    Summary

    ㅤ🎶 And then I go and spoil it all

    by saying somethin’ stupid like I love you 🎶

    It all started when Penelope openly lost her marbles during the staff meeting, a week after their trip to Aubrey Hall.

    A single long weekend–meant for sweet marshmallow-roasting–had turned their bond of nearly two decades into a wreckage of silent suffering, stretching her resolve so thin she snapped. She wanted to claw her way out of her Colin-shaped bubble wrap because she couldn’t breathe anymore.

    So, why not pour gasoline on the fire in front of the whole office?

    All she wanted was to avoid him. All he wanted was for her to talk to him and tell him what broke her. The only communication–forced and charged with tension–begs the question: could the remains of their friendship vanishing before their eyes force them to see what they've both been too blind to admit, or will they insist on saying something stupid that isn't ”I love you”?

    Summary

    The Selkie was a rough old pub, only a stone's throw from east London's best brothels and the working men they both served. There wasn't anywhere quite like it though, not with Charlotte running the place and seizing every opportunity she could get - even if it meant making deals with a gangster and setting his favourite barmaid in his sights to keep him sweet.

    Penelope had always been taught the Devil would have a handsome face - what she wasn't prepared for is for him to be a gentleman as well.

    What does a poor working girl do when a dangerous man offers her what none ever has before: safety.

    Summary

    After twenty years of shared secrets and whispers. Penelope and Colin are officially leaning into their "hag era" with a marriage of convenience. At thirty-eight and forty-three, they’ve traded the pressure of the marriage mart for a comfortable pact: she gets a travel partner to spice up her retired-Whistledown life, and he finally gets the constant companion he’s been chasing across four continents. It’s a perfectly sensible, purely practical arrangement... isn't it?

    A mix of book and show Polin because I'm a sucker for them.
