Women's Fiction Contemporary
Critically acclaimed and award-winning—but hardly
bestselling—author Georgina Jackson can’t get past the first
chapter of her second book. When she receives an urgent
email from her agent, Georgina is certain it’s bad news.
Shockingly, she’s offered a commission to complete a newly
discovered manuscript by a major nineteenth-century author.
Skeptical at first about her ability to complete the
manuscript, Georgina is horrified to know that the author in
question is Jane Austen. Torn between pushing through or
fleeing home to America, Georgina relies on the support of
her banker-turned-science student roommate, Henry, and his
quirky teenage sister, Maud—a serious Janeite. With a sudden
financial crisis looming, the only way Georgina can get by
is to sign the hugely lucrative contract and finish the book.
