    Summary

    In the aftermath of her father’s death, Penelope Featherington learns how little remains when a man’s authority vanishes and a woman’s does not exist. Sent from London to the courts of Vienna and Paris, she must navigate a marriage market shaped by war, inheritance, and expectation—while guarding a secret voice that has long been her only power.

    Colin Bridgerton is traveling without purpose when he finds her again, changed and changing, in a world far from home. What begins as familiarity becomes choice, and what society demands is quietly weighed against what the heart will bear.

    A Regency-set Polin novel about agency, partnership, and the cost of being seen.
