   Summary

   “I am not asking you to marry my sister, my lord. I would not do either of you such an unkindness.” Kate shakes her head at the absurdity of the notion. "I have dissuaded my sister, after much conversation, from pursuing a marriage with you further. I have a plan to ensure our mamas and Lady Danbury dissolve the engagement amicably, without tarnishing our families’ names.”

   After the Sheffield dinner, Kate takes matters into her own hands.

   An AU where Kate agrees to end Edwina and Anthony's engagement, secures her family's future, and falls in love along the way. (Bonus: the wedding of my nightmares never takes place.)
