Wentworth is a successful member of the Royal Navy who found great fortune at sea during the Napoleonic Wars. He was once briefly engaged to Anne but she was persuaded not to continue her relationship with him. Eight years later, he has returned to Somersetshire intent on finding himself a bride. He professes to want only someone strong of character and not easily influenced by others--forcing Anne to pull herself out of the picture.
