Mary leaves her sisters' shadows to find herself, embarking on a journey from Meryton to London and the Lake District. Her quest for independence leads to an unexpected love story in Regency-era England.
The Other Bennet Sister (2026)
Mary isn't your typical period drama heroine. She is awkward, anxious, preachy, full of facts, a terrible singer, overlooked by her mother and seemingly destined to an empty dance card for the rest of her life… until Mary takes matters into her own hands.
