Publisher's summary

Ever since Emma read Pride and Prejudice, she's been in love with Mr. Darcy and has regarded Jane Austen as the expert on all things romantic. So, naturally, when Emma falls for Blake Hampton and he invites her home to meet his parents, she is positive an engagement is in her future. After all, Blake is a single man in possession of a good fortune, and thus must be in want of a wife.

But when it turns out that what Blake actually wants is more of a hook-up than a honeymoon, Emma is hurt, betrayed, and furious. She throws herself deeper into her work as CMO of Kinetics, the fastest growing gym franchise in the nation. She loves her work, and she's good at it, which is why she bristles when her boss brings in a consultant to help her spearhead the new facilities on the East Coast. Her frustration turns to shock when that consultant turns out to be Blake's younger brother, Lucas.

Emma is determined not to fall for Lucas, but as she gets to know him, she realizes that Lucas is nothing like his brother. He is kind and attentive and spends his time and money caring for the less fortunate.

What she can't understand is why Lucas continues to try to push her back into Blake's arms when he so clearly has fallen as hard for her as she has fallen for him. Realizing that her love life is as complicated as anything Jane Austen could have dreamed up, Emma must find a way to let Blake know that it's time for him to let her go and to let Lucas know it's time for him to love her back.

Delightful story

My only complaint is the way the narrator preformed male voices. It was so terrible that I nearly gave up before getting invested in the story.

cheesey but enjoyable.

This is light hearted listen. No deep meanings just fluff that's good for the soul on occasion.

Fun Quotes from my favorite Jane Austin Books!

I love how stubborn both characters were. it made it seem like real life rather than just an unrealistic book. I could see both sides of the story. The narrator did a fantastic job as well. Bravo.

Enjoyed it!

Not overly predictable and the people seemed real - not overly perfect or overly flawed. The scenario seemed believable!

You don't have to be a huge Jane Austen fan, but it helps. This Hallmark Channel style romantic story was a pleasure.

Perfect romcom

If you’re debating just do it already. No crazy love scenes, a perfect story.

Never liked Emma

If you like Jane Austen’s Emma you’ll like this better than me. Main character reminds me of every thing I hate about Emma. Good otherwise though.
