Overview: I have always been a bookworm.
In 2018 I discovered Fan Fiction and stumbled onto Pride & Prejudice. I loved many of the stories, but often wished the characters would behave differently. I kept thinking about Elizabeth’s reaction at the assembly, wondering how I would like her to respond. I jotted down bits of conversations and ‘Don’t flatter yourself’ was born. Encouraged by the other readers I decided to publish my story. It turned out that other people liked it too.
I had so much fun writing Don’t flatter yourself, and receiving the positive responses, that I continued writing other stories

1. Mrs Bennet’s Surprising Connections: Prequel to ‘Don’t flatter yourself’ .ePUB
A Pride and Prejudice Variation spin-off.In ‘Don’t flatter yourself’ the second Mrs Bennet kept quiet about her aristocratic background. This book follows the lives of Lady Francine and Thomas Bennet. Her early life, their initial meeting, their disastrous first marriages and the life they built together. This is the story of Mrs Bennet’s family, both the aristocratic one and the genteel one she married into. And it fills in some of the blanks about the personalities described in ‘Don’t flatter yourself’.

Sequel to ‘Don’t flatter yourself’ – A Pride & Prejudice Variation
5 & 6 Don’t flatter yourself – Revisited: The alternate version of this Pride & Prejudice Variation (1st .ePUB and 2nd editions .MoBI)
When I came up with the concept for ‘Don’t flatter yourself’, I had two options.
One, in which Mrs Francine Bennet played down the fact of her background, which made Darcy think Elizabeth was beneath him.
Two, in which Lady Francine and Lady Elizabeth were open about their status (although maybe not about the extent of Elizabeth’s dowry) and Darcy has no hesitation about wanting to court Elizabeth.
I decided to write version one, but the second version wouldn’t leave me in peace and wanted to be written as well.
So here it is.

Will Mr Darcy’s pride still be an issue?
Or will Lady Elizabeth’s prejudice be a problem?

7 Lady Alexandra’s Hunt: A Regency Romance about one lady’s hunt for love .MoBI
Lady Alexandra Hunt, the Countess of Herne came from a peculiar family. As far back as anyone could trace, each generation had ever only one son until the current generation when there was no brother to carry on the family name.
As a result, she inherited the title, and all that went with it. She had everything – intelligence, beauty, wealth, and position.
When she came out into society, she was the target of every fortune-hunter in town who thought she could be flattered or bullied into marriage.
But Lady Alexandra was not interested in either the flatterers or the bullies. She was looking for love and respect.
Lord Sir Marcus Scott, Baron of Vintington was intelligent, passably good looking and moderately wealthy.
He was a scholar and spent most of his time on his estate tinkering with his inventions. But, when necessary, he could explode into action.
He was confident in himself and his abilities – except when it came to the lady he loved.
When they met, he thought that Lady Alexandra was perfection but completely out of his league and was content to be counted her friend.
Lady Alexandra disagreed – and the hunt was on.
While this story is set in the P&P universe of the Denton Connection and some of the characters from those stories make cameo appearances, it is completely original and can be read as a standalone.
