   Summary

   Dearest Gentle Reader,

   It is a notion well known and well accepted that love overwhelms the senses. In Francesca Bridgerton’s case, Michaela Stirling overwhelms every single one. By sight, by sound, by smell, by touch, by taste. With every subsequent sense, Francesca falls a little bit more in love, even if she doesn’t quite know it yet.
