4.9/5 (24150 ratings)

Description:When English teacher Emma Shepardson’s own life begins to echo Jane Austen’s novel "Persuasion," she is too close to the situation to learn from Austen’s characters’ mistakes and must make her own. Recently widowed and guy shy, Emma knows all about literary conflict and theme, but when Adam Abramson enters her life, she can’t seem to transfer that knowledge to their relationship. Driven apart like Austen’s Anne Elliott and Captain Wentworth, Emma and Adam struggle unsuccessfully to overcome the forces that separate them. Adam, suffering from post traumatic relationship syndrome, can’t let himself trust Emma. Emma can’t forgive herself, her husband, Adam’s mother, or Adam himself, and hardens her heart against the pain she fears more than the love she feels. Their reunion eight years later challenges both of them to look beyond past hurt, to overcome the pain they’ve caused themselves and each other, and find out who really does love longest when all hope seems to be gone.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
