    Summary

    They had danced, once, away from the gazes of Matchmaking Mamas, and it had left them with an odd sort of friendship that neither ever really spoke to anyone else about.

    Everyone watched as Penelope and Anthony courted and were courted by good people, only to end up exactly where neither thought they would ever be: with each other.

    This is that story.

    Summary

    Anthony Bridgerton was never supposed to confide in Penelope Featherington. But between the lines of their letters and the spaces between their meetings, something tender takes root.
    As seasons change and scandals rise, they remain each other’s quiet constant—until friendship begins to look an awful lot like love.

    ---

    “You write like a man twice your age,” Penelope scrawled at the bottom of her reply.

    Anthony’s next letter arrived with only one line:
    “That’s rich coming from a woman who hides behind an alias to scold the entire ton.”

    Summary

    A piece of Voldemort's soul attached to baby Harry Potter that fateful Halloween night. Over the years, the soul piece witnessed how much danger and pain his host was in. How far would the soul go to protect the child he began to care for, especially when the boy started to care for him in return? Oh, just a little over-protective care, some magic training, maybe some necromancy...

    Summary

    The course of a life can change in mere moments, as more than a few mismatched couples can attest...

    - Lady Whistledown’s Society Papers

    Penelope intervenes when a scheming young miss would have trapped Colin into marriage—by taking her place. The best that she can hope for is a marriage of avoidance, rather than outright resentment.

    Colin is rescued from entrapment and considers himself the most fortunate of men. If only he could stop malicious gossipmongers such as Lady Whistledown from speaking so unkindly about his future wife.

    *****

    Summary

    Colin had been traveling the world ever since he dropped out of university after finding his girlfriend with another guy. He had left the heartbreak behind and lived a life most people could only dream of. Yet, he felt like he was missing something... He had been looking for his purpose for over a decade now but maybe it was closer to home than he had thought. Maybe it was finally time to settle down...

    Penelope had been in love with her best friend's brother from the second they had met. But it was hopeless... He would never see her that way. He had said so himself. Twice. At twenty-eight and with a major book deal under her belt, it was finally time to get over him and move on with her life...

    Luckily, there was a new dating app for writers to pen their own happy ever after. The Lord & Lady Whistledown app did not allow for profile pictures or any identifiable data beyond name and location, encouraging its users to form deeper connections without getting distracted by superficialities. Maybe this was exactly what Colin and Penelope were looking for. Will they finally find the piece that had been missing in their lives?
