    Summary

    kismet kɪzmɪt,ˈkɪzmɛt/

    destiny; fate.

    Before the name Mademoiselle de Plume, there was Penelope Featherington — a girl from Bayonne with a dream stitched in velvet.
    She was born to perform, raised to survive, and destined to shine brighter than the taverns that first applauded her name.
    Then came Colin Bridgerton, a painter from Lyon whose art was as restless as his heart. The first time he saw her by the stage door, he didn’t just find inspiration — he found his muse.
    Through the haze of Parisian nights, beneath the chandeliers of the Moulin Rouge, their worlds collided in color and devotion: the artist and the showgirl, the dreamer and the dream.
    Because when the curtain falls and the world forgets your name, love remains the only masterpiece worth keeping.
    And love, like sequins, is forever.

    Or

    The one where Penelope is the ultimate showgirl and Colin is so down bad for her, he becomes obsessed with the color red.
