    Summary

    After her secret identity is unmasked by her best friend and cruel mother, Penelope Featherington has no choice: she must leave London. Fast.
    Her very good friend and traveller Colin Bridgerton is set to depart for his second Grand Tour at dawn. He’s the perfect escape, but there’s a catch: he just publicly declared in her own garden that he would never dream of courting her. Will he be willing to help her run away, with the risk that entails for him? And if he does, will she survive being forced into the tight quarters of a carriage and the rolling decks of a ship with the man who just broke her heart?”

    Set after season 2, this is a story about forced proximity, high-seas adventure, hurt feelings, and slow (and then very fast) realisations. Did I mention there was only one bed?
