    Summary

    When Penelope Featherington made her debut into society, she harbored no great expectations. She had resigned herself to the notion that her beauty was unlikely to draw a admirers. Yet, she found solace in one constant: Colin Bridgerton, was always there to claim her hand for a dance.
    But with Colin’s attentions fixed on Marina Thompson, Penelope knew her heart was destined for heartbreak. How, then, had she found herself in the dimly lit garden with Colin’s fervent plea? He begged her—her—to ensnare him in marriage, not Marina.
    "Pen, I implore you—trap me in a marriage instead! I beg of you!"

    Summary

    His eyes landed on Penelope, dancing in the arms of Arthur Fernsby of all people, looking absolutely miserable. Fernsby hands were lower in her back than they had any right to be, and there was nothing proper in the way he held her close to his body. Colin only noticed that he had started walking towards Pen when Violet stopped him.

    “Dearest, what are you doing?” Her voice was sweet and full of concern, but her hand on his arm was firm. Colin looked at his mother as if she had lost her mind.

    “Miss Featherington is clearly uncomfortable, should I not help her?”

    “Oh Colin, they are to be wed in a week,” his world came crashing down. “I fear any help is too late by now.”

    -

    Penelope is being forced to marry someone she does not want, Colin decides that the only way to help is to marry her himself.

    Summary

    Colin felt his stomach drop.

    “Penelope,” he croaked out. “I was simply joking – I-I mean to say, it was nothing but gentlemen teasing each other-“

    “And yet you thought it appropriate to condemn me to an unmarriageable status.” She continued harshly, mouth twisting up into a sneer. “You thought it acceptable that a man in your position, a part of the most influential family amongst the ton, should declare a young woman so unworthy of marriage that the thought itself was simply amusing. That to ensure that no bachelor would dare to be seen pursuing me and therefore sentence me to a life of a spinster. That is what you thought it fair to do.”

    ******
    Somehow, Colin has seriously, completely, messed up.

    His best friend, his only real friend, is furious with him and he doesn't know how to fix this. How can you undo the kind of mistake he had made? How can you redeem yourself to a woman like Penelope Featherington? How can you tell her that you might actually love her instead?

    Colin had a feeling this was not going to be easy.
