Summary
Alex downs his drink and orders another quickly. He’s early. He spent the afternoon in a four hour meeting and then his boss told him to go home and that he could finish the paperwork tomorrow. Which isn’t weird or new, but Alex sort of wishes he had an excuse not to be here.
It’s just that his mom asked. And he’s never been able to say no to her. Even when he doesn’t fucking understand her choices.
She’d never been to England, and yet she ended up with a British soulmate.

Summary
After Penelope confided in Colin that she was still a virgin at twenty four, he propositioned her for one great night together so she could finally overcome a hurdle that she felt had been holding her back. The idea of a week at Aubrey Hall turned into a complicated chain of events as Colin found himself suddenly grappling with his feelings for his best friend whose virginity he just took.
-
“You think you’ll regret losing your virginity to me?”
Summoning up as much courage as the moment called for, Penelope took a few steps forward.
“No. I’m worried that I won’t.”
Colin reached out for her. She saw him coming and still didn’t believe it when he placed his hands on her waist. She looked up at him, her light blue eyes shining in disbelief. His thumbs dug into her sides, massaging in soft circles.
“Kiss me, Pen.”

Summary
During Penelope's ovulation window, she finds herself a bit worked up at sibling pub night, and can't stop herself from all the dirty thoughts she has about her fiancé. When her resolve finally snaps, she desperately pulls Colin away from the family, and hopes to get the one thing she's craving more than anything in the world.
--
Penelope couldn’t have cared less that they were in a hallway. She moaned loudly as his lips left a blistering kiss on her pulse point.
“So this is what you needed?” he mumbled as he nipped at her earlobe.
“Colin” she begged, her hands trailing up his back, grabbing at his shoulders. “I need you.”
“You have me, love.” He pulled back to look at her, one of his hands coming up to cup her cheek.
“No, I… I need you to fuck me.”
His eyes went wide. “Pen–”
“Right now. In the loo when whoever is in there comes out.”
Colin laughed as he grabbed her face between his hands. “You can’t be serious.”

Summary
Penelope Featherington is on holiday celebrating her birthday with one of her best friends in literal paradise. All of these things should add up to her spending the week with a beaming smile plastered on her face and having the absolute time of her life. Instead, though, she starts off the trip fixated on the milestone-nature of this particular birthday and one life milestone that she wishes she’d already checked off by this point. Quietly resigned to ringing in her birthday in a few days’ time without making any further progress, Penelope is entirely unprepared for a very helpful offer from her best friend who just also happens to be the person she’d spent years previously hopelessly crushing on.
--
Or, the one where Colin takes Penelope’s virginity “as a friend.”

Summary
Colin had asked her to take his virginity.
Not lose it with her, like throwing it in the bottom of the closet with the old school shirts unworn for years, or like a treasured bracelet, adored until it falls off one day never to be seen again. Take. Like it was his to give and hers to claim. Like she could cherish it.
And she’d said yes.

Benedict scoffed before crossing his arms. “You know what? I wish Penelope was here instead of you. I know she’d listen, even if it’s just because she can’t resist gossip.”
Can’t resist gossip.
A smile slowly started to spread over Colin’s face and he quickly scooped up his phone.
It was brilliant.
Penelope was strong but everyone knew she had one weakness.

After Penelope stopped talking to Colin, he quickly realized two things: 1. He was in love with her and 2. He would do anything to get her to talk to him again. Even if that means exploiting his siblings' secrets to prey on Penelope's biggest weakness.
