Find Wonder in All Things
Description
"There could have never been two hearts so open… Now they were as strangers" -Persuasion, Jane Austen
Mountain Laurel Elliot is like her name-she blooms best in the cool comfort of shade, hidden in the Kentucky foothills of Appalachia. Alone on her mountain, she lives a private existence with only her pottery-and her regrets-for company.
James Marshall had a secret dream and Laurel was part of it, but dreams sometimes lead to unexpected places. James's heart broke when Laurel cut him loose, but he moved on-and became successful beyond his wildest dreams. For one glorious summer, James and Laurel had each other, but life has kept them far apart.
Until now.
"a magnificent modernization of Jane Austen's Persuasion." -Austenesque Reviews
