Summary
In a world where the marriage ritual leaves a permanent mark on you, the word that reflects your match’s first impression of you appears in your skin.
—•—
Penelope had known since she was eight years old who she would marry. She had heard stories about him, how brave and noble he was, and spent her whole life in love with the boy in the picture.
Something that had never crossed Penelope’s mind, however, was the possibility that Colin Bridgerton would be disappointed upon meeting her.
“Speak now, Penelope, with clarity and conviction. What is the word, bestowed upon you by the gentleman ordained as your match, that defines you in his eyes?”
The celebrant’s voice suddenly felt like a distant hum, her vision blurred by the tears welling up in her eyes. On her wrist, visible to anyone close enough to read it, was written her word with golden letters.
Shallow.

Summary
Penelope Featherington has been quietly in love with Colin Bridgerton for nine years. She's written it all down—every small moment, every unreturned feeling—in a document meant for her eyes only. Colin, meanwhile, has spent those same years being charming and oblivious.
Then Colin calls off his wedding and accidentally discovers what Penelope's been hiding. Suddenly, he can't stop thinking about the woman he never noticed. He wants to know her—really know her. And Penelope has no idea why he's finally paying attention.
As friendship turns into something more, Colin faces an impossible problem: he's falling for her, but she doesn't know how he learned to see her. The truth might destroy everything. But the lies might be worse.

Summary
“Ah, are you mad? I would never dream of courting Penelope Featherington, not in your wildest fantasies, Fife.”
A beat of silence passed, filled only by the sounds of distant conversation, firecrackers sizzling in the sky and the gentle beat of crickets in the night. For a moment it seemed the men had nothing to say, and then–
“Truly?”
“I was under the impression you shared an understanding.”
“So she is available?”All three gentlemen responded at once, in that order. Before Colin could question their meaning, they were already looking beyond him and making their way out.
----------------------------------------------------
In the summer of 1814, one Bridgerton's declaration clears the path for suitors galore to vie for a young Miss Featherington's hand, much to his dismay.

“Oh.”
Colin whipped around, eyes wide.
“Pen!”
