Summary
Six months.
She was to be an aunt. She was to write pamphlets that would make the men of the Royal Society red-faced with fury. She was to watch Hyacinth grow up. She was to spend hundreds more afternoons in the park, listening to Cressida's sharp wit. She couldn't just... cease to exist before the leaves turned green again.---
Or, Eloise Bridgerton's life is turned upside down when she gets sick at the beginning of the season - Hanahaki, the doctor calls it - forcing her to confront her deepest fears and desires. As her family navigates the whirl of the ton, Eloise yearns for a future she may never have. In a race against time, love, and societal expectations, will Eloise find the courage to embrace her truth before it's too late?

Summary
It takes only a second before something very strange happens to Eloise’s brain, an amplified version of all the times the very same thing happened over the summer. It’s like wind in her ears, her vision narrowed and focused and completely out of her control, everything about her feels out of control. Suddenly there is nothing else in the world more interesting than Cressida’s tongue brushing against her own fingers she had brought to her mouth, cleaning them of the melted vanilla.
The swoop of her stomach and a surprising pang between her legs causes her to drop her own container with the surprise and force of the emotion. Such an ache that she had been stomping on since returning to town comes back in full force, as if the withdrawal of not acknowledging it forced it to become stronger.
This very confusing want that Cressida had caused her over the months of their friendship pounds through her with a vengeance, with an anger at the audacity of Eloise even trying to ignore it as if she didn’t spend weeks trying to control the scary pit of it at all. She’s not even sure what she wants really, just that… that…
“Your ice cream!” Cressida says with sorrow.

Summary
Cressida’s smile is small, kind, her pale hand warm when she reaches across the table to grip Eloise’s wrist over the cuff of her glove. It’s a gentle touch, there and gone, but the warmth of Cressida’s naked fingers lingers.

Summary
“It does not matter, Cressida,” She says, sitting down beside her on the, certainly not made for sitting, little drawer in front of the window closest to Eloise’s table, “letters still exist and I would be delighted to exchange them with you.”
Cressida is afraid of putting meaning where there is none to put but she thinks she sees in Eloise’s eyes a desperate plea for agreement. It appears so concrete that it leaves Cressida speechless, she finds.
“Wouldn’t you?” Eloise asks when she doesn’t say anything and the desperate plea transforms to apprehensiveness and fearful disappointment.
“Yes,” Cressida swallows, “Yes, I would.” She gets up and says, more to herself than to Eloise, “It is settled then.”
