But as Emma comes in close contact with the darker side of Hollywood, she starts to question the glamorous world she's always known and realises her role in it needs to change - if she can find the courage to go off script. Not only is Liam her former best friend's older brother, but he's gorgeous, smart, and has no problem pointing out the (totally exaggerated) flaws in Emma's plans. Emma's plans start to unravel, however, when professional soccer player Liam Price re-enters her life. And because Emma knows best, she's sure that steering Brittany onto the right path is all she needs to do to make her a star - even if Brittany doesn't know it yet.
When Emma's search for an assistant leads her to the wide-eyed Brittany Smith, Emma sees the big screen in the girl's future. The summer after her first year of college, teen starlet Emma Crawford returns home to Manhattan to prepare for the role of a lifetime - and play career matchmaker to her friends.
Emma gets a Hollywood-tinged, feminist update in this funny and fierce retelling of Austen's classic about a well-intentioned but tragically misguided matchmaker. Teen starlet Emma Crawford loves playing matchmaker almost as much as she loves the spotlight, but when Emma comes in close contact with the darker side of Hollywood, she starts to question the glamorous world she's always known and realises her role in it needs to change - if she can find the courage to go off script.

(For even more Arthur-reimagined greatness, get thee to Once & Future by Amy Rose Capetta and Cori McCarthy and The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White, both of which released in 2019 and have sequels out this year.) As a magical war approaches while Bree searches for the truth, she'll have to decide whether the Legendborn are friend or foe. Oh, and Merlin has ties to her mother, and helps her realize there's more to her mom's death than she knew. Oh, and they happen to be descendants of King Arthur and his knights, and include a mage named Merlin who discovers Bree has powers of her own. And thus she discovers the Legendborn, a secret society of students whose job it is to hunt those creatures. When Bree moves into a college residence after the death of her mother, the last thing she expects to witness is a magical attack by a flying demon. What it's about: There's no legend currently having its YA retelling moment quite like King Arthur, and this version promises to be epic.
