London, 1815. The Ton expects the return of Matthew Hughes, the 11th Earl of Marwick, to be the event of the season. After five years traversing the Mediterranean and North Africa, Matthew returns to a society he finds stifling, artificial, and utterly colorless. He has no interest in the "Diamonds" of the marriage mart-until he sees a flash of yellow in the corner of a ballroom.
Penelope Featherington has spent years perfecting the art of being invisible. Resigned to her status as the "Wallflower" and weary of her unrequited pining for Colin Bridgerton, she is prepared to start looking for a husband to escape her overbearing mother's clutches. She expected a dull, yet kind marriage to a man that wouldn't look at her for more than two seconds.
What she does not expect is a man like Matthew Hughes.
