    Summary

    Flaunted at the marriage mart like a broodmare by her mother, Penelope is already tired of the balls and soirees of the ton, and it's just her first season. But something special happens when she attends Lady Danbury's masquerade ball.

    (Written for reverse trope event)

    What if Colin was a footman and just wanted to enjoy one night of revelry on his birthday? Will he get a glimpse of the life he lost when his father's wife denied him a chance to live in the high society as its member rather than merely a servant?

    (PS: there are no Bridgerton siblings in this story. Just Violet and Colin.)

    Dearest readers,
