   Summary

   Following the disastrous end of the last season, Penelope returns to the ton determined to start anew. She has rebuilt her friendship with Eloise, taken Colin off the pedestal, and commissioned an entirely new wardrobe - all with one plan in mind. Find a husband.

   At the behest of his mother, Colin returns just in time for the London season, but he would rather be anywhere else. Dismissed by Penelope with no explanation over the last several months, Colin is sure his letters have ruined the best thing in his life.

   Unopened letters and unsaid words have chipped away at the familiarity in Colin and Penelope's friendship, but are they really ready to let each other go?
