   Summary

   Penelope joins the Bridgertons on their annual Italian vacation, expecting sun, books, and a little family chaos—not Benedict sketching her from across the pool like he's trying to memorize her.

   Benedict hasn’t been able to paint in months—until she arrives. Suddenly, his muse has curly hair, oversized sunglasses, and a sharp wit that keeps him on edge.

   A slow-burn summer in Italy, where sunscreen is mandatory, tempers run hot, and inspiration comes when you least expect it.
