Summary
He lowered his voice. “You are the most capable and intelligent person I have yet to meet. You make all of us look like fools.”
Her mouth opened in surprise before she quickly hid her feelings again. “Even you, my lord?”
She was smiling, clearly expecting an argument, but Anthony did not want her to think he took this lightly. He needed to correct her thinking. She needed to know that his initial promises were changing. Even if she did not reciprocate, he valued their honest rapport.
“You have made me the biggest fool, I think. For I thought I could pursue this courtship without any affection or strong feelings. Yet, it is impossible for me to feel nothing when I am with you.”
************
Anthony decides that Kate is the only woman fit to be Viscountess Bridgerton and catches feelings along the way. Fortunately, so does Kate.

Summary
AU - The Sharmas arrive a week before they do in the TV series and neither Kathani nor Anthony are self-sacrificing disasters.

Summary
Anthony had watched her sail away until she was nothing but a spot on the horizon. Until his heart had shredded itself again and again and again on the broken pieces of the person he used to be that still resided in his chest
OR
“Very well, Mrs…?”
She’d trailed off, waiting for her to fill in the space with her name. smith. She’d practiced that on the ship as well. Mrs Smith. Chosen for how nondescript it was, how many people in England bore that name, impossible to trace. She would be Mrs. Smith, and in a few months, when it would be feasible that she could pass off one of the letters Mary would send her as news from her husband: She would be a widow. But when she had opened her mouth, a different name came out. “Mrs Bridgerton. I’m Mrs. Bridgerton.”OR

Summary
After months of longing glances, quickening breaths and breaking hearts, Kate and Anthony are finally to be married.
The couple has much to prepare for; first they must break the news of their engagement and then the wedding craze starts: dress fitting, cake tasting and flower arranging, much to keep the soon-to-be-wed couple busy. Lots of preparation for the two lovebirds who have already waited so long to be able to hold each other in their arms. However will they wait patiently to say "I do?"
Set right at the end of season 2 of Bridgerton, this story is for all of us who felt frustrated not to get a chance to see more of Kate and Anthony living happily ever after, on their way to their wedding, and after. This story will be all love, pinning and barely contained desire (or not contained at all)

Summary
He stares at her for a moment, the ghost of his laughter clinging to his lips. His full, rose-pink lips. And then he opens them, and out comes the sweetest honey. “May I have the next dance, Miss Sharma?” Kate’s mouth drops, and she feels a flush zip up her spine. Never mind that she really, truly does want to dance with this stranger, wants to feel those arms brush against her, his hands around her own, have him smile at her.
“What makes you think I would accept the offer from a rake as such as yourself?”
He tucks his chin to his chest, and the way his grin makes her heart thump is really, terribly, unfortunate.
“I assure you, Miss Sharma, any liberties shared with my sister are not as cunning or as evil as you are imagining, and what with my mother out hunting her this very moment, I believe there are bigger issues to worry ourselves over for Eloise's sake.” He finishes, leaning slightly in, “wouldn’t you agree?”
***
Anthony arrives to the season a little later than expected, and Kate finds herself charmed by a pleasing smile, what chance did they have? Anthony isn't looking for a wife, but may have accidentally found one, anyway.

Summary
Rick snorts. “They’re not that bad.”
Wordlessly, Evy looks back over at Jonathan and Ardeth.
“If you think about it, I'm doing them a favour. Jewellery never looks quite right on dead people,” Jonathan is saying, flicking his wrist in comic disdain. A drop of whisky lurches forcefully from his glass and lands on Ardeth’s thigh, and Jonathan leans forward to pat it dry with his jacket sleeve. “Terribly sorry, old boy. I get a bit animated after a finger or two of the good stuff.”
Ardeth’s eyes are very, very wide indeed.
“Jesus, you’re right,” says Rick.
After 20 years of being subjected to more yearning than any sister should ever have to witness, Evy decides that enough's enough.
