Summary
What if an issue at the printer’s office caused Penelope’s column about Colin and Marina to be delayed until after they were well on their way to Gretna Green? What if that column tipped off Anthony Bridgerton as to Lady Whistledown’s identity and he used it to blackmail Pen into marrying him so that he could fulfill his duty and still keep Sienna on the side? But, we all know that the best laid plans never quite work out that way, don’t we?
This is a Penelope and Anthony story. He has not met (and will not meet) Kate and Colin is no longer an option for Pen. If you can’t handle that, then DON’T READ THIS FIC because it is NOT for you.

Summary
A Bridgerton modern AU set in the United States instead of England where Anthony and Penelope find themselves drawn to each other unexpectedly. In this fic, Anthony is a widower and Colin is a dumbass, so if you’re superfans of the original couples, this fic definitely is NOT for you (SO DON'T READ IT). I have tried my best to honor Kate’s memory and capture Anthony's struggle to move on from her while also exploring Pen and Colin's complicated friendship.
Note: If you're going to binge this fic, it may be easier to do "Entire Work" or download it versus chapter by chapter. I write short chapters, so it may feel less choppy that way.

Summary
This is just a very loose idea I got while doing my 50th re-watch of Bridgerton. I've played with the timeline a little bit, but this takes place at the Hastings Ball in S1E8.
Anthony sees Colin and Penelope speak after going to see Siena and having her shatter his heart, and he feels a little bad for her and has to be her sort of knight in dented armour. Shenanigans to ensue.

Summary
This started off as a one-shot snapshot of a fight I imagined between Anthony, Colin, and Penelope. AU set in modern times. In this imagining, Pen and Anthony bonded over broken hearts and Colin found out they've been seeing each other. I decided to turn it in a full story.
I've just had this scene going around in my head so I decided to write it out. Plus I feel like there should be more Penthony stories out there, so here's a bit of one more.
The line I really wanted to work with was "You were everything to me and I was nothing to you."
Let me know if you think I should come up with the rest of this version of the story!
