All Charlotte wanted for Christmas was a marriage of convenience. Instead, she got a murder victim and a husband with amnesia. When Charlotte Lucas accepts Mr. Collins’s proposal, she thinks her future in Austen Heights is mapped marry the fae pastor in a tidy arrangement to get her family off her back, open her dream candle shop, and keep her heart under lock and key. But on their wedding night, she finds her husband standing over a dead body, and he doesn’t remember the murder… or their marriage. Charlotte suspects the key to the killer’s identity is buried in the fog of his amnesia. To solve the case, she’ll have to team up with him even though he’s clueless, earnest, and far too fond of giving compliments. Worse still? She’s starting to find him endearing. When someone steals the magical star protecting the town days before the tree-lighting ceremony, the stakes turn deadly. As danger creeps closer, Charlotte must choose between the safety of a lie and the risk of something real—because to stop a killer and save Christmas, she’ll have to open her heart to uncover the truth. Pride and Prejudice and Potions is a collection of modern standalone cozy mysteries that retells the greatest love story of all time while revealing the secrets lurking beneath. Across twelve enchanting tales of entangled hearts, discover the stories that were never told and get to know these beloved characters like never before. Even Jane Austen couldn't have predicted this season of scandal and sorcery. (This book contains no spice and no language.)

My name is Laura M. Drake, and I'm the youngest of five kids. I grew up in Arkansas and moved to Utah to attend Brigham Young University. After spending three summers abroad in France, Japan, and China, I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education and began teaching 4th grade near Salt Lake City. A few years later I moved back to Japan to fulfill a life-long dream of living there. When Covid got bad, I came back to America and have been living in Arkansas and writing full-time ever since. I'll soon be moving to UT and look forward to the new adventures that await me there. When I'm not writing (which isn't very often—I should probably get a life haha) I love playing ultimate frisbee, board games, writing in my journal, and spending time with friends and family.
