Summary
“Anthony?” His voice was hoarse and raw, betraying his disbelief and shock.
Now, Colin wasn’t a man to lose his temper easily. He was proud to say he had learned to hold himself back quite well without it blowing up. And yet, the moment his eldest brother turned around, the silly scar he had near his left eyebrow from the time he had fallen from a tree lifting up to his forehead, his eyes wide, his smile quickly turning into a confused frown, Colin Bridgerton threw a punch.______
The Bridgertons were told war had taken Anthony from them forever. Miles and miles away, a man was found almost dead at the Sharma family property with no recollection of who he was.
When Colin comes face-to-face with someone that could only be a ghost from his past, Anthony Sharma knows his quiet country life is about to be turned upside down.
But will the family he has no memory of even recognize who he is now?- Language:

Summary
Later - much later - Anthony Bridgerton would look back at the moment he’d met Kate Sharma, and it would be clear that this was when his life had divided in two. There would always be, from that time onwards, before and after.
It was unfortunate, then, that he was also delusional enough to think he could purge his obsession.
—
or: Kate Sharma has just one objective for the Season: marry well enough to save her family. She’s determined to ignore her attraction for Lord Bridgerton, for everyone knows he has no plans to wed soon. Except, vexingly, he cannot seem to stay away from her.

Summary
Edmund suffers an accident and is paralyzed. Newly arrived in England with her family, Kate accepts a position as his caretaker.
She loves the Bridgertons dearly and feels a father's care from Edmund. It is a shame their eldest son, Anthony, is hell bent on questioning her every decision - even though he has never met her. And now he is arriving at Aubrey Hall for the entire summer.

you take issue with my requirements? by chrkrose

Summary
Kate reaches for her reticule, withdrawing a small leather-bound notebook. "I have compiled a list of my own"
“A list of gentlemen?” Lady Danbury's voice climbs an octave
“Of requirements. For a husband, that is”.
“And what, pray, are the 'requirements' you seek in this hypothetical husband?”
Kate looks at the notebook in her hands.
“Tolerable. Dutiful. Decent manners. Steady enough income to support a small household. No gambling debts or illegitimate children. Not a brute in private. And ideally,” she says, lifting her eyes to meet Lady Danbury’s, “he must have the ability to hold a conversation without being a complete bore”. She finishes. At Lady Danbury’s silence, Kate shifts once more in her seat. Then adds: “That last part is not so much a requirement, but a preference.”
_____________________________
When The Sheffields withdraw their offer to provide Edwina’s dowry, Kate realizes she has no other option but to enter the marriage mart. For purely practical reasons.
