Witty, daring and with a secret knack for painting Frances Granville arrives at London with two convictions: one, that she is not interested in men, especially not in lords who parade impeccably around courting innocent young ladies at balls only to close their nights in brothels. Two, that if she does not secure a husband, her father will make a match with someone at least twice her age and half her wits. Franny navigates the courting season, her loving and quaint family and her attraction to a certain Bridgerton brother with a charming smile while she finds her own definition of what it means to be a woman in the Regency era.
