    Summary

    Francesca Bridgerton never forgot Michaela Stirling. She just got very good at not thinking about her.
    Ten years.

    A career she built from the ground up. A life that worked exactly the way she’d designed it: controlled and precise. She was good at this. She was, by most measures, fine.

    Then, the Altessence Heritage Institute briefing documents arrived. And there, third name on the list, was the one person she had spent a decade not thinking about.
    Michaela Stirling. Lead Architect. The most ambitious architectural project London has seen in years and absolutely no way out.

    Francesca had eleven days to prepare.

    It wasn’t enough.
