Book description
'On the sixth of April, in the year 1812 - precisely two days before
her sixteenth birthday - Penelope Featherington fell in love. But Colin
Bridgerton certainly didn't fall in love with her in 1812 (and not in
1813, 1814, 1815, or - oh blast, not in all the years 1816-1822, either,
and certainly not in 1823, when he was out of the country the whole
time, anyway..' Penelope Featherington has secretly adored her best
friend's brother forwell, it feels like forever. After half a lifetime
of watching Colin Bridgerton from afar, she thinks she knows everything
about him, until she stumbles across his deepest secretand fears she
doesn't know him at all. Colin Bridgerton is tired of being thought of
as nothing but an empty-headed charmer, 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. But when Colin returns to London from a trip abroard he
discovers nothing in his life is quite the same - especially Penelope
Featherington! The girl haunting his dreams. But when he discovers that
Penelope has secrets of her own, this elusive bachelor must decideis she
his biggest threat - or his promise of a happy ending? Visit Julia
