Ahora, Emily está en edad de asistir a la escuela secundaria de Shrewsbury, donde estudian todos sus amigos. Sin embargo, la severa tia Elizabeth, siempre chapada a la antigua, le ha asegurado que no podra asistir si no promete abandonar esa absurda aficion suya por la escritura. Pese a todo, Emily publica sus primeros poemas y comienza a escribir en el periodico local. Su camino hacia el exito parece asegurado, pero quizas para continuar en el deba aprovechar una oportunidad magnifica que le brinda el destino pero que le obligara a cambiar su vida para siempre.

Cree que su amor va a durar eternamente y que juntos van a ser capaces de todo lo que se propongan. Sin embargo, cuando Teddy decide marcharse a Montreal sin ella, para hacer realidad el sueño de ser artista, el mundo de Emily se hace añicos. Sin Teddy, Emily debe volver a plantearse sus ilusiones y sus deseos. Refugiada en sus libros y escritos, tendrá que aprender cuál es la verdadera vida de una escritora.
