Do you ever wonder about the lives that shaped Jane Austen's characters before their stories began?
England, summer, 1787. Long before the events of Jane Austen's The Watsons, a simple offer redefined Emma Watson's entire life.
Seventeen years into Mrs Watsons second marriage, Mr and Mrs Edward Turner-Mr Watson's youngest half-sister and her husband-visited the Watson family with a proposal. Married for over a decade themselves without children of their own, the Turners decided to take in one of the Watson children to raise as their heir. With children in abundance and very little money to benefit them, Mr and Mrs Watson were eventually convinced to give up one of theirs to the cause. Reluctant though they were to part with any of their "little blessings", the Watsons ultimately agreed, recognizing the advantages the arrangement would provide for the chosen child.
Therefore, at just five years old, Emma Watson was taken away from the only home she had ever known, and her parents were left to bear the grief of her loss-a grief born not of death, but of their own inability to provide.
This is a story of family love and difficult choices. It is a pivotal chapter in the Watsons' history that shapes who they become, revealing both their love for their children and the sacrifices parents sometimes have to make for them.
