Mary's Secrets

Name: Mary's Secrets
Author: Elaine Burkett

44 pages

This is a sequel to Pride and Prejudice which focuses entirely on Mary Bennet, following her growth as she finds her own place in the world once she is no longer being constantly compared to her sisters.

The story starts on Elizabeth’s wedding day, though the momentous event is viewed through Mary’s jaded eyes rather than Elizabeth’s joyous eyes. Though the story begins there, it eventually spans a period of more than four years as Mary learns to treat herself with the love and respect no one else seems willing to give her.
Of course, there is a happy ending where Mary weds a gentleman who completely appreciates and utterly adores her true nature, but the road to that ending is a bit rocky, made all the more so by the secrets both Mary and our hero keep to themselves.
