    Summary

    Colin can’t help but catch Anthony’s dismissive words: “They’ve danced a couple of times together at a ball. Colin has done the same with Penelope Featherington. It does not signify.”

    He does not care at all for the way those words make him feel.

    A Season 1 “what if” AU.

    Summary

    How could she play with Colin’s heart? How dare she try to make a fool out of someone who only ever sought to help, who had had nothing but the purest of intentions when he approached her at the ball to save her from the old lord? How in the devil’s name was Portia supporting the falsehood of a courtship that Marina was weaving? What gave her the right? Why could Marina do it and not her?

    That last thought gave her pause, the cogs in her mind turning as her front teeth dug almost painfully into her bottom lip. Truly… If Marina could attempt to entrap Colin, then... why couldn’t Penelope do the same?

    Summary

    After Penelope falls out with Eloise over her popular gossip blog, all the Bridgertons cut contact with her. It's the worst thing that has ever happened to her, but after a few months of wallowing, Penelope moves to Scotland and buys a book shop and gets on with her life. It turns out she can live without the Bridgertons and she's happy enough with the new life she's cobbled together. No one knows anything about her here and that's how she likes it: complete and total separation from her life back in London and her old online persona.

    That is, until she spots Colin Bridgerton at the coffee shop next door.

    Summary

    After the end of the 1815 social season, Colin and Penelope decide to spend the off-season at Audrey Hall. Meanwhile, the rest of the Bridgerton family, including the newly arrived Viscount and Viscountess, reunite with Pen for the 1st time since the news of who is LW.
    A fun story of happily married Polin, spending time with the family, and falling into the usual Bridgerton chaos we know and love.

    Continuing with where Season 3 left before the epilogue, this story would be a slight AU, since we will have some differences in the location and situations the characters will go through.

    Summary

    “This is not happening Colin. I am not going to play any part in this, do you hear me?”

    “Of course, nobody would expect you to fall over at my feet, especially in light of my unforgivably rude comments last Season.” Colin said, all reason and calm as he collected his hat from a footman, “And what would be the entertainment in that? You must be permitted to test my mettle as a suitor. Indeed I am beginning to look forward to the chase.”

    “There will be no entertainment! No chase!” Penelope protested, panic steadily rising within her. “Colin-”

    “Good day, Miss Penelope.” Colin smiled, familiar laughter and devilry dancing on his handsome face. She watched in mute outrage as he tipped his hat to her and strolled out her front door.

    After his careless words ruined Penelope's prospects on the marriage mart, Colin is determined to do everything he can to restore her reputation and to find her a good match, even if it means pretending to court his best friend.

    However, outside forces with a grudge against the Bridgertons inadvertently transforms a wallflower into the most coveted prize of the London Season of 1815.

    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton is a callous and cruel phony, and Penelope has been his fool for the last time. Starting tonight, she’s carving out a new style, a new attitude, and a new life that doesn’t include him.

    (She does not love him.)

    Penelope Featherington is playing her new favorite game: pretending he doesn’t exist. She doesn’t write, she doesn’t visit, she doesn’t care. Fine. Colin has fresh stories to tell of his adventures, the approval of every man in the ton, and more female admirers than he knows what to do with.

    (He does not need her.)

    What if Penelope and Colin find their way back to each other at Lady Danbury’s ball?

    Summary

    Penelope turns her face towards Colin and finds herself unable to contain her smile - he’s watching Benedict weave through the crowd with his mouth twisted into a little grimace. “Are you really jealous?” She asks, lightly teasing. “Of your own brother?”

    “I am not jealous,” he replies huffily, though his hand on the small of her back does press just that little bit firmer, and she sways into his side. “I am simply saying that he is too familiar with my wife.”

    A feeling of such great adoration takes over her that, for a moment, she is struck dumb. What a thing, to have gone into this night scared and heartbroken and so sure that it would end in her being cast out by the Queen and the ton and her husband, and instead to end it with Benedict’s gentle teasing and her mother’s soft words and her husband, the man she has loved since she knew what it was to love at all, grumbling in displeasure at his own brother acting familial with his new sister.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton are soon to wed but in deep conflict about the future of Lady Whistledown. Neither Colin nor Eloise can seem to forgive her and as the wedding approaches, Penelope is forced to face what marriage may be like to a man she loves deeply but who may never see her as a whole person.

    This story embeds a mix of scenes and dialog from both the books and S3 of the TV series - though not always attributed to the same characters. AU storyline starting from a significant moment (that bugged me a lot) from the S3 Part2.

    Summary

    There is absolutely one thing that Penelope knows for sure. She is not dreaming.

    She knows she is not dreaming, because it’s all too… Colin. She recalls last season when he didn’t ask her to dance but rather swept her away on the floor before shattering her heart to pieces. And despite the painful memory, she knows that with all the flaws that Colin possesses, insincerity is not one of them.

    So as he leans over the door, with his hand reaching out to her, she nods her head and with more grit than she realizes she has, she takes his hand. Assuredly. Fervently. Loudly. Just as he was when he banged on the carriage door and demanded to be let in. If only she had known, her life would be forever changed from this decision.
