Summary
Eloise was at best, furious with her, at worst, no longer her friend. Colin had promised to look out for her, told her she was special to him, then not 15 minutes later was amongst his friends deriding her in a fashion Cressida Cowper would have cackled at. Her mother had worked with her late father’s successor to scam the Ton out of God only knew how much money, whilst gambling with her sister’s reputation by engaging her to said criminal.
The chips have fallen where they may and now Penelope must put things in motion. This was not one of her favorite plans but it served its purpose and aided with a big non-Whistledown problem.
Secrets have hurt her family and hopefully she can clear the air.

Summary
Colin had been traveling the world ever since he dropped out of university after finding his girlfriend with another guy. He had left the heartbreak behind and lived a life most people could only dream of. Yet, he felt like he was missing something... He had been looking for his purpose for over a decade now but maybe it was closer to home than he had thought. Maybe it was finally time to settle down...
Penelope had been in love with her best friend's brother from the second they had met. But it was hopeless... He would never see her that way. He had said so himself. Twice. At twenty-eight and with a major book deal under her belt, it was finally time to get over him and move on with her life...
Luckily, there was a new dating app for writers to pen their own happy ever after. The Lord & Lady Whistledown app did not allow for profile pictures or any identifiable data beyond name and location, encouraging its users to form deeper connections without getting distracted by superficialities. Maybe this was exactly what Colin and Penelope were looking for. Will they finally find the piece that had been missing in their lives?

Summary
"Everyone has their unrequited love story, yeah? My best friend, she had a brother. Well, she had four brothers, but there was one in particular. He was like the sun… and I—I was constantly pulled into his orbit."
It was a throwaway line in a throwaway interview that nobody was meant to read.
A story about missed connections and growing older and what happens when you finally stop running.

Summary
Colin has grown accustomed to his wife’s replies. In fact, he likes them very much. Sometimes, he believes he knows them better than he knows his own self:
Yes, darling.
Do not be foolish, Colin.
Dearest, could you fetch Elliot’s rattle?
It is only when they move their effects back to Penelope’s childhood home that he learns there are some she has yet kept back from him.
For those unaware, emotional intimacy very much turns them on.

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.
