A steamy, sapphic retelling of Jane Austen's Emma.
Despite them being of similar age and moving in the same circles, Emma Woodhouse can’t find it in herself to like the cold and reserved Jane Fairfax, whose accomplishments in art and music are a painful reminder of what Emma might have achieved if she applied herself instead of playing cupid for those around her.
When Emma is guilted into doing a favour for Jane, she is surprised by the warmth of Jane’s gratitude and comes to understand that what she thought was icy reserve was only painful shyness.
With Jane destined to be a governess unless she can marry well, Emma is determined to put her matchmaking skills to use. But as the search begins, Emma realises her heart isn’t in it. Instead of finding the perfect husband for Jane, she begins to harbour secret hopes of her own.
