    Summary

    When Eloise announces she wants to move again, it coincides with Colin's desire to purchase a London flat. It makes sense for them to move in with him financially, but Eloise takes some convincing and as Colin and Penelope work together to persuade her, they fall back into a closer friendship. Meanwhile, Penelope's casual work hook-up starts pushing for something more but her dormant teenage crush on Colin has come back in full force. Still, she has to be realistic, right?

    But when Colin makes her an interesting offer, it has the potential to change everything. It also might burn everything down. She won't know until she tries.

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    At four-and-forty, Colin Bridgerton found himself wanting more from life than travel. Something steady. Something that lasted.

    What he didn’t expect was to propose to a freshly debuted girl—Penelope Featherington—in a desperate bid to salvage her reputation.

    Who cared about a twenty-seven-year age gap, anyway?
    Apparently, Colin did.

    Summary

    "You — you bind other people?" Penelope blurts out, forgetting herself. Then her cheeks redden. "Sir," she adds, her heart pounding.

    Mr Bridgerton's brow creases and he looks down at his leg, at the rope wound about his large fingers.

    "Yes, Penelope. The feeling is like none other. I am able to… well." He clears his throat and his back straightens. He has never said so many words to her all at once, Penelope realises. "The rope allows one to forget one's troubles for a few moments."

    Penelope does not think before she says:

    "I am yours to command, sir."
