   Summary

   At the first Ball of the season Lord Fife bumps into Miss Penelope Featherington but rather than stutter and apologise she gives him the perfect set-down. Intrigued by this new version of the wallflower, Fife can't help but seek out her company. But what are his intentions and what will happen when Colin Bridgerton comes back from his travels?
