    Summary

    When Penelope Featherington finds herself still unmarried at the ripe old age of five and twenty, she is forced to become a governess for a wealthy little girl. Unfortunately, working as a governess affords a woman much fewer freedoms than Penelope is used to, meaning she has no control over the situation when her job brings her uncomfortably close to her ex-fiancé Colin.

    Or, a Jane Eyre Au.

    Summary

    The flowers are the same for no two people. Some appear of their own volition; some are caused by touch. The only thing anyone can agree on is that they are caused by one’s strongest emotions.

    Penelope watches as flowers appear on her skin during the social season of 1815.

    Summary

    Eloise swipes angrily at the tears falling without her permission, panic building in her chest. “I do not believe it. I will not. He is just late. And the mail is behind. It always is.”

    Benedict moves to intercept her pacing. “El.”

    She steps away from him, racking her brain for possibilities other than what has been presented. His letters are just late. And Colin just missed the ship. He was too busy chasing adventure to pay attention to the day. That is all. He will arrive any day now, full of ridiculous stories and asking after Penelope just to annoy her.

    Penelope.

    He wrote to Pen last time!


    Lost letters provide a chance for reconnection. They can stay as they are or they can choose to fight for the families and futures they want.
