At the age of 19, Anne Elliot fell deeply in love with handsome young naval officer Frederick Wentworth. However, with neither fortune nor rank to recommend him, Anne’s family was against the match and persuaded her to break off the engagement.
Now 27, Anne has lived to regret her decision. She has never stopped loving Wentworth, and when he returns from sea having made his fortune and reputation, she can only watch as every eligible young woman in the district falls at his feet. Has he forgotten the girl he left behind? Can he forgive her for listening to her family instead of her heart?
