LF Stories where other Bennet Sisters marry into Nobility.
Just read More Than a Pretty Face by Frances Reynolds. Following Jane's visit to the Bingley sisters, She is heartbroken decides to stay>!with the Gardiners cause their aunt has a bad pregnancy and becomes acquainted with one client, Henry Markham, the Earl of Lyfford. !< As such, Jane Bennet becomes a countess after marrying him. Jane here demonstrates her caring nature with helping Mrs. Gardiner with her health and shows her intelligence that proves the title correct.
Following this, I then read The Odd Duck's Quest in FF.net, a crossover fanfiction with Mary Bennet as the lead. Mary Bennet strives to be better. She doesn't want to live off the charity of her married sisters or the unwelcoming Longbourn. What is her solution? >!Find an occupation and become a companion to a matron. Good thing that Mary has a good employer and just introduces Mary as a friend when they arrive at the society of Mansfield Park.!< In the end, Mary marries >!Tom Bertram!<and becomes a Lady of a Baronet. Mary has built an amazing friendship with Georgiana and Susan in this story and I love her and Tom's love story here.
An amazing quote from there
>!"I understand that you found her quite changed from the sister you remember... For some of us, character and tastes are fixed early in life. Your sister and I have this in common: it took us longer to grow into the person we needed to become. In my case, she was instrumental in my reformation... [Where] Even when she listed all my flaws- when my failures were so obvious to her- she trusted in my capacity to overcome them."!<
Then I started Reading Shemelle's works again. I love Kitty's dynamics with Lord Ashbourne. Their story doesn't start from disdain and that is a plus for me. Kitty's Joie de vivre is infectious and we understand why Lord Ashbourne loves her.
So I started to see a pattern and wanted to make a list where the other Bennet sibling marry into nobilty cause why not!
TLDR: I am looking for stories where the other Bennet Siblings marry into Nobility cause I am sure there is a lot I haven't read yet. The following is the list of the stories I know.
Jane
- More Than a Pretty Face by Frances Reynolds - Explained above
Mary
- The Odd Duck's Quest in FF.net - I really love this story since Mary and Tom form a friendship that becomes dear to them both. I love how Mary took the steps to be better than she was before. Tom rising to Mary's challenge and concern is also heartwwarming.
- Shemmelle's Stories (The Christian Effect, Marriage Is A Mistake Every Man Should Make)
- Mary marries a rakish Baron, Sir Christian Montgomery. It is a fun one-shot and only a side pairing but I love how she is the very picture of methinks the lady doth protest too much. Mary pointedly doesnt think how attractive he is and also how his attention makes her blush.
- Leenie Brown's No Other Choice and Persuading Mary has her marrying Darcy's Cousin (An Earl in No Other Choice/ A Viscount Cousin in Persuading Miss Mary). The two stories are the two being argumentative with each other.
- Thorough-bass and human nature - A one-shot fanfiction. Has Mary stay with the Darcy's in London where she meets an awkward Mr West in a ball when the two wanted to hide in a crowd. Lydia and Wickham are also here and where the two have the dynamics of partners in crime. Mary and Mr West is cute here tho not all is fluff when we discover that >!Mr West is actually Viscount Westmorland who is said to be engaged already. !<
- Mary Bennet, Duchess of Blackthorne - Ongoing Fanfic where a marriage contract from long ago means Mary is sent off to fulfill this duty and it turns out she is going to be a Duchess. No one knew lmao. It is more slice of life with Mary adapting to her life as a Duchess though the romance seems promising.
- Her Virtue is Worth More Than Rubies - More of a side pairing and an Ongoing Fic. The main character is a modern woman isekai-ed into Mrs. Bennet. Subsequent changes is Jane having a twin brother, Henry. Mary becomes the love interest of Henry's roommate, George Anderson who is the heir to an earldom. Story so far focused on Mrs Bennet then Henry's love story.
Kitty
- Shemmelle's Stories (Introducing Puck, Marriage Is A Mistake Every Man Should Make , The End is Where We Start From, A Hit, A Very Palpable Hit, The Brighton Effect )
- Stories feature Kitty with Kitty / Darcy’s Cousin the Viscount. All stories revolve around her and Lord Ashbourne's love story but each story varies enough. Same characters but different situations and circumstances. I love how Kitty's silliness is presented as a joie de vivre and how she is very charming but she is not without fears as well.
- Kitty Comes Into Her Own - Before Pride and Prejudice timeline, Kitty decides to improve herself and develops a deeper sisterly bond with Mary. She later ends up marrying the Earl of Stafford. How it happened?>! Kitty spends a time with Mary's mother-in-law where she rescues a young woman and her party that underwent a carriage accident. She becomes acquainted with her family and is invited to london under their sponsor. !<
- Mrs. Gardiner Takes a Hand by Jeannie Peneaux - One of the many situation altered by Mrs Bennet being at Bath and Mrs. Gardiner being in Longbourn. A mishap in Kitty's letters garners the interest of botanist, John Radclyffe when he saw Kitty's drawings of the plant life of Hertfordshire. It just so happened that he seems to be the earl of Newsham. Upon an invite from Mr. Bennet (who he corresponded with after the mishap), he journeys to Longbourn where he and Kitty have common interest and ends up marrying each other.
- Timing Her Love Very Ill - Sequel to Too Generous A Soul. Kitty marries Bingley's friend, Sir Jasper Longbottom. Love this story!
- The Connections of Miss Catherine Bennet: A Pride and Prejudice Sequel - Kitty gains the attention of the Marquess of the Isle of Wight. It is not all butterflies and happy ending when Kitty learns she is pursued due to a wager.
- Countess Catherine Bennet - Where Kitty marries Colonel Fitzwilliam who is the new Earl. I havent read this yet but I should put it here.
- Reinaytany's The Quiet Miss Bennet and Sense and Spark are both ongoing fanfics post P&P.
- On Bleaklow Moor - Ongoing Fic, Kitty stays in Pemberly and meets a duke. I havent't read it yet but i want to include this here.
