Summary:

It's the untold romance that inspired the novels of one of the world's most celebrated authors, Jane Austen. When the dashing Tom Lefroy, a reckless and penniless lawyer-to-be, enters Jane's life, he offends the emerging writer's sense and sensibility. Soon their clashing egos set off sparks that ignite a passionate romance and fuel Jane's dream of doing the unthinkable: marrying for love.
