Summary
Penelope never felt more warm, safe, and secure than she did when she was being held by Colin’s strong arms, her face buried into his neck, inhaling his scent. She felt completely surrounded and protected by him, like nothing could touch her. Her heart constricted. It was moments like these when she felt she would never be able to claw her way back up the slippery slope that was loving Colin Bridgerton.
***
After years of close friendship and mutual pining, Penelope and Colin finally find their way to one another, and try to navigate a new relationship while dealing with the scars left behind from Penelope’s previous relationship.

But after tragedy strikes, everything changes, and Penelope and her family unexpectedly find themselves in the midst of the Bridgerton family, who accept them with open arms and open hearts. The question is - will Penelope allow herself to be loved and taken care of in the way she's only ever dreamed of, or will the guilt she feels for moving forward lead to more than just her own broken heart?

Summary
At least now she knew—
Knew, without question, that Colin Bridgerton would never love her.
And with Eloise gone as well, there was truly nothing left to lose.So Penelope Featherington stopped being sweet.
If the world didn’t want her as she was, she would give it something else.
—————————
After hearing Colin's words at the end of Season 2, that "he would never court Penelope Featherington", Penelope decides to forget all about propriety and to do as she pleases.But what happens when Colin Bridgerton returns to London… and the quiet girl next door is no longer so quiet, no longer so sweet, and no longer his?
Can love overcome years of resentment, longing, and secrets?
A slow-burn story of identity, desire, courage, growth, and the lengths we go to be truly seen.
—————————
—————————
—————————
NOW COMPLETE. This story begins relatively lightly, but grows more intense, realistic, and emotionally complicated as it goes. Everyone makes mistakes, everyone has their reasons, and there are very few easy answers, so expect complications.- Language:

Summary
Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.
"Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."
She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—
Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?
--
Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.
