Description: "Mark Knightley &#x2013; handsome, clever, rich &#x2013; is used to women falling at his feet. Except Emma Woodhouse, who&#x2019;s like part of the family &#x2013; and the furniture. When their relationship changes dramatically, is it an ending or a new beginning? Emma&#x2019;s grown into a stunningly attractive young woman, full of ideas for modernising her family business. Then Mark gets involved and the sparks begin to fly. It&#x2019;s just like the old days, except that now he&#x2019;s seeing her through totally new eyes. While Mark struggles to keep his feelings in check, Emma remains immune to the Knightley charm. She&#x2019;s never forgotten that embarrassing moment when he discovered her teenage crush on him. He&#x2019;s still pouring scorn on all her projects, especially her beautifully orchestrated campaign to find Mr Right for her ditzy PA. And finally, when the mysterious Flynn Churchill &#x2013; the man of her dreams &#x2013; turns up, how could she have eyes for anyone else? With its clueless heroine and entertaining plot, this modern retelling of Jane Austen&#x2019;s Emma stays true to the original, while giving fresh insights into the mind of its thoroughly updated and irresistible hero."--Publisher description.
