Summary
“Wait— Hold the lift!”
Instinctively, she turns, punching a finger into the metal Open Doors button just as a large hand wraps around one of the doors in an attempt to stop them closing. The incredibly—annoyingly—attractive bespectacled face of Colin Bridgerton appears as they start sliding back. His eyebrows shooting up in surprise at the sight of her.
“Oh. It’s you.”

Summary
His mother was convinced he’d only moved to Notting Hill to have his own great love story. And while, yes, he may have the floppy hair and bumbling Britishness required of a Richard Curtis character, the current state of his love life (nonexistent) has Colin convinced his Hugh Grant moment is still a long way off.

Summary
Before the fights and the couples’ therapy and the slow, inevitable drift. Before the night he came home from work to find Marina on the sofa, pale and drawn, already knowing every word that was about to come out of her mouth (because the words were already on his tongue, weren’t they?). Before the thousands spent on divorce lawyers and moving into the sad flat Anthony found for him and having to tell the fucking kids (worst bit – Oliver had gotten so quiet and Amanda had cried silently; wouldn’t let either of them touch her).
He could have gotten out of it. Ben had called him and said we can find someone else in a way that made it very clear they probably couldn’t, and Colin being Colin (reliable; helpful – a dope, maybe), had said no, no, I’ll do it.
Which is how he ends up in Bari, parked in a service station in a cramped hire car; forty-five; divorced; and about to embark on a two-week trip across Italy he had booked in an attempt to save his marriage. Without, you know, his wife.
.OR: post-divorce, Colin Bridgerton takes his friend Penelope on a road trip to Italy

Summary
“You earnestly believe you can trick me into loving you in three months? Mr. Bridgerton, this shall be the easiest-won wager any woman has ever known.”
Colin chuckles. “I believe,” he says, “I can do it in one. The latter two shall be enjoyed as our honeymoon.”
Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton haven’t properly seen each other in years.
Now, they find themselves maneuvered into an arranged marriage neither of them wants.
Penelope, sharp-tongued and self-possessed, has no intention of being anyone’s consolation prize. Colin, newly returned from the continent and having already insulted his bride, did not comprehend quite the little spitfire he'd been given.
And so, a wager is struck: Three months to earn her regard, or surrender the match.

Summary
Penelope asks her boyfriend, Alfred Debling, to meet her friend, Colin, in the park to partake in Alfie’s favorite hobby: birdwatching. He acquiesces, determined to still engage in his favorite pastime despite Colin’s status as an amateur.
Penelope also asks her best friend, Colin, to meet her new friend, Alfie, in the park to partake in Colin’s new hobby. Despite being upset upon learning Pen won’t be coming, Colin agrees to meet Alfie, determined to get to know Penelope’s new friend.
One would assume, after an afternoon full of puns, plumage, and plenty of revelations, that the two men would be birds of a feather.
Right?
