Summary
Penelope Featherington is a successful English teacher, Deputy Headteacher and single mum to an energetic 5 year old, Elliott. They venture to London for a few days of exploring and new experiences during the summer holidays.
Penelope’s plans include a trip to museums, a boat ride, culture and new foods. Elliott’s plans include seeing as many dinosaurs as possible and eating lots of ice cream.
What Penelope doesn’t expect however, is for her carefully managed and curated world to collide with the chaotic Bridgerton family due to chance meeting between Elliott and some of the next generation of Bridgertons.
Penelope has spent years building a coat of armour to protect herself, and by extension Elliott, from everything negative that the world could throw their way. She is determined to give Elliott a totally different upbringing from her own. Her suit of armour also serves to cover the mental and physical scars, and closely guarded secrets, that she carries thanks to her past.
Surely her armour can stay intact for a few days in London… surely?

Summary
Penelope’s world revolves around her daughter, Jane, a bright and curious child on the autism spectrum whose life thrives on stability and routine. After years of heartbreak, Penelope has built a calm, steady rhythm for them both. One that doesn’t have room for the man who once shattered her trust.
Colin Bridgerton comes home sober, but sobriety doesn’t erase the wreckage he left behind. He’s haunted by the years he lost and by Penelope, the woman he loved through them all.
