Eight years earlier, Anne Elliot, the daughter of a financially troubled aristocratic family, was persuaded to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a young seaman who, though promising, had poor family connections. When her father rents out the family estate to Admiral Croft, Anne is thrown back into company with Frederick- because his sister is Mrs. Croft. Frederick is now a rich and successful Captain and a highly eligible bachelor. Whom will he marry? One of Anne's sister's husband's sisters? Or will he and Anne rekindle the old flame?
