    Summary

    After relocating to New England, the Featheringtons are cast out of the village and left to fend for themselves through the brutal winter. Then Penelope’s sister Philippa goes missing and no one believes her when she tells them what she saw—a barefoot woman in rags who led her sister away into the wood, never to be seen again.

    Penelope bears the brunt of the family’s despair and turns to her dreams for an escape, where a kind, gentle man visits her and encourages her to seek a life full of pleasure beyond contentment.

    It’s an irresistible offer, even though it begins to feel like a seduction rather than mere comfort.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington heard Colin swear he would never court her—and decided to carry it in silence. Colin is certain she never heard him at all. At least, that's what he tells himself.

    OR

    Colin Bridgerton’s courting lessons grow more outlandish by the day. The fan. The walk. Archery, of all things. And now, God help her, the swing. Yet Penelope cannot bring herself to refuse him—even knowing no gentleman in all of London is searching for a wife who can swing like a lady. She has never been able to say no to him. And the trouble is, she never will.

    Swing lessons. Colin cannot decide which is madder—that he proposed such a thing, or that Penelope agreed to play along. There is nothing practical in the exercise, nothing academic, nothing that will bring her closer to the one thing she wants—to be chosen by some other man. If he is honest, that has never once been the point. He has only ever wanted to keep her close a little longer. The trouble is, Colin is rarely honest, least of all with himself.

    The air at Aubrey Hall turns sweet in August, thick with ripening fruit and something far less innocent.
    Penelope believed she was safe from such changes.

    August disagrees.
