    Summary

    Colin marries Marina, and now Penelope is trying to distance herself. Colin has come to regret his decision almost immediately, but will try to make the best of it... until he realizes what actual love feels like.

    A story of love, loss, friendship, grief, and second chances, not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    In the year 1822, Mister Colin Bridgerton makes a grand return to England after almost 7 years of self imposed exile and reconnects with his estranged friend, Penelope. Will he be able to break the walls she keeps building between them and mend the bridges she is intent on destroying?

    “What’s stopping you from living your life then, Pen? You’re living alone, aren’t you? No mother watching over your shoulder. No husband dictating your choices…”

    “I mean, I can live alone, yes, but I’m still tethered. To reputation. To expectations. To the knowledge that no matter how independently I breathe, I will always be the subject of whispered pity or amusement. A woman alone is never just alone—she is sad, or defiant, or pitiful… never simply herself.”

    “Come with me. For a month or two. See the world outside Mayfair parlours and boring soirees. You said you wanted to feel free. Let this be that.”

    “But how? Where would we stay? What would people say, Colin? I’m not naïve—I know how this would look. Who would even accompany me as a chaperone?”

    “Spinsters do not need chaperones, Pen. You said it yourself once.”

    Summary

    Marina Thompson had almost ensnared the most coveted pack of the Ton. With one scandal sheet the potential lovematch/entrapment/scheme had come crashing down.
    The Featherington's reputation has been left decimated. Unhelped by Portia's determination to pretend all is well, and the fact that there is no heir in sight, and most certainly since Penelope at nine and ten is yet to present.

    With one final ball of the season left to withstand, one night will set in motion a chain of events that will change everything.

    Summary

    Penelope is invited to spend her first full summer at Aubrey Hall with the Bridgertons. She now has unfettered access to Colin, who never returned for the social season after his travels the summer following the Featherington Ball.
    –
    Canon divergence (no Whistledown, among other little shifts.)

    Essentially an imagining of what might have happened if Colin and Penelope had had more time apart, more time for Colin to fester and wilt, and more time for Penelope to “move on.” Also, what might have happened if they had had even more unsupervised access to one another.
    -
    In truth, I just wanted a very drunk Colin to show Pen some fireflies. But of course it is never that simple.
    Outline is drawn, work in progress.

    Summary

    Penelope gets the sight of a wafer thin girl with dark brown tresses tied up with pink ribbons.

    Her dress is so worn it’s partially sheer and Penelope swallows at the sight of her body.

    This is what men like. What the Lord’s come to fancy when they grow sick of their wives
