Penelope holds herself to her practical beliefs and would prefer to not ever marry.
When invitations are sent out among the kingdom requesting every eligible maiden to attend the ball, Penelope is begrudging to go. However, she decides to give the prince she believes to be a pompous and spoiled brat a piece of her mind.
Then she meets Graham and she begins to question some of her beliefs and the desire to never marry might not be what she wanted after all.
