Tea with Emma - The Teacup Novellas Book OneFresh from a Jane Austen tour in England, Maddie Cooper returns home to Texas, determined to bring a touch of "Austen to Austin." She dreams of opening an authentic English tea room and, like Austen's Emma, put into practice her self-proclaimed gift as a matchmaker. But an airport mishap with a cranky Englishman gets her off on the wrong foot (quite literally), especially when he moves into the university guest house across the street. Can Maddie find a love for her unapproachable new neighbor, or has she finally met her match?
This Contemporary give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Tea With Emma
Author Diane Moody has released her first novella!
I'll be upfront with you - Diane is a friend, but there's more to our story than that - I'm also a fan of her writing. I love to do favors for friends. . .however this review is not that. This review is about a fresh voice in the fiction world and about a story so engaging I put the work I love to do on hold so I could finish it.
Maddie Cooper is a woman with a big dream inspired by a trip to England and she's not about to let anyone stop her from making that dream come true. Not even a grumpy new neighbor with a great accent - no matter how handsome he might be.
If you're looking for a fast and fun read, I highly recommend Tea With Emma. On every page Diane combines England, Texas, tea, romance, and a touch of faith with an elegant ease.
2. Austen in Austin
I absolutely love the premise of the Teacup Novellas series - a collection of teacups, each with its own story. In Tea With Emma, the author weaves a delightfully sweet and sunny Austen-esque tale in Austin, Texas that combines a British professor of English literature, a tea-room opening and a lovingly meddlesome matchmaker-wannabe who nearly misses the perfect match under her very nose. A charming, fun read -- I definitely recommend it!

So delightful! Great writing and a joy to read for Jane Austen fans!
Every once in a while you come across someone who writes so well, you want to put the book, or kindle down, and start clapping. I'm tired of 400 page books that could be condensed into a novella. What Diane Moody did in this short novel is tell a delightful story that is so creative and heartwarming, it could be a movie. If you love Jane Austen, you'll love this book. I can't wait to read the other teacup novella she's written. Bravo to Diane Moody...I'm applauding!
