    Summary

    After turning thirty, Penelope decides she's done waiting for the perfect man and wants to be a mother. With the help of an esteemed fertility clinic, she selects a sperm donor and gets pregnant on her own. Scared to deal with the judgement of others, she lies and says that her ex boyfriend who moved away is the father.

    Though she and Colin have drifted in recent months, when he finds out her news, he vows to support her and show up for her and her baby. Her feelings for him muddy the waters, and she does her best to keep him at arms length during such an emotional time.

    --

    It all started with a brochure. 

    When Philippa struggled to get pregnant with her second, she and Albion looked into every option they could think of. At another painful Featherington family tea, Portia rattled off a list of old wives tales of sex positions they could try, earning groans and gags from all four of her daughters. Penelope glanced at the table, where the brochure lay forgotten, the words “Mayfair Fertility Clinic and Sperm Bank” sprawled in elegant typeface across the front, as though it were a fine dining menu and not an institution where men jerked off into cups.

    Summary

    How the hell had Penelope ended up here? Her day had started off so nicely, so normally, and now here she was, standing in a purple lacey bra and a bright red tutu, hands on her hips, practically commanding Colin Bridgerton to kiss her while he stared at her, looking vaguely sick (for the sake of her self esteem, she wasn’t going to look into that one.) 

     
    She really didn’t know why Colin was being so weird about it, it was only a kiss. Not just a kiss, a kiss brought about by one of the stupidest drinking games known to man, it wasn’t like she was expecting it to mean anything to him, a fact that she’d already told him multiple times. She thought that that would make it easier for him, but no, he was still practically frozen. 

     
    “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” Everyone else chanted through the wall. Even Alfred was joining in.

     
    “I… Pen, I…” Colin trailed off. She looked at him expectantly, waiting for the words that apparently wouldn’t come.

     
    Jesus, how long had they even been here at this point? This was getting a bit ridiculous. 

     
    “For God’s sake, Colin Bridgerton, are you going to kiss me or not?”

     Polin's first kiss but make it Nick and Jess's first kiss.
