Summary
There is something strange about Michaela Stirling.
Francesca cannot quite put her finger on what it is, but it has become clear after three weeks on the road to Scotland that she simply cannot be near her.
And Michaela - well, she is worried that Francesca Stirling née Bridgerton is a little plain. And one will eventually start to feel guilty teasing a plain person.

Summary
During her first season out, Francesca Bridgerton retreats into music and quiet to escape the pressures of society. When the Earl of Kilmartin comes to stay at Aubrey Hall, his cousin Michaela Stirling arrives with him—perceptive, thoughtful, and unexpectedly attuned to Francesca’s silences. Through shared conversations, music, and moments of private understanding, Francesca and Michaela form a connection neither fully names nor understands. With the marriage mart looming and expectations closing in, their bond grows in the spaces between restraint and longing, where being truly seen feels both comforting and dangerous.

Summary
If one did not watch Michaela closely, nothing would have seemed amiss. She smiled, as always, mirthful, as always; but Francesca was watching closely, and she saw that smile freeze, for just half a second, and then suddenly, like a jam jar coming loose after half an hour’s effort, Francesca understood.
“An innate indifference,” she said, “to men.”
