Leenie Brown has always been a girl with an active imagination, which, while growing up, was a both an asset, providing many hours of fun as she played out stories, and a liability, when her older sister and aunt would tell her frightening tales. At one time, they had her convinced Dracula lived in the trunk at the end of the bed she slept in when visiting her grandparents!
Although it has been years since she cowered in her bed in her grandparents’ basement, she still has an imagination which occasionally runs away with her, and she feeds it now as she did then ─ by reading!
Her heroes, when growing up, were authors, and the worlds they painted with words were (and still are) her favourite playgrounds! She was that child, under the covers with the flashlight, reading until the wee hours of the morning…and pretending not to be tired the next day so her mother wouldn’t find out.
In addition to feeding her imagination, she also exercises it ─ by writing. While writing has been an activity she has dabbled in over the years, it blossomed into a full-fledged obsession when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. Leenie had first fallen in love with Jane Austen's work in her early teens when she was captivated by the tale of a girl, who like her, was the second born of five daughters. Now, as an adult, she spends much time in the regency world, playing with the characters from her favourite Jane Austen novels and a few that are of her own creation.
When she is not traipsing down a trail in an attempt to keep up with her imagination, Leenie resides in the beautiful province of Nova Scotia with her two sons and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with a healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tilney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

When overcoming the past and charting a new path, the potential for disaster is great.
However, with the help of friends and a dose of love, what seems to be an insurmountable challenge for the heroes and heroines in these three stories will prove to be the most rewarding struggle of their lives.
Henry: To Prove Himself Worthy
A gentleman with Henry Crawford's reputation is not the sort of man for whom Constance Linton seeks, yet she is not opposed to lending him her aid in achieving his desires. However, the scheme is not without its dangers and when hearts become entangled, will Henry be able to prove himself worthy of a lady such as Constance, or will not only his own heart and reputation but also that of his friend and tutor be irreparably damaged?
Charles: To Discover His Purpose
All Charles Edwards thought he wanted was a kiss. One kiss from the lovely and very proper Evelyn Barret. Nothing more. However, after spending time with Evelyn, he finds out he was wrong. Very, very wrong. There is so much more his heart desires, and he finds himself at the beginning of a new scheme and direction for his life until his scandalous past threatens to dash his hopes and shatter his heart.
Mary: To Protect Her Heart
Mary Crawford has never met a gentleman quite like Gabriel Durward. He seems impervious to her usual ploys, never prevaricates or flaunts himself as so many others have, and even though he knows her faults, he still chooses her without any need to be persuaded to do so. It is enough for Mary to begin to unlock her heart and believe that there is at least one man whom she can trust. However, when nefarious plans are put into action, Mary's fledgling trust will be tested, and fear will raise its ugly head, tempting her to retreat. Will Gabe be able to survive the onslaught and finally prove to Mary that she can trust him to protect her heart with his very life?
Leenie Brown's Other Pens Series begins where Jane Austen left off at the end of Mansfield Park. If you like tales of transformation with swoon-worthy heroes and strong yet vulnerable heroines then you will enjoy this bundle of three sweet Regency romances about both facing the challenges that reformation can bring and discovering the pleasure that only deep, abiding love can provide.
So, put the kettle on, grab your copy of Other Pens, Vol. 1 (Books 1 -3), and let Henry's, Charles', and Mary's stories inspire hope that even the most reprobate, wandering, and damaged heart can, with care and proper direction, find its way to a sweet happily ever after.
