Synopsis

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman deserves to be the heroine of her own story. 

Charlotte Lucas has never been a romantic. Practical to a fault, she accepted Mr. Collins's proposal with clear eyes and a steady heart, trading passion for security. Life at Hunsford Parsonage may be quiet and predictable, but it is hers to manage—and she's determined to make the best of it, whatever her friend Elizabeth Bennet may think. 

That is, until an unexpected guest at nearby Rosings Park turns Charlotte's careful world on its head. He sees her, challenges her, and a spark is lit. 

Torn between what she must do and what she truly desires, Charlotte finds herself at the center of a story she never expected to be hers. A tale of love, loss, and second chances, Introducing Mrs. Collins is for anyone who wondered if there was more to the sensible character we met in Pride and Prejudice. It is the story of a woman who had written herself out of her own life and is only now daring to want more.

Goodreads review by Jillian on October 13, 2025

If you’ve read or seen P&P, you know Charlotte married a verbally incontinent clergyman well below her social intellect and likely spent the rest of her days praying her husband wouldn’t be offered another potato. As expected, being married to Mr. Collins is comparable to suffering a perpetual, low-......more

I really enjoyed this book so much. It was fun to get more of the P&P world and seeing Charlotte get her happy ending.

Goodreads review by Nancy on October 15, 2025

If a marriage lacks passion, it is to be hoped that it will make up for it in etiquette. from Introducing Mrs. Collins by Rachel Parris I am drawn to novels based on Jane Austen’s more minor characters because it’s always interesting to imagine their stories. Charlotte Lucas from Pride and Prejudice i......more
