Story
I’m not boyfriend material. If a trail of broken hearts and a piss-poor record of failed relationships have taught me anything, it’s this. My buddies are happy to give me shit about my latest breakup from here to next Sunday. Thanks, but I’d rather have a root canal. And a vasectomy. At the same time. Relief comes in an unlikely package - the gorgeous and feisty Maren. She just so happens to be my best friend’s sister, so that’s not awkward at all.

Will Darcy has all the money and time he could ask for, and yet life never seems to meet his expectations. When his best friend, Charlie, starts dating Jane Bennet, Will becomes their unhappy third-wheel. The solution? Bring along Jane's sister, Elsie, a girl who challenges him.

Publisher's Summary
She knows a match when she sees one, but she's clueless about her own heart.
Emma Woodhouse is happily single, though that's never stopped her from making matches for others. Her best friend, George Knightley, thinks it's a sure way to trouble, but what's wrong with giving romance a little nudge?
George has been fighting his feelings for Emma for years, but with families so closely intertwined, rocking the friendship boat would complicate more than just their relationship. He won't do that to her, or ask why she keeps cuddling up next to him on the couch to watch their favorite show at night.
When a matchmaking scheme gone wrong drives a wedge between them, the last thing they want is to face each other. But when Emma's sister goes into labor and they're the babysitters for the weekend, they'll have to set aside their pride and undeniable chemistry to tackle diaper duty together.
Don't miss this modern take on Jane Austen's Emma with all the characters you know and love.

clever
I thought this was well done! Rachel John does a great job of taking the flavor and the best parts of Jane Austen's Emma and puts mondern spin on it. I don't typically love modernized versions of Jane Austen's work, but just like Rachel John's Pride and Prejudice (Engaging Mr. Darcy), this one was amazing. I'll definitely be reading it again...and again.

This story proved to be a pleasant surprise as all the characters in this modern version appear in the original. The narrator did a good job of bringing all the characters to life.
