Summary
When Penelope wakes, blearily, she shifts to her opposite side in the uncomfortable hospital bed.
She sees him there, in the same place he has been for the last several days, from the moment she first awoke.
The man they say is her husband.
She knows this man; she has known him nearly her whole life.
But she does not know Colin Bridgerton as her husband.
An accident steals five years of Penelope's memory, leaving her baffled and confused as she tries to adjust to the life that is, apparently, hers—a life she had once dreamed of, no less. Colin is Colin, taking care of her every need, but maintaining a careful distance that has her wondering how he fell in love with her in the first place. But as they navigate the strange new world they find themselves in, and as bits and pieces of Penelope's memory return, she learns how it feels to be truly and wholly loved by Colin Bridgerton.
And how it feels to be betrayed by him.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton is excited for his book release party hosted by Danbury Publishing. He can’t wait for his best friend Penelope Featherington to arrive. There is only one tiny problem. She gets trapped in the freight lift with his past paramours or what could have beens.
All the ladies who left him or chose not to date him because of her. Including her cousin Marina Thompson.
While listening to them complain about Penelope, Colin can no longer hide that he has been in love with his best friend for much longer than he was willing to admit.

Summary
Everyone knows Benedict Bridgerton never picks a fight, especially with pretty ladies. But there is something special about Penelope Featherington, which makes him want to keep picking little fights with the little author.
She is no less, sparing no chance to tease him.
Instead of charming her, the artist always ends up offending her one way or another. Penelope also has a habit of misunderstanding him at every instance. So, it’s not all his fault.
Yet, it's impossible to resist her.
One way or another, he is bound to find a way to have her under him. Or on top of him. Everyone knows he is ‘flexible.’

Summary
Eyewitnesses say that HRH Princess Penelope and Colin Bridgerton, younger brother of the current Viscount Bridgerton, have been spotted repeatedly together across campus this term. Onlookers say there is definitely a royal romance brewing.
Penelope scoffs as she texts back to her private secretary, Rae. Early on, she fought the need for a private secretary at all, and certainly doesn’t need one at Cambridge, but has found that it does actually make her life easier on the rare account she has to mingle with the rest of her family or partake in royal events. In this instance, Rae jumps in and assures Penelope that the Buckingham Palace press team is on it.
Penelope: there’s no story here
Penelope: old friend’s older brother. casual chat. studying across the table. ran into him in a coffee shop and didn’t even speak. he was on a date with someone else.
---

Summary
Colin discovers his mother has agreed to let Penelope clean the pool at Aubrey Hall for some extra pocket money the summer before her first term at uni.
He can be perfectly normal about this. He’s not a horny disaster about it. Nope, not one bit.
