Six Novels, Six Women, Six Secret Diaries.
Jane Austen’s novels spotlight the romantic triumphs of her principled heroines. Yet, within the pages also dwell the audacious ladies who ditch decorum and surrender to their passions, often chasing the charms of dashing young men and social advancement.
From the bold pursuits of Lydia in Pride and Prejudice to Lucy Steele’s cunning schemes in Sense and Sensibility, these diaries shed light on the unspoken challenges and desires that drive them. Reconsider what it truly means to be a "bad girl" in a world governed by strict societal expectations as these defiant voices rewrite their own narratives, challenging the boundaries of Austen's Regency-era England.
Celebrating the gloriously greedy, brazen, and scandalous women of Austen, these six stories will have you cheering for the bad girl.
My Story
A. L. Ady (Pronounced /ā-dee/)
A. L. Ady is a woman of particular tastes and refined sensibilities. When she is not sipping tea in the garden reading a Jane Austen novel, she can found curled up in a wing-back chair with a laptop, drinking iced coffee and writing regency romances.
IN THE PRESS
Love Jane Austen’s stories?!?! Ever written in a diary?!?! Bad Boys?!?! Always wondered what happened when Lydia jets off with Bad Boy Wickham with no regard to her family’s reputation?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you HAVE to pick up this book!!!
I LOVED this novella comprised of short stories from Jane Austen’s characters! A.L. Ady has written a wonderful adaptation of what would be quite the scandal from Austen’s bad boy characters and the less than proper females.
A.L. Ady takes the innocence of hand holding and hip grazing to a whole new level of what would definitely be considered "bad behavior" category back during the Jane Austen era! This read is a must-summer beach read! I am more than inspired to read more of Jane Austen’s novels this summer, but I will wish for an adaptation by A.L. Ady!
