edinburgh accompanied by four victims, two children, and four dogs. Along the way they are accosted by two previous villains, the awful Caroline, and the new villainess. There is lots of snark, awful puns, and real silliness. This series is really too much fun to miss, and each book is not too long.
Jannie Meisberger is an excellent voice performer and this book demonstrates it clearly.
A honeymoon, finally?
I am not a fan of modern Darcy/Lizzy stories, but this grouping of stories by Barbara Silkstone takes the cake. Mister Darcy's Honeymoon has the angst you expect with a dose of comedy that keeps you on your toes. The Vatican is after the Templar's Red Rosary and foreign domestic servants being held against their will by their employers are being pursued by the head of a human trafficking conglomeration. The Darcys need to get them to Scotland with Little Annie and her dog Sammy as well as Derby, Squire, and Boris. Add Caroline Bingley to the group, who is hated by Derby and Squire, stuck in close quarters while trying to evade their pursuers and you have a candidate for a diversion. This was a fun story. Jannie Meisberger does a wonderful job bringing the characters and situations to life. Her character's voices have continuity throughout the series. I recommend this story to anyone who loves Darcy and Elizabeth and wants to laugh.
Even better with the narration!
What did you love best about Mister Darcy's Honeymoon?
I love the book, but this narrator brings the world of Darcy & Lizzie to life in a way that the books simply cannot.
