| Summary |
"In this debut romantic comedy, a modern retelling of Jane Austen's Emma, a beautiful, clever, and rich Upper East Sider with a passion for matchmaking quickly discovers that the best match of all might just be the one she never saw coming"-- Provided by publisher. |
|
Emma Woodhouse has all her life in a tight-knit Upper East Side neighborhood with very little to distress or vex her. When her matchmaking hobby results in her sister's marriage-- and all her friends traveling abroad-- she starts her final year of grad school grappling with an entirely new emotion: boredom. In Nadine, a wide-eyed Ohio transplant Emma not only sees a potential new friend but a new project. If only her overbearing neighbor George Knightley would get out of her way. He's only too happy to lecture her on the finer points of adulthood. As Emma's best laid plans collide with reality, these two friends discover that even the most familiar stories still have some surprises. -- adapted from back cover |
