    Summary

    After overhearing Colin Bridgerton declare that he would “never dream of courting Penelope Featherington,” Penelope does the only thing she can: she lets him go.

    Colin leaves for the Continent with her silence following him across every border, only to discover that distance does not lessen regret—or longing. The more he writes, the more he realizes that every city, every wonder, and every mile means less without the one person he most wishes to share them with.

    But when he finally returns to London, love may prove easier to confess than the truth Penelope has kept hidden for years.

    Or: One careless sentence broke Penelope's heart. It took a continent for Colin to understand why.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is packing up her life and moving to Dublin — new country, new city, new people, a Creative Writing MA at Trinity, and a real shot at finishing her novel. Fresh start, clean slate, no complications. She had a spreadsheet. It had tabs. She had thought of everything.

    She had not thought of Colin. She had definitely not thought about living with him.

    Summary

    "Time isn't cruel, it's indifferent to those who hesitate too much."
    Colin Bridgerton always believed he would have time. Time to clarify words spoken carelessly, time to mend silences. He was still young, he had a purpose to pursue. But time and society don't wait for the indecisive, and he knew his time had run out when he saw Penelope walk down the aisle with another man and understood that love isn't lost all at once... it's lost with small acts of cowardice.
    But despite that, time is sometimes capricious and forgiving to the repentant. Colin is given a second chance to right his wrongs, to change his destiny, but secrets and mistakes become an obstacle, and he will learn that things aren't as easy as he thought.
    Will Colin be able to repair the damage he has caused and have the woman he loves by his side before she decides to move on?
