   Summary

   Colin Bridgerton is the first beta to be born to the prestigious Bridgerton family in generations. His designation brands him as useless, no better than a bastard in the eyes of the ton. Colin drowns himself in travel and drink, trying to come to terms with the knowledge that he is a shame to the family. His only reprieve is his friendship with Penelope Featherington, the only person who does not treat him differently because he is a beta. When Colin learns that Penelope is searching for an alpha husband, his entire world is turned upside down.

   Will Colin's buried instincts finally see the light? Or will he lose Penelope forever?
