The story of Persuasion is predicated on the once engaged Anne
Elliot and Frederick Wentworth meeting after a separation of nearly
nine years. In this time both have changed a great deal. She has
learnt that love is not as easily had as she thought when she was
19, and he has got the money and success he hungered after
as a younger man. When
they meet again, there is still much pride and misunderstanding to
overcome before all is set to
right.
But what would happen if the second
meeting was postponed by just a few months?
In the original story, Frederick says to Anne that
time makes many changes, and in this piece I explore just
how many changes just a little time can make.
Thank
you for dropping by and I hope you enjoy reading the first chapter of, "If I Dream, I Have You …

I am in the process of editing the story and formatting it for various e-readers. I will announce on my blog, Jane Started It!, when it will be available.
