Summary
After the departure of Cousin Jack, the Featherington family is left with virtually no money, and even less reputation. Penelope is faced with the prospect of spending the rest of her days stuck in Reading with her mother and some relatives she's never met before in her life. Then she gets an offer from Eloise: Come and stay with the Bridgerton family and become a companion of sorts to Violet. Pen eagerly accepts.
When tongues start to wag about Penelope and Anthony Bridgerton having more than a business relationship--spurred on by a Lady Whistledown column--Anthony can think of only one solution: Marriage.
And so Penelope finds herself married to a man she's loved in secret, but who absolutely does not love her in return. He married her out of obligation and duty, nothing else--or so she thinks. Time will tell if this uneven match will end up on rather more even footing as they become more acquainted.
