About The Scarred Duchess:

The Scarred Duchess — The Author’s Expanded Edition   When beauty is broken and honour tested, love must learn to endure.   “Her Majesty has made me the enemy of every young lady seeking a husband and the target of every rake seeking a conquest.”   Once the most admired woman in Hertfordshire, Jane Bennet’s world shatters soon after her betrothal is announced. A visit to London to celebrate her trousseau ends in tragedy, altering not only her face but her destiny. Once envied, she becomes pitied, scorned, and—believing happiness forever lost—withdraws from society’s gaze.   Years earlier, her father, Thomas Bennet, returned from war a man haunted by the comrades who paid his ransom. Now his peace—and his family—are threatened when the man his daughter loves brings his own enemies to their door.   As old alliances return and rivalries sharpen into vengeance, Jane’s quiet battle to reclaim her spirit becomes her greatest triumph. History marked her scars, yet it was her strength that endured—captured in paint and in whispers as The Scarred Duchess.   This Expanded Edition is the author’s definitive cut—new chapters, richer histories, and scenes of passion, peril, and grace. A Pride and Prejudice reimagining that proves love endures beyond beauty, and that even the most wounded hearts may heal.

About the Author:

  Barry S. Richman combines his background in the armed forces and expertise with a passion for Pride and Prejudice retellings. After two decades of exploring countless stories from the JAFF universe, his wife challenged him to try writing one. During a trip to Istanbul, Barry wrote four pages that wove his real-world experiences into alternate-universe stories inspired by Jane Austen’s characters. He continued from there. He published his first novel, Doubt Not, Cousin, in 2023, followed by The Scarred Duchess in 2024. Follow The Drum continues his military-influenced alternate universe populated by characters familiar and new. Barry and his “Jane Bennet” divide their time between Los Angeles and a seaside town in southwestern Turkey.
