Never Inconstant: a Sequel to Jane Austen's Persuasion by Lyndsay Constable. ★★★★★

Anne Elliott had been persuaded by Lady Russell, to give up her engagement to Frederick Wentworth for reasons that seemed logical at the time.

For eight years she kept him in her heart. Frederick kept her in his heart, as a lost and anguished memory.
Eventually they met again and after several obstacles, married.

Now, years into her very happy marriage she finds a bundle of letters addressed to her, in Frederick’s sea-trunk.
The letters contain an outpouring of grief, yearning, loneliness and heartbreak. Written, but never sent during their eight-year separation.

The result is a gentle story of love, angst and steadfast devotion.

I heartily recommend that you read this book!
