“I may have lost my heart, but not my self-control.”
Emma Woodhouse is certain that she's a good matchmaker. She tries to put her friend, Harriet, and Mr. Elton together in one basket, but her plan falters due to a grave misunderstanding--(view spoiler)
She, in the meantime, had persuaded Harriet into rejecting her love interest, Robert. Harriet, refusing to go back to Robert, ends up falling in love w/ Emma's (new) love interest, Mr. Knightley.
(view spoiler) she must find a way out for both her and her friend's HEA. But how exactly?
P.S. Emma is so likeable, cunning, and drop-dead gorgeous! She was totally convinced that she wasn't going to marry, but her plan in the end didn't work out :/
Plus, Emma's plan during the climax was questionable--like, wth did you just do to your frnd, Emma? :V
