    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

    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

    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

    It was Penelope's wedding day. One moment, she was standing outside the church with her mother, and then the next, she was on a horse with Colin, charging full speed ahead, scared out of her mind. But the ride was not what frightened her...it was the fact that she had just run off with a man who was not her groom.
    (S3, Regency)
