    Summary

    Portia choked on her tea then recast her gaze on Penelope, offering a kinder look at the girl’s naivety. “There are a number of acts one might engage in within the bounds of marriage. Your husband will teach you what you need to know. But, you see, the marital act that begets children is more…specific.”
    “Shall I take notes, Mama?”
    “No. Listen, carefully.”
    “Very well then.” Penelope was very good indeed at listening carefully.

    -

    Portia gives Penelope "the talk" a little too late. It's not an isolated incident. In fact, late becomes a recurring theme.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton live entire worlds apart after Penelope's devastating secret ended their engagement. When Penelope gave birth to the twins, she and Colin parted with a painful arrangement: one child each, raised separately, with no future shared between them.

    In London, Colin raises Agatha: a polite, accomplished, and well-mannered girl who becomes the darling of Mayfair. In Boston, Penelope raises Thomasin: bold, quick-witted, and unbeholden to the rules of English society. They never expected their daughters to meet, but when both girls are sent to Summerfield House, an elite Parisian summer program, Thomasin and Agatha form a rivalry, then a friendship. The truth of their shared past surfaces, and they devise a plan to trade places and reclaim what was taken from them: the chance to know the parent they've never met—and perhaps mend whatever it was that broke them apart.

    Summary

    Beatrice Basset is holding onto Penelope’s finger with her whole tiny hand.

    Penelope’s expression is full of a type of longing so potent, that it makes a warmth flush over Colin’s whole body.

    Children. His Pen wants children. The thought makes Colin feel rather dizzy.
