“I went up to the Great House between three and four, and dawdled away an hour very comfortably....” (Jane Austen)
A holiday short story anthology with some favorite Austenesque authors, Yuletide is inspired by Jane Austen, Pride & Prejudice and the spirit of the season. Regency and contemporary alike, each romance was dreamt to spark love, humor, and wonder while you dawdle over a hot cup of tea this Christmas.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“Harry Frost is amazing! I could listen to him over and over again, and while I am writing this I am on my third go round with this book.” (Jane Austen Runs My Life)
“Gave me butterflies.... Each story felt entirely unique from the others, while still cohesive in context of the theme, and the different approaches mean that there's likely to be a story here to suit most Janeites. The book feels tightly and thoughtfully curated, and I did, in fact, discover some authors whose JAFF I now want to look into!” (The Book Rat)
“He [narrator Harry Frost] has great versatility with historical and modern time, gender, age, class, and accents. He caught the tone so well of each story whether humor or drama. I would definitely listen to more of his work. ...I smiled, laughed, and felt my heart flutter and felt the spirit of Christmas through and through.” (Sophia Rose, Hot Listens)

Yuletide is a collection of Austenesque tales, some based in Regency England, others set in contemporary America, all focused on how the spirit of the season impacts our beloved Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Penned by some of the strongest writers in the Austenesque community, these stories each present a slightly different take on Jane Austen's characters. Henry Frost skillfully accentuates these differences with subtle changes in his voice. I especially loved hearing his variations on Darcy: sometimes rude and arrogant, other times joyfully in love, always compelling, thanks to Frost's deep, sonorous voice.
I had so much fun listening to these stories! They were the perfect way of getting into the holiday spirit--that is to say, the spirit I wish I could claim all year round, for really, these are stories about friends, family, and the kind of love that transcends time and place. Be it December or July, take a listen--especially if you're an Austenesque reader looking for a reason to hope and to smile.
Superb narration for these delightful stories!

What could be more deliciously, heartwarming than a collection of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice-inspired stories set around the Christmas holiday? Seven authors give us an engaging variety of stories from historical to modern, variation to sequel, and a bit of holiday magic to bring a cozy feeling and smile to reader's faces. And, it was sheer delight to have the fabulous Harry Frost doing the narration work.
The first story asks 'What if Darcy returns to Netherfield, the weather keeps him stranded, and he spends that fateful Christmas with the Bennets instead of in London? A snowed in setting is just the thing to get an out of tune pair a chance to right their misunderstandings.
Then, we fast forward a decade to visit Pemberley at Christmas for a reunion as witnessed from sweet Georgiana's point of view. Georgie has her own special surprise to share with her husband against the backdrop of heartwarming tradition and extended family antics.
A modern story with a magical wishing ornament shows Darcy a future happiness that he never knew to wish for and wants beyond anything now. It aids him getting past that unsuccessful first meet and the inevitable misunderstandings.
A sequel story has Darcy and Elizabeth visiting Rosings over the holidays and Elizabeth determinedly sets out to make Anne De Bourgh a friend to surprising results.
A romantic comedy for a modern Darcy and Elizabeth during a New England snow storm involving a Homespun gift, a quirky family, and much laughter.
Jane and Lizzy have a Yorkshire Christmas visit they will not soon forget when they encounter a certain Colonel Fitzwilliam who gives Lizzy perspective on her perceived wrongs from Mr. Darcy.
Oh my, the hijinks ensue when the relatives come for a Pemberley Christmas and Elizabeth discovers that Darcy might have one or two family embarrassments of his own. Christmas comedies can be such fun romps.
This was not my first encounter with Harry Frost's work. He has great versatility with historical and modern time, gender, age, class, and accents. He caught the tone so well of each story whether humor or drama.
Generally, I enjoy some over others when it comes to anthology collections, but that was not the case here. Each story was fabulous in its own unique way. I smiled, laughed, and felt my heart flutter and felt the spirit of Christmas through and through. I do believe there will be a little something for everyone who enjoys holiday romance inspired by a classic.
