    Summary

    Violet Bridgerton has had enough of her three eldest sons refusing to engage with the marriage mart. She has seen her daughters Daphne and Francesca married in the last four seasons but she wants more grandchildren and she wants them now.

    And so, in the week before the whole family and ton are due to descend on Aubrey Hall for the annual Hearts and Flowers Ball, Lady Violet has invited a select group of eligible ladies to the Hall to participate in a series of challenges where the ultimate prize is up for grabs: marriage to one of the three oldest Bridgerton brothers. Penelope Featherington is on her fourth year on the mart with no prospects.

    (Regency AU -
    multichap fic I will correct the chapter count on update.
    Whistledown exists, Colin didn’t make any foolish declarations in the Featherington gardens, Penelope and Eloise are grand. Prudence is still unmarried. This started out as a purely crack fic but I accidentally kept adding plot and making myself cry. There is still quite a lot of crack though. If you crave period accuracy, sorry. I researched some bits with fervour and then hugged an anachronism or two for the giggles.
    I’m trying to be consistent, but I make the rules and my brain is wonky).

    Summary

    Colin was fairly certain his heart was attempting to choke him, or leap from his throat. In fact, he could hardly hear anything, especially not the gasps and fervent whispers of those in the sanctuary as his body involuntarily stood up, his fingers tapping the pew in front of him without rhythm. He did not even register Eloise pulling on his waistcoat next to him. He was only aware of Penelope. Looking at him. In horror. (But at least she was looking at him). And he was certain she whispered, “Oh no.”

    --

    Colin didn't stop the proposal at the Queen's Ball, but he can stop the banns.

    Summary

    “I think you could do better.”

    She bites her tongue. That was rich coming from Colin, who only seemed to date girls who were thin, tanned and could not be bothered to know anything about current events. The late one he dated - Chloe, she thinks her name was, didn’t even know who the current prime minister was.

    She resists the urge to throw it back in his face - how he could definitely do better, find a nice girl who had more than five braincells and wore a top that did not look like it shrunk two sizes in the wash.

    No, it wasn’t her place and unlike him, she knew their friendship had certain boundaries.

    Or Colin always seems to find an issue with Pen's boyfriends
