About this audiobook
What single gentleman of a large fortune, with sense and education and knowledge of the world, would not wish to have his cake and eat it too?
Mr. Darcy comes to realize the reason it's seldom possible when he hires Miss Elizabeth Bennet—whose situation is dire after her father's passing—as his sister's paid companion.
Can two strong-willed people live amicably under the same roof, or will their passions explode into something wonderful?
Follow Mr. Darcy's journey from a man who is proud and haughty to one who seeks to please a woman worthy of being pleased.
What listeners have said:
“I had the privilege to be swept away into PO Dixon's To Have His Cake (and Eat It Too) on a recent cross-country driving trip. It was the only thing that could keep me not only awake but enthralled. It was wonderful! The story is sweeping and enchanting and the narration FLAWLESS!”
“This was such a delightful twist on my favorite story of Pride and Prejudice.”
“A captivating listen that is sure to please!”
“The story is pure enchantment and Pearl Hewitt is a superb reader. Her reading of Darcy's words, while he makes passionate love to Lizzy, will have you melting like butter on a warm summer's day. Brilliantly written and brilliantly read.”
Intended for Mature Audiences. Contains explicit scenes between consenting adults.
