"A powerful modern day reimagining of Charlotte Brontë's classic novel Jane Eyre. Jane learns that in the world of New York's elite, secrets are the greatest extravagance and she must decide if she should trust the man she loves or do whatever it takes to protect her best friend from the consequences of his deception" -- Provided by publisher.
"Growing up in an unhappy family in a small New England town, Jane dreamed of escaping to New York City to study art and live a life of independent adventure. Soon after arriving, she takes a job as a nanny for a mysterious, powerful businessman, Rochester, and his lovable but lonely daughter, Adele, in a lavish apartment filled with unsettling secrets. Jane soon finds herself drawn into a world of intrigue, danger, and romance that takes her far beyond her childhood dreams."-- Page [4] of cover.

Modern Retelling of a Classic submitted by timdufresne on August 31, 2018, 10:06am Beautiful, nuanced retelling of a classic novel.

Disappointing submitted by majean on June 19, 2023, 2:26pm I liked Jane and her roommate, but Mr. Rochester and that whole situation with his wife was a huge turn-off. They should have kept closer to the original story.
