What awaited Elizabeth Bennet after her marriage to Mr. Darcy? This richly imagined continuation of Pride and Prejudice begins where Jane Austen’s beloved novel ends. Told in Elizabeth’s own voice, it follows her through the opening months of married life: her arrival in London, the pleasures and perils of her first Season in 1813, the demands of family loyalty, and the discoveries of love newly tested by society’s expectations. Written with wit, warmth, and fidelity to Austen’s spirit, Becoming Mrs. Darcy returns readers to the company of Elizabeth and Darcy – not as figures frozen at the close of a tale, but as living characters whose story is only beginning. Volume I spans the first three months of 1813, from January to March, and includes an essential timeline and historical references in the Appendix. From Julia B. Grantham, author of Mr. Darcy’s Guide to Pemberley . Praise for Becoming Mrs. Darcy : "It is a beautifully written story. Immersive and totally credible, it captures the spirit and authenticity of the characters so perfectly, you half expect Mr Darcy to walk into the room where you are reading." — Cass Grafton, Author “This book is an absolute delight. JB Grantham’s deep love for Jane Austen’s masterpiece shines through. Each character is faithfully portrayed, and it’s wonderful to hear Elizabeth’s voice ringing clear and true. I loved every word, and can’t wait for the next instalment!” — Joana Starnes, Author “You have the ability to transport us back to the 19th century, and to speak with assurance through the voice of Elizabeth Darcy. Pure escapism!” — Jane Glover “As always, regarding a story that ends, ‘and they lived happily ever after,’ one wonders, ‘but what happened next?’ … It is such a pleasure to read ‘what happened next’ in Pride and Prejudice through this excellent storyteller.” — Judith Howard “I feel as though I am reading another novel by Jane Austen, continuing the lives of the people in Pride and Prejudice . The actions and dialogue ring true to the original characters, and the plot keeps me just as engaged.” — Marie Giacobetti “This is one of the most delightful continuations of Pride & Prejudice I have read.” — Edwin Nealley
