Bridgerton Lumber Mill by hippiechick7897 for lwp

Summary
Colin Bridgerton works as a lumberjack in the family mill and has a steadfast determination with winning over Penelope Featherington, who works in the office.
She is a friend of the Bridgertons, that he has known nearly all his life, and is close with everyone in his family...except him, for reasons he does not understand.
They used be so close - as close as Penelope and Eloise were - more so at times. Now she was...civil…some of the time. The more distant and further she pushes herself away from him, the more he misses her and yearns for...something he didn't know he was lacking.
Sweaty, flannelled Lumberjack Colin with a beard! Nuff’ said!
Not enough said? Icy Pen, friends to enemies to lovers, sweet marshmallow Colin. Pining. Smut. Wayyyy more damn smut than intended thanks to Polin Week.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton is the smug head of Bridgerton Publishing. Penelope Featherington is the bestselling author who once called him “an overpriced bookmark in a suit.” Their public feud is legendary—fueled by sharp tweets, literary panels turned battlegrounds, and one very compromising limo incident outside the Publisher’s Book Awards.
What starts as professional rivalry turns into something a lot messier (and a lot more romantic), unfolding across live tweets, poetry books, post-it notes, and accidental proposals.
Enemies to lovers?
No.
Enemies to viral scandal to emotional chaos to “my wife, my nemesis.”
And the internet never stood a chance.Bookmarked by blacksoulturnedblue

Summary
Penelope Featherington may have only just turned 32 years old, but she’s come to a very important decision in her life. She’s ready to become a mother. She’s got a career that she’s passionate about and is completely financially independent and secure. All that’s missing is the man, but she’s done waiting on love.

Colin Bridgerton, one of her best friends, is entering a bit of a hiatus from his jet-setting career as a travel photographer. He’ll be permanently in place in London for the foreseeable future while, at 35 years old, he tries to figure out what he wants to do with his life. While his intention in finally sitting still for a while had been to work out what his professional goals are going forward, Colin’s quickly becoming fixated on a very different kind of aspiration for himself.

Summary
“We’re friends. I’m happy to do you a favour.”
She really does mean it. There is nothing Penelope wouldn’t do for Colin Bridgerton.
But then he raises his eyebrows, clears his throat, and says, “I was wondering if you might consider letting me fuck you and pretend that I am trying to get you pregnant.” He pauses, pondering before he adds: “Please.”
---
Or, after a series of increasingly unhinged sex dreams, Colin asks Penelope if he can roleplay getting her pregnant. Platonically, of course. That should get it out of his system.

Summary
Penelope Featherington has been trying to get over her crush on her best friend Colin Bridgerton for the last several years. It should be pretty easy to do considering he spends the vast majority of his time away from London and in far off corners of the world as part of his travel writing and social media enterprises. He’s never around and she only sees him a couple of times a year at most. However, it turns out her problem in being unable to get over him has nothing to do with how often she spends time with him in-person. Her problem is the telephone.
--
Or, the one where Penelope and Colin start having phone sex as “friends.”
