Definitely one for the favorites shelf."-Kelly Creagh, author of Nevermore Now, moving between her two realities and uncovering secrets in both, Emma must decide whether her destiny lies in the pages of Jane's story, or in the unwritten chapters of her own. As governess at Thornfield, Emma has a sense of belonging she's never known-and an attraction to the brooding Mr. Then fate takes things a leap further when a lightning storm catapults Emma right into Jane's body and her nineteenth-century world. Reading of Jane's isolation sparks a deep sense of kinship. But escape soon arrives in an old leather-bound copy of Jane Eyre.
And her only romantic prospect-apart from a crush on her English teacher-is Gray Newman, a long-time friend who just adds to Emma's confusion.

In this stunning, imaginative novel, Eve Marie Mont transports her modern-day heroine into the life of Jane Eyre to create a mesmerizing story of love, longing, and finding your place in the world.Įmma Townsend has always believed in stories-the ones she reads voraciously, and the ones she creates.
