One of Austen's beloved novels is Persuasion, featuring Miss Anne Elliot and her Captain Fredrick Wentworth. At the end of Persuasion, both characters find each other again after many years apart. Anne accepts Fredrick's proposal of marriage, and listeners are left happy with the knowledge that after a bit of trouble, Anne gets all she hopes for.
