But when Colin returns to London from a trip abroad, he discovers nothing in his life is quite the same-especially Penelope Featherington! The girl who was always simply… there is suddenly the girl haunting his dreams. After half a lifetime of watching Colin Bridgerton from afar, she thinks she knows everything about him, until she stumbles across his deepest secret… and fears she doesn’t know him at all.Ĭolin Bridgerton is tired of being thought nothing but an empty-headed charmer, tired of the neverending sameness of his life, and, most of all, tired of everyone’s preoccupation with the notorious gossip columnist Lady Whistledown, who can’t seem to publish an edition without mentioning him in the first paragraph. Penelope Featherington has secretly adored her best friend’s brother for… well, it feels like forever. The shy, quiet, awkward, and plump Penelope fell and fell hard for the dashing, devil-may-care brother of her best friend Eloise - a love that was destined to remain unrequited (and undiminished) for the next twelve years.
