Through Every Storm: A Pride and Prejudice Novella (Darcy and. A Pride and Prejudice Variations Collection Book 4) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 159 ratings

Forced to marry. Deeply in love. If only each knew the other's heart.

A gambler, a profligate and forcibly married to the silly daughter of a country gentleman, no one expected George Wickham to amount to much, nor did they expect him to fall deeply in love with his wife. When that wife takes an unplanned trip in the company of another gentleman, leaving Wickham and her children behind, he will be forced to face his fears and fight for those he holds dear.

When her funds run low, Lydia Wickham chooses to travel to Derbyshire to seek help from her sister. What she finds when her husband arrives to take her home is not the kind of help she expected, but exactly the kind she needs. Will she be able to overcome her shortcomings and prove herself worthy of the one person she cannot bear to disappoint?

Through Every Storm is just one of Leenie Brown's numerous Pride and Prejudice variations. If you like well-written stories of sweet redemption, then you will love this story about a couple whom everyone discarded as hopeless finding the help they need to save their love and claim a happily ever after that seemed lost forever.

So, put the kettle on, pick up your copy of Through Every Storm, and step into a sweet romance, set eight years after the close of Pride and Prejudice, that is filled with trials and fears and tinged with the vibrant hues of hope, redemption, and love that is worth fighting for.

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

At the end of Mansfield Park, Jane Austen wrote:
Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. I quit such odious subjects as soon as I can, impatient to restore everybody not greatly in fault themselves to tolerable comfort and to have done with all the rest.My goal in writing this sequel to Pride and Prejudice is to take up my pen and continue the story of two of Austen's characters who were at fault in some way in Pride and Prejudice. In this story of redemption and reformation, I do not look to dwell on the characters' guilt and misery so much as help them find a way to overcome their failures and find their own happiness.

    Mrs. Lydia Wickham, nee Bennet, is still as self-centered as she has always been. Now, her thoughtless behavior will have to be dealt with. Is her husband up to the task? With the assistance of his friend and brother-in-law , Mr. Denny, as well as support from his brother-in-law, Mr. Darcy , Wickham has a plan to both adjust his wife's behavior. That will also help her see that her actions have consequences that can adversely affect other members of her family, including her own children. His plan is quite inventive and calls for sacrifice on both sides. Sit back, relax ,and enjoy this wonderful story.

    Very good look at Lydia and George's life after a few years of marriage. It is amazing how having children can cause a person to see their life for what it is and what it needs to be. This is a good story of hope in a future that can be if all the parties will pull together and give it their best try. Both George and Lydia need someone to help them become a real team instead of two strong individuals thinking only of themselves. I really enjoyed this different slant on these two characters that we usually love to hate.

    Great job Lennie and glad that you gave this different look into the life of these minor characters. If you require a lot of Darcy and Lizzy, this book might not be for you. But if you would like to see a couple who everyone discards as hopeless, try to make a go of it...join us and you will be pleased with the read.

    Wickham as a loving husband and father? A Lydia who learns from her mistakes and grows up? I never imagined these were possible, but Leenie Brown makes it come true in her lovely novella "Through Every Storm."

    Becoming a father deeply changed Wickham, making him realize that he didn't want his son to grow up like him, or his daughter to be treated by men the way he had treated other women. In the eight years since Pride and Prejudice ended, he has turned his life around, regretting the man he had been before. Lydia, however, is still up to her old habits. When she runs off with a man who isn't her husband, Wickham must bring her home and show love to his wife in a way he never had before, by teaching her the things she ought to have learnt long before.

    A beautiful story reminiscent of Hosea from the Bible, with themes about forgiveness and the true meaning of love.

    For a very young girl, she has managed to garner the love of a snake. Wickham is a very different character in this story, turned his life around because of his love for Lydia. Interesting concept. I liked it.

    What a wonderful, short pick me up! There were a few small editing issues, but I liked it enough to still give it 5 stars. Lydia and Wickham are definitely not characters I usually enjoy!

    Very good story about the developing love between Lydia and Wickham. Lydia finally faces the consequences of her actions and learns from her mistakes. Although there is mention of Darcy and Elizabeth, they are not really heard from as this is clearly not their story. I knew this from the synopsis but I did hope.

    Five stars for this story because she always keeps to the characters. You can always imagine them doing what she writes for them. Most times it's something you've always wanted to have happen for them. She makes wonderful alternatives happen.

    4.0 out of 5 stars I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
    Reviewed in Canada on April 22, 2016
    A reformed George Wickham bringing Lydia to task...this I had to read! I certainly was not disappointed either in this short but rather moving novella. This story takes place 10 years after Wickham is forced and paid to marry Lydia. They are parents to two children still living in Newcastle. However, George is no longer in the Regulars but a shop owner! Lydia has gone off to Pemberley in the company of another soldier and no chaperone. Wickham is devastated.

    I was delighted with the premise and the outcome of this story. Kitty and Captain Denny play a large role in this story showing how maturity and the influence of her older sisters helped her become the woman she is. I truly delighted in these two characters.

    I highly recommend this story to JAFF lovers. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

    Dissapointingly short. The idea behind this story had potential for humor and pathos, Instead everything got tide up neat and quick. Its simple not this easy to change a lifetime worth of habits. A mildly pleasent very short story.
