Summary
“I know you miss Colin, I miss him too, mother.” Benedict said softly, sounding so many years younger than he ever had before, “He may be a man of seven and thirty but he is still my little brother. He is still the boy I taught to climb trees, cheat at cards, play pall mall, smoke cheroot and steal Anthony’s good whiskey. I love him, I miss him. But I cannot carry this blame, I cannot feel guilt for my family, for my child, for the children we will have.”
Violet finally cracks at Colin's distance after the events of part 2.

Summary
Months of letters unreturned, Colin Bridgerton suddenly hears that Penelope Featherington is to be wed, he is completely anguished and desolate—only to learn that it's a cover for something even more sinister: Penelope has been in a severe accident. Desperate to see her and protect her, Colin sets off for Ireland and arrives to find her unconscious in an infirmary, where he vows to never leave her again. As he fulfills his vow to take care of her, Colin realizes that he has been in love with her all along, but just as he begins to hope for a future together, he finds her room empty one day—Penelope has mysteriously vanished.
Five long years of desperate searching, Colin unexpectedly meets a transformed Penelope, far from his Pen, now a resilient tradeswoman with no memory of their past. Determined to rekindle their lost connection, Colin faces the ultimate challenge of helping her remember the love she once held for him—a love he had squandered and taken for granted. Colin must confront his past mistakes and fight to win back the heart of the woman he now knows is his past, his present and his future.

Summary
Penelope woke up alone. Alone and in her childhood bedroom. For the third day in a row. Her hand slid down to her lower abdomen. The life that was supposed to be fluttering there did not exist yet and neither did the beautiful children that she had already given birth to.
She had three days to accept that something had happened that had sent her back to just before her first season. She wished she had more time, but with having to wake up every day in the wrong house, the wrong bed, without her husband and children—Penelope had to accept that her current present was her new reality.
No matter how often she cried every morning, hours before Rae came to get her ready for the day.

Summary
“Fail to unders-” Colin shook his head and took a step closer to her. “I’m sure you are aware that it is a gentleman’s duty to marry a lady should he bring dishonour upon her.”
“Yes, but you’re not a gentleman, you’re Colin,” she interrupted him, her blue eyes boring into his, “You don’t count.”
Taken aback by the explanation, he could only stare at her in disbelief. Those words were familiar to him, yet they made him feel strange.
"Just look at our surroundings," Penelope gestured to the empty room. “We are without a chaperone, as we have been on multiple occasions. Suppose someone were to enter through those doors at this very moment, we would be under an obligation to marry, regardless of whether or not we kissed. So, what difference does it make?”

The year is 1815, and Colin Bridgerton devises the brilliant strategy to aid Penelope Featherington in attracting eligible suitors.
