Emma

Before the Bridgertons, there was Emma Woodhouse—handsome, clever, rich, and dangerously bored. In the quiet, gossipy village of Highbury, twenty-one-year-old Emma has the world at her fingertips. Having just orchestrated a successful marriage for her beloved governess, the self-proclaimed mastermind decides she has a natural gift for matchmaking. Her new project? The sweet, illegitimate, and terribly naive Harriet Smith. But when Emma takes Harriet under her wing, convincing her to reject a respectable farmer in favor of the dashing village vicar, her innocent meddling sets off a chain reaction of devastating romantic misunderstandings, shattered egos, and scandalous secrets. As her perfectly laid plans violently unravel, Emma finds herself frequently crossing swords with the fiercely intelligent Mr. Knightley, the only man in Highbury bold enough to tell her when she is wrong. But as she tries to arrange everyone else's happily-ever-after, Emma discovers she might be entirely blind to the desires of her own heart.
