Summary
Michaela, whilst grieving and overwhelmed with the feelings blossoming in her chest for her cousin's widow, does the only thing she can think to do when asked so sweetly to stay, she flees.
But now, after two years of running, she has returned to London, determined to make amends with the woman she has managed to convince herself she cannot fall in love with, under any circumstances.
Yet her chosen path is not an easy one, for Francesca Stirling, now seething with rage, grief, and a furious current of feelings she neither understands nor can explain, is just as determined to discover the very reason for Michaela's flight in the first place, a reason Michaela is intent on keeping to herself.

Summary
She was attracted to Michaela. That much was clear. And Michaela was attracted to her too? She had to assume so.
So they could see each other again. It could be light and breezy. Francesca could manage that.
She didn’t want to date Michaela, anyway. Michaela was brash and loud and chaotic. They just weren’t compatible. At least as conversation partners. But in other ways…
Francesca blushed at the memory. Yeah, they were definitely compatible in other ways.

Summary
In the next TikTok, Michaela’s at brunch with friends.
Francesca paused then and rewatched for awhile. What were her friends like? They seemed like Michaela: outgoing, put-together, charismatic, beautiful…
Hm. Beautiful. Francesca paused the video on a frame of just Michaela and took the image in. She blinked once. Yes. Beautiful.
Well, John was handsome, wasn’t he? So that made sense. Same genes. Good genes.

Summary
"Bridgerton! Drills now!"
Francesca's eyes never left Michaela's. "I must go back," she turned to John “See you tomorrow?”
"Absolutely," he replied.
"I- I hope we meet again, Michaela," she turned and walked back to the court.
She made it three steps before glancing back.
Michaela was still watching her. Still smiling that slow, warm smile.
Francesca walked into a teammate. "Sorry, sorry, I wasn't-" She kept walking.
Beside her, John was silent for a long moment. Then: "So."
Michaela tore her gaze away. "So what?"
"Nothing." But he was grinning. "Absolutely nothing. Just don’t make my friend there forget how to function, be nice."
“When was I everything but nice to a pretty girl?”

Summary
“I do not know you.”
“Yet I should like to know you.”
Francesca finds that her eyes have already drifted back to her left, back towards Michaela.
“I—” She feels her cheeks paint pink, “Well you should—” She coughs. “Not.”
Michaela just smiles, nonplussed, “I fear your repellant disposition is having the opposite effect, Miss Bridgerton.”
Francesca cheeks redden even further as she rolls her eyes, looking away again, “I told you to—”
“Tell me then, Francesca..” Michaela purrs, turning towards Francesca and stepping closer. Francesca’s neck jerks right back to her at the sound of her voice. Her heels click once, twice. And she teases a small pout, a dangerous gesture indeed, “What mountains must I move to earn favor with you?”
Francesca’s eyes unconsciously fall to Michaela’s lips for a half-second.
And when she looks back up, Michaela's pout transforms into that same damned enigmatic smile.
Holding her gaze steady, seemingly unaffected, Francesca finally suggests,
“Perhaps you can start with Everest.”
