Lieutenant Bennet: A Pride & Prejudice Variation - Paperback

What if Elizabeth Bennet took her cousin's name and his place in the army?

When Napoleon's war creeps closer to Hertfordshire, every parish is ordered to supply men for the militia. Whispers of a draft spread fear through Meryton, and every family wonders who will be called next. Elizabeth Bennet refuses to sit idle while her household is measured and found wanting. Instead, she seizes upon a daring to claim the name of her dead cousin, Thomas Bennet, and enlist in disguise.

Together with her loyal friend William Lucas, Elizabeth exchanges petticoats for breeches and enters a world of drills, danger, and deception. Passing as a young lieutenant is harder than she imagined, and grows riskier still under the sharp eye of Major Darcy, who seems determined to uncover what others miss.

Inspired by the legend of Mulan, reimagined in Regency England, Lieutenant Bennet is a bold tale of disguise, devotion, and the courage to fight for more than one's own destiny.
