Emma is warned by the family friend, Mr. Knightly, to give up matchmaking, but she ignores all warnings. When Emma discovers that Mr. Elton is more interested in her, she is forced to fend him off and find another suitor for Harriet. When Highbury welcomes two new guests, the mysterious Jane Fairfax and the charming Frank Churchill, things begin to get difficult! Emma finds herself falling in love with Frank Churchill, but decides Frank is better suited for Harriet only to discover that Harriet has fallen for Mr. Knightly!
