***Trigger Warning: This book has some spousal abuse depicted. Only the first instance is described, but not in detail, the rest are referenced. It is NOT the central theme of this book.*** The new tale is a full-length novel of more than 120,000 words. ***

This story deviates far from canon in the beginning. Except for one, all of the characters in our dear Jane Austen's masterpiece will (some we love and others we love to hate) make appearances as well as a few of my own who have been introduced in other books I have published.

The tale begins with the compromise of Thomas Bennet by a 17 year-old Fanny Gardiner. No, Bennet is NOT the abuser, even though he detests his wife. Jane, Lizzy, and Mary are born before Bennet is lost when his daughters are respectively not 3 yet, a little past 1, and 3 months of age. At that point, Fanny, who is aware of the entail and who the heir is decides to act.

As would be expected, Clem Collins comes to claim his inheritance and is not happy to find things are not as he expected.

It just so happens that when Bennet passes away and Collins arrives Edward Gardiner and Frank Phillips are away from London and Meryton respectively. This fact unintentionally changes much and leads to the act the book is named for.

The questions of who is abandoned and why, are answered in the first few chapters. The tale then follows the lives of those we have met as well as others who are introduced as we move forward. The central theme of the book is the love of family, and how family is not always defined by blood, but by love. I promise you that the despicable abuser gets his just reward.

I invite you to join me on this journey of familial love.
