    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton is a wanderer — always somewhere new, always charming his way through life without much reason to settle down. Among the people he keeps coming back to is Penelope Featherington, an old friend who has built exactly the quiet, grounded life he never wanted for himself. When a car accident puts Penelope's life in danger, something shifts in Colin that he can't shake. For the first time, he has to reckon with what she actually means to him — but Penelope has spent years making peace with who Colin is, and she's not waiting around. He has a lot to prove, and no guarantee she'll let him.

    Summary

    Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.

    "Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."

    She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—

    Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?

    Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is six and ten and on the precipice of making her debut into society when she goes to spend a month at Aubrey Hall. She is so excited to visit with her favorite family, which includes her dearest friend Eloise, the always kind and motherly Lady Violet, and of course the handsome, cheerful, and dreamy Colin. She is prepared to spend several weeks enjoying how uncomplicated and carefree the Bridgertons have always seemed to her before she embarks on the likely stressful journey of entering the marriage mart. What she is not prepared for, however, is one Bridgerton family member having a certain nighttime habit that makes everything distinctly complicated and even somewhat stressful for her at Aubrey Hall instead.

    Or, the one where Colin is a sleepwalker and his sleepwalking plays a very important role in Polin finding their happily ever after.

    Summary

    People talk a lot about the physical and emotional impact on women during “that time of the month.” For Penelope Featherington, though, there’s an entirely separate portion of the month that hits her the hardest, and the symptoms she experiences are distinct from that other time. It’s a different sort of ache that settles low in her belly, a different form of discomfort driving her to cocoon herself in bed, and a different type of tenderness that envelopes her body and her mind. As time goes by, it’s only getting harder and harder to deal with on her own. If only she knew someone kind and handsome and trustworthy to help her through it…

    --

    Or, Penelope experiences extreme horniness when she’s ovulating every month and Colin offers to sleep with her “as a friend.”
