A delightful and whimsical retelling of Jane Austen's beloved classic, Catherine Morland is a young woman who adores nothing more than immersing herself in the pages of a romantic novel. However, as one of ten children, she finds herself with limited time for both reading and romance. At the age of seventeen, her affluent neighbors invite her to spend the winter season in Bath, where she will have the opportunity to experience the grandeur of balls, the enchantment of the theatre, and other social delights for the very first time.
During her stay in Bath, Catherine meets the captivating Isabella and dances with the handsome Henry, both of whom seem to be fulfilling her dreams of love and happiness. However, as she navigates the complexities of real life, Catherine realizes that her path to happiness is not as straightforward as she had imagined. She must overcome numerous obstacles and challenges, including societal expectations, family dynamics, and her own self-doubt, to find her true love and achieve her happily ever after.
