Summary
While travelling back to Aubrey Hall for Christmas, Colin Bridgerton finds himself caught in a major snowstorm. His driver manages to get him to the nearest safe dry building, which just so happens to be the Featherington country estate. Penelope meanwhile has been left home alone for a couple of days – her mother had gone to visit a friend before the festive period – and suddenly finds herself host to a single man, her friend’s brother and the boy she’s had a crush on forever. As the storm rages on, bringing England to a standstill, it becomes clear that Colin and Penelope are going to have to put up with each other until the weather clears.

Summary
“I can sleep out here—you should take our bed,” she offered.
“I would not dream of it,” he replied stiffly.
She shifted uneasily, fingers twisting together. “But the settee is small and you are—"
“It is not befitting of a lady of your station,” he bit out, unsure why she would not cease.
“But—"
“Truly, Penelope, I will not hear of it.”
Post 3x07: Strained by betrayal and the aching distance between them, Colin spends the first week of their marriage torn between anger and an unyielding love he can’t ignore. Their unresolved tension comes to a head during a confrontation over the settee. As their heartbreak unfolds, Colin must decide how to honor his feelings while taking the first steps toward healing what feels irrevocably shattered.
