Summary
“Me, court Penelope Featherington?” Colin replied on a laugh. “Never in your wildest fantasies, Fife.”
And just like that, Penelope's heart shattered. When Lord Fife calls the next morning, she refuses to see him, her humiliation still too fresh to see one of the witnesses to her complete rejection at the hands of Colin Bridgerton. Eventually she agrees to see him and is shocked to learn that, not only does he want to apologize, but he wants to be friends. Can she really be friends with the man who'd led Colin to dismiss her? Could she trust he was truly regretful? Or was she being toyed with again?

Summary
Colin felt his stomach drop.
“Penelope,” he croaked out. “I was simply joking – I-I mean to say, it was nothing but gentlemen teasing each other-“
“And yet you thought it appropriate to condemn me to an unmarriageable status.” She continued harshly, mouth twisting up into a sneer. “You thought it acceptable that a man in your position, a part of the most influential family amongst the ton, should declare a young woman so unworthy of marriage that the thought itself was simply amusing. That to ensure that no bachelor would dare to be seen pursuing me and therefore sentence me to a life of a spinster. That is what you thought it fair to do.”
******
Somehow, Colin has seriously, completely, messed up.His best friend, his only real friend, is furious with him and he doesn't know how to fix this. How can you undo the kind of mistake he had made? How can you redeem yourself to a woman like Penelope Featherington? How can you tell her that you might actually love her instead?
Colin had a feeling this was not going to be easy.

Summary
The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.
The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.
