    Summary

    “Do you have any idea what would happen if your father saw this?”

    She looked at him, into his blue eyes, “Then don’t let him.”

    He scoffed, harsh and bitter. Ran a hand through his grey hair, shaking his head like he couldn’t believe she was saying–what she’d done.

    “Jesus, Penelope.”

    The one where Penelope Featherington falls in love with her dad’s best friend, Colin Bridgerton.

    Summary

    “Bridgerton?” she whispered. The name hung in the air like a spell half-broken. The Bridgerton boy, the third son. The one who vanished years ago.
    But this wasn’t the charming man she remembered from the safe, sunlit world of Mayfair. That Colin had laughed easily. Had smiled. Had been human.
    This creature before her…wasn’t. Not entirely.

    Summary

    In a world where the marriage ritual leaves a permanent mark on you, the word that reflects your match’s first impression of you appears in your skin.

    —•—

    Penelope had known since she was eight years old who she would marry. She had heard stories about him, how brave and noble he was, and spent her whole life in love with the boy in the picture.

    Something that had never crossed Penelope’s mind, however, was the possibility that Colin Bridgerton would be disappointed upon meeting her.

    “Speak now, Penelope, with clarity and conviction. What is the word, bestowed upon you by the gentleman ordained as your match, that defines you in his eyes?”

    The celebrant’s voice suddenly felt like a distant hum, her vision blurred by the tears welling up in her eyes. On her wrist, visible to anyone close enough to read it, was written her word with golden letters.
     

    Shallow.
