Donwell Abbey

George Knightley, Esquire
Book One: Charity Envieth Not
by
Barbara Cornthwaite

George Knightley is the owner of a considerable estate, a landlord, a magistrate, and a bachelor—a state that his brother John is perpetually prodding him to change. Thankfully, there is no one remotely suitable in his entire circle of acquaintance…or so he thinks. An unwanted interloper, a few romantic mishaps amongst his friends, and the dawning realization that Emma Woodhouse is no longer a child might just change everything. 

In the tradition of fellow Crownhill Writers Pamel Aidan (Fitzwilliam Darcy, Gentleman) and Susan Kaye (Fredrick Wentworth, Captain), Barbara Cornthwaite has written a retelling of Jane Austen's Emma from the hero's point of view.
