Summary
“This,” Edmund announced proudly, puffing out his chest, “is my Uncle Colin. He’s a pirate.”
Penelope’s eyes sparkled with amusement. “A pirate?”
Colin coughed. “Not exactly. But I do travel for work, and I write about the places I visit. Technically, I’m a travel writer. The pirate thing is a bit of… creative branding.”
“And he has maps,” Edmund added, like that was the clincher.
OR
Colin was roped by his nephew for show and tell, where he met his teacher.

Summary
There lay in Penelope a sickness, or so she had been told.
A very specific kind that only this physician, as he called himself, could potentially be willing to alleviate for her, if there were any hope at all. At least that was what the flyer had said.
A gentleman by the name of Mr Bridgerton had developed a technique of stimulatory effect to relieve the sufferings of women. Of sharp tongues and short tempers gone in a few months or less, within three sessions with his special apparatus.

“Perhaps you should take a seat,” said Violet.
Colin wouldn't remember the details of what his mother told him next. He would remember her hand warm on his knee, her eyes wide with concern, her voice gentle as velvet. All of it in stark contrast to the devastating news she shared.
Penelope was ruined.

Summary
Penelope Featherington is officially over Colin Bridgerton.
Deservedly so. She’d worked tirelessly over the last twelve months to move on from him. She’d listened to Lizzo on repeat, read every self-help book under the sun, been to therapy, and even changed the plot of her novel from a coming-of-age romance to a zombie thriller in a world devoid of men. In fact, she was seeing someone, not exclusively, but it was certainly heading in that direction. She’d done everything in her power to move on from her stupid, heart-wrenching, soul-destroying crush. Everything short of having a lobotomy.
Which was why it was a tad concerning that she’d just shagged him.

Summary
"You are a flower ready to bloom, Miss Featherington."
After the events of last season, Penelope is throwing herself into writing Lady Whistledown. The only thing that stands in her way is her meddlesome family. The best way to escape from them? Why, getting married, of course. When Lady Danbury offers to mentor Penelope, she begins her quest to turn from simple wallflower, to blossoming rose... or at the very least, a daisy.
Colin was finding out the hard way that this flower had thorns.
Returning home for the social season, Colin is feeling, well, rather despondent. His best friend did not return a single one of his letters, and now she is referring to him as Mr. Bridgerton. When he realizes that Penelope's desire is to find a husband this year, Colin is determined to work his way back into her good graces, through helping instruct her in the ways of wooing.
"We will turn you into the loveliest, most enchanting flower the ton has ever seen."
But what happens when these secret lessons to find Penelope love work perhaps a little too well? And on the very last person they intended: Colin himself?

Penelope felt her cheeks heat. “A forfeit is usually a- a-”
“A kiss?” he offered.
Penelope nearly dropped her cue stick. If it were possible, her skin would catch aflame.
Colin rounded the billiards table, strolling as if he were wandering the paths of Hyde Park. “Or perhaps a piece of clothing?”

Summary
“Read it again Pen,” Colin said softly.
She looked back at him, eyes wide and blinking, biting her lower lip, drawing in his attention.
Until today, not an impure thought had passed through his mind of Penelope. He suddenly felt like the wind was knocked out of him. His eyes snapped up to hers, her blue eyes wide and blinking rapidly. He wasn’t sure what to say. It felt like the air had changed around them. All he could think about was her in that moment. Touching her hair, caressing her cheeks, kissing her lips.
He took a deep breath. He could not make sense of the impulses he was having, “please, read it again.”
She swallowed, turned back to the page, and started reading it again. He listened to her sweet voice recite the words of Byron. Did she pick this poem on purpose? ‘How could she’ he reasoned, ‘she’s never seen this book, how would she know’. He was so lost in thought; he didn’t realize she had finished. He wasn’t ready for her to stop reading, what was the last part? She looked over at him again. Had she moved closer to him? Or was he leaning into her?
“Again,” He said, wondering if she could hear him as it came out almost as a whisper.
