"Come to me–come to me entirely now," said he. "Make my happiness–I will make yours."

Born into a poor family and raised by an oppressive aunt, young Jane Eyre becomes the governess at Thornfield Manor to escape the confines of her life. There her fiery independence clashes with the brooding and mysterious nature of her employer, Mr. Rochester. But what begins as outright loathing slowly evolves into a passionate romance. When a terrible secret from Rochester's past threatens to tear the two apart, Jane must make an impossible choice: Should she follow her heart or walk away and lose her love forever?

Unabashedly romantic and utterly enthralling, Jane Eyre endures as one of the greatest love stories of all time. This must-have edition of a timeless classic is beautifully presented for a modern teen audience.

About the Author

Charlotte BrontË was born in 1816 and grew up in a family that had a great passion for literature and talent for writing. She and her two sisters, Emily and Anne, began writing at young ages and pseudonymously published a collection of poetry in 1846. Immediately following, the sisters transitioned to writing novels, and in 1847 Charlotte published Jane Eyre under the pen name Currer Bell. It was quickly recognized as a work of genius and to this day remains one of English literature's most beloved classics.
