Description
Details of the three full-length novels:
Darcy
Pride and Prejudice from a different point of view—Darcy’s—with an enhanced role for Mary Bennet and many scenes missing from the original. These include his tour to Rome, his shock upon learning of sister’s plans to elope to Scotland with Wickham and his discovery of Wickham and Lydia in London.
This novel was honored at the 2024 London Book Fair in the UK Selfies Book Awards, and won Gold in the NIEA, Pencraft, Global and Incipere Book Awards. “Witty, delectable, sparkling.” —Publishers Weekly.
Susan
An imagining of Austen’s manipulative Lady Susan (of Austen’s early novella Lady Susan) at just sixteen. Expelled from an exclusive London academy for young ladies, Susan attracts the formidable Lady Catherine de Bourgh as patroness, and catches the fancy of the handsome Frank Churchill, fully a year before he first encounters Jane Fairfax . . .
Susan was a starred “Editors Pick” and a quarterfinalist in Publisher Weekly’s Booklife Prize 2021, as well as Gold medallist in the Global, eLit and Incipere Book Awards. “McVeigh’s prose and plotting are pitch perfect—she echoes the master herself.” —Publishers Weekly
Harriet
A rather more clued-up Harriet Smith is secretly determined to marry a gentleman. And who better to assist her ambition than Miss Woodhouse, the envied queen of Highbury? This is Emma, but described from the dual points of view of Harriet and Jane Fairfax.
Harriet—really, it should have been called Jane and Harriet—was a runner-up in the 2022 Foreword Indies’ “Book of the Year” and won not only the Gold Medal in the Historical Fiction Society Awards 2023, but also bronze in the Independent Publishers Book Awards (the “IPPYs”). “While this title will be catnip to dedicated Austen fans, even new initiates will be captivated.” —Publishers Weekly
These three standalones can be enjoyed in any order. Capture all three today—and fall in love with your favourite Austen characters all over again!
