   Summary

   He hadn't intended for it to happen. He had been warned often by Anthony not to be swept under in the current of desire. For overstepping a social line could result in a young lady's ruin. But it was Penelope. Dear sweet Penelope. She was his friend. It was not the same with her. Freshly out in society, genial, gentle, quick -witted Penelope. In his mind he did not see her as a lady, a friend, yes, and a dear companion.
