Penelope Featherington attends a birthday lunch at the Bridgerton house for her best friend, Eloise, but she must push through some debilitating cramps. A drunken night months ago forces her to face her feelings for Eloise's older brother, Colin. The gravity of a secret she is hiding from both of them weighs on her conscience. Will she ever be able to make it through this day?

We begin two days after the Featherington Ball, when Colin finally realizes his feelings towards Penelope. But he's also realized that he is not worthy of her love.

It's time to rise from the ashes and become the person she's always wanted to be, perhaps even earn the forgiveness of those she loves in the process. But are her mistakes too great to overcome? Are there any words that can erase what these two have done?

Colin continues his tour with a trip to Italy. However, when his letters to his dear friend, Penelope, go unanswered, he returns home early to see her. Penelope makes it clear that she does not wish to see him, leaving him quite distraught. In his room, Colin finds a love letter addressed to him, the traveling Bridgerton. He now has two goals this season; to get back into Penelope's good graces, and to find who wrote the letter.
