When the Woodfields' marriage shatters, Lena and Amelia, along with their mother and younger sister, are forced to leave behind what they know to start fresh in Colorado.

Lena, practical and guarded, holds things together for the family as their mother grieves. To her, love is responsibility. But to passionate Amelia, who treats life as a stage, love is all romance and vulnerability. As they navigate college, new relationships, and the weight of their parents' divorce, both sisters are drawn into relationships that test everything they thought they wanted.

Friendships form, secrets surface, and quiet hope causes Lena to question whether protecting her heart and overfunctioning for her family is worth the cost of never truly living. Amelia, on the other hand, must navigate a burning romance that almost sweeps her away.

A modern retelling of Sense and Sensibility, Lessons in Longing is a story about yearning, personal growth, and finding balance between emotional restraint and intense feeling.
