Summary
Anthony glanced at his brother, who had been uncharacteristically stationed along the wall of the ballroom for the entire night. Well, it would have been uncharacteristic if he hadn’t done the same for the last two balls. Not dancing, not talking to anyone – Colin’s eyes were fixed unerringly on one target as she moved around the room.
His concentration was intense enough that he didn’t seem to notice – or perhaps didn’t care – as Anthony sidled up to him until the Viscount cleared his throat. “Colin,” he began.
“Yes. What is it, Anthony?”
“You’re not – courting, are you? Miss Featherington?” He’d already been surprised by his brother’s romantic and impulsive nature once. He’d prefer to at least have a little warning if it was about to strike again.

Summary
"You are a flower ready to bloom, Miss Featherington."
After the events of last season, Penelope is throwing herself into writing Lady Whistledown. The only thing that stands in her way is her meddlesome family. The best way to escape from them? Why, getting married, of course. When Lady Danbury offers to mentor Penelope, she begins her quest to turn from simple wallflower, to blossoming rose... or at the very least, a daisy.
Colin was finding out the hard way that this flower had thorns.
Returning home for the social season, Colin is feeling, well, rather despondent. His best friend did not return a single one of his letters, and now she is referring to him as Mr. Bridgerton. When he realizes that Penelope's desire is to find a husband this year, Colin is determined to work his way back into her good graces, through helping instruct her in the ways of wooing.
"We will turn you into the loveliest, most enchanting flower the ton has ever seen."
But what happens when these secret lessons to find Penelope love work perhaps a little too well? And on the very last person they intended: Colin himself?

Summary
“Perhaps you should take a seat,” said Violet.
Colin wouldn't remember the details of what his mother told him next. He would remember her hand warm on his knee, her eyes wide with concern, her voice gentle as velvet. All of it in stark contrast to the devastating news she shared.
Penelope was ruined.
