    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton had it all: a beautiful wife, four beautiful children, and a fulfilling career.

    Saying he’s content is an understatement; he loves this life.

    That is until he’s yanked from this reality and finds himself in the hospital, awakening from a coma.

    It turns out he is not married and never has been. Penelope’s just his friend, his children don’t exist, and his perfect job is merely a pipe dream.

    On a journey of rehabilitation, self-discovery, and grief, Colin must come to terms with the life he has and build it into the one that he dreamed of.

    …trying to convince the girl he’s known as his wife of their wonderful life together shouldn’t be too tricky, right?

    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton is a rather popular travel influencer on Instagram and contributor to GQ magazine. He goes home for the holidays to visit his family after a particularly long stretch abroad. Somehow, he ends up going on an all-expenses paid trip to a little slice of heaven in the Caribbean with his best friend, Penelope Featherington. He’s not used to traveling with another person, but he finds himself rather looking forward to the time away with her even if he’s not sure what to expect. He expects it will all go according to plan. What could possibly go wrong when embarking on a trip with your best friend after all?

    Penelope works in a junior position at a publishing house in London, scraping her way financially through young adulthood. She’s also doing her best to get over her decade plus long infatuation with her best friend Eloise Bridgerton’s older brother Colin. Somehow, she finds herself agreeing to accompany him on a trip to Turks and Caicos after the Christmas holiday. She doesn’t know how she’ll manage it, but Penelope is determined to ensure this trip goes smoothly and that she doesn’t let her heart get ahead of her brain. She and Colin will never be together romantically. Not in a million years.

    Penelope Featherington, however, will do everything in her power to let her saviour know that she does not, in fact, need saving and would quite like for him to stop his meddling.

    The two come together through the 1814 Season to navigate business, a saviour complex, and the terrifying notion of telling your friend you are in love with them.

He has the plan but now he needs the girl, which he soon finds to be more difficult than he expected. But what happens when he meets the perfect girl to do the job, but she's just a little too perfect?
