Can fandom go too far? Alison Bateman adores Jane Austen, especially Pride and Prejudice. Within the book's pages she finds escape from everyday strife, that is until she becomes one of its characters. Instead of the beloved heroine of the novel, Alison transforms into her silly and ineffectual mother, Mrs. Bennet. Not one to be idle, she uses her new role to try and curb the unruly behavior of the youngest Bennet daughter, never suspecting the consequences her meddling will have on the romance at the heart of the novel. A story of survival in a fictional universe, Being Mrs. Bennet is a lighthearted take on Austen's classic tale. "Once again, author Alexa Adams has forged a new path and given us a story that defies the convention of Jane Austen variations and continuations." - Musings from the Yellow Kitchen "Alexa Adams is not afraid to try different and creative approaches in her books. She turns the unthinkable into reality and creates stories that readers will hardly forget." - From Pemberley to Milton "Ms. Adams has a beautiful command of language and successfully captures Jane Austen's satirical tone in her writing. I compliment Ms. Adams' on her talent for emulating Austen's voice." - Austenesque Reviews
