Welcome to the Super Stocking Stuffer Giveaway Hop
If you enjoy books that retell classic stories
in a more modern way, you may enjoy Jeannette
Watts' book, A Women's Persuasion. This book is
an updated version of Jane Austen's
Persuasion In this version, the two main
characters are both women.
Here the pair met in college. Due to pressure
from her family and worry that a relationship
with Freddie would adversely affect Freddie's
military career, Anne broke it off with her.
None of this is a spoiler since it all takes
place before the beginning of the book. The book
takes place when they run into each other again
years later. Anne has never really gotten over
Freddie, but it doesn't seem as though Freddie
feels the same way. Thus, picking up where they
left off doesn't seem likely, but they still
keep running into each other.
The book is sweet and feels old-fashioned even
though it is set in the current day. There is
plenty of romance not just that between Anne and
Freddie although a lot of the romance takes
place off the page. It is short and sweet and
quick to read.

Persuasion. Enter to win a copy below:
