Synopsis

Anne Elliot is a brilliant and single-minded woman destined to live the life of an unmarried spinster in the judgmental world of the nineteenth century English middle class. That is until she meets Frederick Wentworth. In love across bounds of class and convention the two are forced apart by the position of Anne’s close confidante Lady Russell. Years later, Anne must face the return of Wentworth, now monied and successful from exploits in the Napoleonic wars. Dancing around the expectations and machinations of a high society that keep them apart Anne must choose between a fresh start and a second chance.
