    Summary

    When A-list actor and seemingly reformed idiot Colin Bridgerton’s high-profile engagement to singer-songwriter Marina Thompson oh-so publicly implodes, he’s convinced it’s the worst thing that has ever happened to him. That is, of course, until Marina releases a scathing and totally unsubtle chart-topping single about the supposed reason for their break-up: her ex-fiancé’s apparent enduring obsession with another woman named ‘Anne’, whose description bears a suspicious and uncanny resemblance to someone in Colin’s past.

    Now, it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened to him and his career as Hollywood’s sweetheart. Acting fast, his publicist decides that the only route to redemption is to spin the scandal into a sweeping true-to-life love story his adoring fans won’t be able to resist rooting for. But, well, for that, they’ll need ‘Anne’, won't they?

    -- Or, Colin Bridgerton gets the shock of his life when he's duly notified of his undying love for his former best friend via massive, international record-breaking pop hit. It is absolutely as chaotic as it sounds.

    Summary

    Simon Basset had simply intended to escape marriage. Not to ruin Daphne Bridgerton or drag Penelope Featherington into scandal before the Queen herself.

    It had been meant to be a lie. A simple way out.
    Instead, he had wrought havoc, humiliation and shattered reputations.

    Now Penelope stands at the center of London’s latest gossip, Simon bears the fury of polite society, and Daphne watches her season collapse around her.

    But Penelope Featherington is no one’s pawn.
    The ton demands entertainment. The Queen demands a wedding.
    And Penelope? Penelope has become a storm unleashed—a reckoning Simon is not ready to face.
