    Summary

    Having lost the two people she cared about the most in one night, Penelope had to make a choice: Find a husband by the end of the season or face being shipped off to Ireland and live the rest of her life under her mother's thumb.

    Determined to move on from Colin for good, she put her wallflower days behind her and started actively participating in the marriage mart. However, despite her efforts, she could not run from him forever.

    After successfully avoiding him for the first three balls of the season, her luck had run out and she found herself trapped in a room with him, in Cressida's home, no less.

    Will their friendship recover from the hurt? From the pain? Or perhaps, will their relationship take another turn altogether?
