All four novels from the Bennet Sisters series: taking fate for a wild spin.
1) LIZ: Pride, Prejudice, and Push-Up Bras 2) MARY: Being Mary Bennet Blows 3) CAT: Cat Bennet, Queen of Nothing 4) LYDIA: Livin' La Vida Bennet
Five teenage sisters named after the Bennet sisters in Pride and Prejudice take on fate - and Jane Austen - after two gorgeous guys named Bingham and Darcy show up in their Minnesota town and their whole world is turned upside down. But what's a girl to do? Fight? Or . . . surrender?
Mary Strand practiced law in a large Minneapolis firm until the day she set aside her pointy-toed shoes (or most of them) and escaped the world of mergers and acquisitions to write novels. The first manuscript she wrote, Cooper’s Folly, a romantic comedy, won RWA’s Golden Heart award and was her debut novel. Her love of Jane Austen prompted her four-book YA series, The Bennet Sisters.
Seemingly Perfect is her third novel in The Pendulum Trilogy of women's fiction novels.
Mary lives on a lake in Minneapolis with her family, too many Converse Chucks, and a stuffed monkey named Philip. When not writing books or songs, she lives for sports, travel, rocking out on guitar, dancing (badly), and ill-advised adventures (including dancing) that offer a high probability of injury to herself and others.
Mary writes YA, romantic comedy, women’s fiction, and children's sports novels. You can find her at www.marystrand.com, follow her on Twitter or Instagram (@Mary_Strand), or “like” her on Facebook (www.facebook.com/marystrandauthor).
