Caroline Ashley is a journalist on the rise at the Washington Post until the sudden fatality of her dad brings her back to Thorny Hollow to care for her mentally fragile mother. The one respite from the eternal rotation of bridge club conferences and garden celebrations is her longtime good friend, Brooks Elliott. A teacher of journalism, Brooks is the voice of sanity and reason in the land of pink lemonade and triple layer coconut cakes. However when she meets a remarkable, charismatic son on the cusp of a brand new industry, she ignores Brooks' misgivings and throws herself in to the project. Brooks struggles to reconcile his parents' very bitter relationship along with his father's destructive grief at the recent loss of his better half. Caroline is the one bright location in the emotional wreckage of his family life. She's a friend and he's properly pleased to keep her safely in that category. Matrimony isn't for men like Brooks and they both know it...until a good-looking newcomer wins her heart and soul. Brooks discovers Caroline is much more than a good friend, and always has been, but is it too overdue to gain her back? With a scheming playboy, a feisty grandmama, a crooked antiques supplier, some contra dance and a going back cast of Civil Conflict re-enactors, ‘Emma, Mr. Knightley, and Chili-Slaw Pups' brings you back to a modern South only Jane Austen may have imagined.
