Publisher's Synopsis
The last person Eglinton Echoes member Ashleigh Lynch expected to see across the table from her was her ex, Marcus Fredericks. Eight years ago when they were in love, she was a law student and he was a construction worker, not nearly good enough for her elitist family. But times have changed. Now she's a lawyer, and he owns the development company threatening the playing fields she's been engaged to protect.
Her family managed to crush her dreams and her confidence back then, and seeing Marcus again has rocked her to the core. But as talks over the playing fields continue, they are forced to confront each other again and again, and even the hardest hearts aren't always impervious to old, tender feelings.
But rekindling their romance won't be easy. They are on different sides of a dispute, and Ashleigh has caught the eye of a charming guy from the city's planning department. When the development project is threatened and Ashleigh discovers who her real enemy is, her very world begins to crumble around her, and not even her precious music is safe. Can she find the inner strength to deal, at last, with an old threat and reclaim the happiness that was ripped away from her eight years ago?
This musical reimagining of Jane Austen's beloved Persuasion will have you cheering the characters on, pulling you into their world and into their hearts.
