    Summary

    During a perfectly normal study session, Colin asks what he swears is an innocent question.

    Because it seems like having built-in pillows on one’s chest would make laying on one’s stomach and studying for an upcoming English exam almost comfortable.

    Then Penelope invites him to see for himself exactly how comfortable it is, and Colin’s afternoon takes a decidedly unexpected turn.

    Summary

    It's not the first time Colin has woken up with a dry mouth, an achy body and a severe case of ‘what the hell did I do last night?’ but it is definitely the first time he has woken up here.

    What’s happening…?

    What is this place…?

    Is that Penelope he can hear…?

    His panic and confusion melt away at the sound of her voice and he feels a sense of relief. Penelope is close, she’s here… she’s… very close, actually… very, very close.

    Wait… Is she…? Is he…? Could he be…?

    Inside her?

    Summary

    “Good,” Colin’s mouth curves upward as he hums, using his pen to underline ‘writers block.’ He leans forward, hands on his knees as he meets her eyes. “So, I'm thinking…while we’re both here, what if we swapped genres? You write a romance novel, and I will write one of your realistic fiction books–that way, the change in what kind of thing we’re writing about will break both of us out of this…creative lapse in judgement.”

    Penelope snorts, raising her eyebrows in complete and true disbelief. “Me…write a romance novel?” She says, her voice flat. “There’s no way you’re being serious.”

    “Fine. But we make it a contest. We have to finish this book by August and whoever sells the most copies wins. The loser has to endorse the book of the person who wins, repeatedly. I’m talking social media, press tours, when you’re giving out recommendations at the Notting hill bookshop, all of it,” Penelope argues firmly. “I want my name and the name of my books to be in your mouth, constantly.”

    Colin, looking a little awe struck by the initiative she’s taken, grins proudly. “Deal.”

    Summary

    After her secret identity is unmasked by her best friend and cruel mother, Penelope Featherington has no choice: she must leave London. Fast.
    Her very good friend and traveller Colin Bridgerton is set to depart for his second Grand Tour at dawn. He’s the perfect escape, but there’s a catch: he just publicly declared in her own garden that he would never dream of courting her. Will he be willing to help her run away, with the risk that entails for him? And if he does, will she survive being forced into the tight quarters of a carriage and the rolling decks of a ship with the man who just broke her heart?”

    Set after season 2, this is a story about forced proximity, high-seas adventure, hurt feelings, and slow (and then very fast) realisations. Did I mention there was only one bed?

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is an expert at being invisible. Deep in the throes of her PhD research, away from friends and family in a small Aberdeen attic, she has perfected the act of hiding her struggles from everyone. When a trip to London confirms her worst fears, she retreats to her cosy sanctuary, ready to let the world forget her entirely.
    But someone was paying closer attention than she realised.
    While everyone else accepted her polite texts and vague excuses, Colin Bridgerton noticed. Haunted by a moment of thoughtless betrayal and a sudden, terrifying need to bridge the distance between them, he follows her into the cold Scottish rain to join her under the rafters of her tiny attic.

    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton dozed off while working on some ledgers in his study at Featherington House and he awoke to find himself the same yet three years in the past and... invisible to everyone. He witnesses his wife's devoted defence of him in 1813 and he gains a new perspective on the kinds of scandals Lady Whistledown exposes - and who she is willing to ruin to protect those she loves.

    ~

    Or, that one where Colin time travels to watch how his wife - three years younger - condemned Marina's scheme to entrap him.

    Summary

    Just one kiss.

    The question had surprised him; although it should not have, because her bravery has always been one of the many qualities he admired most about her.

    It does not have to mean anything.

    Still, Colin had hesitated. Not because of her, but for her. To ensure she understood the gravity of her ask. To allow her a respite to withdraw it if she wished to do so. But Penelope had not relented, instead murmuring his name and a desperate please that made him weak and ready to surrender to her.

    And since he is Colin and she is Penelope, and he would do almost anything for her, he did as she asked.

    They kissed, just the gentlest brush of their mouths moving together, and—

    After the events of 3x02, Penelope vanishes, Colin falls apart, and a series of very different events are put into motion.

    Summary

    At the end of the day, it's just biology.

    Penelope tells herself this endlessly. She also tells herself that Colin Bridgerton has looked right through her for ten years, that asking him to help her through her heat is purely transactional, and that she is definitely, definitely not still in love with him.

    Summary

    The day Penelope finally accepted that she was a beta was crushing. She was a romantic at heart and longed for the unwavering connection an alpha had with their omega. She shouldn’t have been surprised, the chance of her presenting as anything else was about as near zero as it could get. Unheard of in the medical community, almost disproven by science.

    She gave herself the night to mourn, to accept that any love story she had would pale in comparison to the ones she yearned for.

    Her only consolation was that Colin Bridgerton was a beta too.

    -

    As betas, Penelope and Colin are used to their relationship being misunderstood by his family but an unexpected heat rippling through the omegas at Aubrey Hall pushes Colin's insecurities to the forefront.

    Summary

    The only thing he can think is that it’s too damn loud in this club. At twenty years old, Colin Bridgerton may be too young to be so concerned about the decibel of the music. But three of his younger sisters are here and they’re all dancing like maniacs and he’s starting to lose his grip on his sanity. 
    He scans the crowd and spots all three of them - Daphne, Eloise, and Francesca. And of course, the girl of honour, Penelope Featherington. 

    Colin is regretting sneaking Fran in, but the puppy dog eyes she gave him when she realised she was going to miss Penelope’s party was too much to resist. Tonight is the night their favourite adopted Bridgerton sibling turns 18 and he felt that the core four needed to be there to celebrate the occasion. 

    In a family of eight children, there’s more kids with middle child syndrome than one can count, but as the middle four, who were all born almost exactly one year apart in quick succession, their bond has always been the closest.

    OR

    Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Colin, and Penelope are the best of friends. What happens when on the night of her 18th birthday, Penelope asks Colin to kiss her? As a friend, of course.
