Wretched Beginnings, 1812

by Mother of Pearl Fetish

Mary Bennet attended her gardens, stillroom, books, pianoforte and her quiet life. However, the bumbling Mr. Collins compromises her. Seeing a chance to get away from her mother, Mary quickly agrees to the rushed marriage. Only…why does Lady Catherine de Bourgh insist Mr. Collins marry one of his cousins? Why hasn't Anne de Bourgh been cured? Warning: strong, likeable Mary.

Wretched Beginnings 1812 - Author's Note

Continue to read about my strong Mary Bennet Collins character in Wretched Beginnings 1813. Prepare a tea tray…there's more to the journey.

Lady Catherine has experienced an apoplectic fit. There are changes for the de Bourgh, Fitzwilliam, Darcy, Bennet, Bingley and Collins families.

How does Mr. Collins handle all the disappointments in store for him?

Can Miss Anne make changes to Rosings Park which will keep the boards together?

Will Mary have a son to inherit Longbourn?

We have not heard the last of Caroline Bingley…George Wickham…and unless she were gagged…we have not heard the last of Mrs. Bennet!

Strong female characters. Again Jane Austen owns the P&P plots, characters, etc. Pinterest board: pinterest dot com/jtspraggins/fanfiction-wretched-beginnings/
