The Power of Persuasion by Shelagh Watkins

The Power of Persuasion by Shelagh Watkins

Beth Durban is persuaded to write a letter to the editor's page of a national Sunday newspaper in response to a film critic�s prejudice against adaptations of Jane Austen�s novels. When she receives an unexpected visit from the newspaper's critic, F. William D'Arcy, she is bemused but, after several sightings of the inquisitive journalist, she�s neither pleased nor amused. Beth is so distracted by the unwelcome interest from such an arrogant man she fails to see that a close work colleague is falling in love with her. As a scientific researcher in a Scottish University, she has led a varied life travelling the world, spending time in New Zealand, Canada, Australia, America, Singapore and Israel. With such a full life, she has had little time to form any serious, romantic attachments that might lead to a permanent relationship. When she decides to take driving lessons, Beth opens up new opportunities for herself and realises that perhaps she isn�t too old to find love after all.
