Summary
Hawkins, Indiana is a graveyard that doesn't know it's dead yet.
Two days since the gates opened. Two days since the earthquakes. Two days of watching their town become something else- something wrong, something hungry, something that bleeds red lightning and tastes like ash.
The military says they're establishing a perimeter. What they mean is: you're on your own.
Steve Harrington has always been good at protecting people. It' basically his only skill at this point- that and hitting things with a nail bat. But there are too many people, too many monsters, and not enough time before Hawkins becomes a tomb. With Robin refusing to leave his side, Dustin refusing to follow orders, and an apocalypse that won't wait for anyone to be ready, Steve has to figure out what happens when the world doesn't end all at once.
It ends in pieces. One person, one choice, one sacrifice at a time.

Summary
Set shortly after the end of Season 2 (before the epilogue)
When Penelope rejects Colin's offer of a dance, he does not understand what he can have done to upset her. As he attempts to make it up to her, it is clear Pen is only interested in reconciling with Eloise.
When Colin chases the two girls into a lightning storm, he did not expect a strike of lightning to take their troubles into the year 2022.
Together, they must work with a female scientist called Ava to find their way back home. But while Colin flounders in the future world, he is only too aware how well Penelope and Eloise are thriving.

Summary
Colin opens his hands for her. And she, the biggest fool the world has ever seen, takes it.
They rise and rise and rise until she is holding his cheek. Much like how he cradled her that night.
He talks of feelings and thoughts and dreams and it’s entirely devastating and amazing all at once. Her heart soars and stays in the clouds with the angels, but there are chains on her leg. There are rings around her neck. There is one on her finger.
The weight of everything crashes into her like a witless bird. She crumbles and shatters and breaks all in one tragic tale.
Poor Penelope Featherington, they would solemnly utter. Loved too late.
(or, the one where the heart and the mind will always be at odds with one another, especially when dowager countess penelope debling finds herself involved with london's notorious gentleman murderer by virtue of lady whistledown, and colin bridgerton, freshly retired from his five-year tour of gallivanting around the continent, inexplicably insists to be a part of something infinitely bigger than they.)

Summary
Penelope woke up alone. Alone and in her childhood bedroom. For the third day in a row. Her hand slid down to her lower abdomen. The life that was supposed to be fluttering there did not exist yet and neither did the beautiful children that she had already given birth to.
She had three days to accept that something had happened that had sent her back to just before her first season. She wished she had more time, but with having to wake up every day in the wrong house, the wrong bed, without her husband and children—Penelope had to accept that her current present was her new reality.
No matter how often she cried every morning, hours before Rae came to get her ready for the day.

Summary
"Colin Bridgerton would never dream of courting me," Penelope laughed behind her fan, ignorant to the very man hovering behind the shrubbery behind her, and even less aware of the way his heart shuddered in his chest. "Not even in your wildest fantasies, Lady Cowper."
Colin gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to storm in there and shake the infuriating woman, the same woman who he, apparently, had been courting for the entire season and yet had no idea of his feelings for her.
Bloody hell.
***
Everyone knew that the spinster lady of the Featherington barony had no intentions of marrying and similarly, no man had any intention of marrying her.
So why, pray tell, was the newest Bridgerton bachelor chasing after her skirts like she was some pretty little chit?

Summary
He missed her.
God, this is worse than a break up. He would have laughed at himself if he wasn’t so fucking sad.
It was like Robin had taken half his soul with him when she’d stormed out of their apartment two Saturdays ago. Like she’d packed her duffle, snagged her jacket off of the counter, and ripped his arms off on her way out the door. He didn’t feel like a whole person anymore.
One of their coworkers at the coffee shop had called them ‘unhealthily codependent’ once. Steve thought he understood what they’d meant now.
or
Steve and Robin have a fight they both should have seen coming.

Summary
Robin comes to a slow halt at an overlook on the pier, her hands coming to grip the wooden rail as she looks out at all the sailboats on the blue water. Steve stops behind her and hooks his chin over her shoulder as he pokes her in the side.
“Love you,” he says, planting an overly dramatic kiss on her cheek.
“God, Harrington, when did you become such a sap?” Robin asks him, and Steve lightly kicks her ankle even though he knows she’s joking.
“Shut up.”
