Summary
When a modern woman finds herself reincarnated as Mary Bennet, the overlooked middle sister of Pride and Prejudice, she vows to rewrite her fate. Navigating Regency-era expectations, Mary seeks to secure her future, protect her family’s name, and perhaps find love where she least expects it. But as she battles societal norms and familial tensions, can she truly change her story?

Caroline Bingley turned to Mary, her smile brittle and forced. “Thank you, Miss Mary. Though I must say, perhaps the accompaniment was not quite… up to the task. A truly skilled player might have brought out the song’s full beauty.”
Mary, far from intimidated, met Caroline’s gaze with a serene smile, her tone light but razor-sharp. “Indeed, Miss Bingley. And yet, the pianoforte is only as good as the singing it accompanies. A curious limitation, wouldn’t you agree?”
The silence that followed was palpable, the tension crackling in the air. Caroline’s carefully maintained composure faltered, her lips pressing into a thin line.

Summary
The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.
The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.

Summary
“I want you, Mary,” he’d said one night early on, “never doubt that. I have desired you for a long time. But I can wait. Sex is not the only thing I want from you. Not even the main thing. And in the meantime, we can enjoy getting to know each other better.”
He gathered her close and spoke into her ear, “When you are ready, my dear, you have only to say the word and I am yours for the asking.”
She swallowed hard at the heat in his voice and shivered pleasurably.Mary Bennet decides what she wants. And gets it.

Summary
The room was nearly silent, only the sound of shifting bodies could be heard. Mary Bennet held her breath, her insides twisting and turning as she tried not to gather her skirt and run. Sweat pooled at the base of her hairline and tears began welling in her eyes. The hands that held hers were hot and not entirely smooth.

Summary
Everyone in Longbourn village knew the Bennets.
Mr. and Mrs. Bennet were a very strange couple with even stranger children.
6 of them. Oh yes, 6!
Mr. And Mrs. Bennet married a while back and many still wondered just how Mrs. Bennet convinced Mr. Bennet to marry her. But their children were a cause for many a gossip too.
Some wondered just when the beautiful young ladies would marry.For Mr. and Mrs. Bennet had not one, not two, not three… but six girls!
Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine, Lydia and Lilian.
All with their discerning quirks and personalities and the youngest ones almost as flighty in their way of living albeit in different styles.There was Kitty who always clung to her younger but more extroverted sister Lydia, and then the youngest one Lilian with her ability to get lost in her own world of paintings. She was an odd one, that girl. Always found with paint stained dresses and hands. Always saying the oddest things. The only one who looked just like Jane Bennet in coloring.
Was it a wonder why the Bennet family interested many as well as drew people to them??

Summary
or: Ladies, you should strive for independence! or: The OTHER Other Miss Bennet; or: Ma Chérie, Did you miss me?
Soon to be Zero-and-Twenty, Miss Catherine Bennet is bearing with a brand new sort of humiliation she never expected for herself: the one of being the last unmarried sister. Now that all (well, not ALL) of her sisters accomplished breath-taking marriages, expectations from Mrs. Bennet have never been higher. Unfortunately for her and the entirety of Bennets, Kitty was not raised to fulfill expectations.
Before she can figure out her love-life, she will need to—at least—figure out how she's going to survive in this world as a woman, rather than remaining as a stray kitten begging for scraps of her sisters.

Summary
Mary Collins (nee Bennet) sat at her writing table. Her eyes strayed to the stack of correspondence that needed attending but she could hardly focus. The weight of the day wore on her and she wished for it to be over. Today was the day she would lay her husband to rest. His body, bloated and pale, would be lowered into the ground to stay for all eternity. She blinked rapidly, trying to force tears to come but they stayed stubbornly away. She sighed and clasped her hands together, she really was a cold woman. That had been the whispers around town since her husband’s passing.

Summary
This is the journal of Mary Bennet from 1809 to 1814. Most of it runs alongside Pride and Prejudice but we are seeing it from Mary's viewpoint. She changes quite a lot from the priggish Mary you know from the original novel. Hopefully by the end you will like Mary.

Summary
Mary felt her breath catch and hold in her chest. Andrew’s words were ringing in her head. A beautiful, unreal melody that made her bruised heart beat a little faster. Her hand on his chest curled into the fabric of his coat. He wanted her. He wished for her. He was asking her if she would have him as if she were a prize to be cherished. Her lips parted and her cheeks flushed as she stared into his eyes.
“Do you mean it?” She whispered to him, her mouth dry and her stomach flipping.
