Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley
THE STORY: A sequel to Jane Austen’s
Pride and Prejudice set two years after the novel ends, MISS BENNET continues the story, only this time with bookish middle-sister Mary as its unlikely heroine. Mary is growing tired of her role as dutiful middle sister in the face of her siblings’ romantic escapades. When the family gathers for Christmas at Pemberley, an unexpected guest sparks Mary’s hopes for independence, an intellectual match, and possibly even love.
Part of the Pemberley trilogy with
The Wickhams: Christmas at Pemberley and
Georgiana and Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley.
