    Summary

    Penelope Featherington may have only just turned 32 years old, but she’s come to a very important decision in her life. She’s ready to become a mother. She’s got a career that she’s passionate about and is completely financially independent and secure. All that’s missing is the man, but she’s done waiting on love. It’s time for Penelope to take matters into her own hands and do what she’s always done in her life—make her own dreams come true.

    Colin Bridgerton, one of her best friends, is entering a bit of a hiatus from his jet-setting career as a travel photographer. He’ll be permanently in place in London for the foreseeable future while, at 35 years old, he tries to figure out what he wants to do with his life. While his intention in finally sitting still for a while had been to work out what his professional goals are going forward, Colin’s quickly becoming fixated on a very different kind of aspiration for himself.

    --

    Or, the one where Penelope and Colin decide to make a baby “as friends.”

    Summary

    After spending years scouring apps and enduring lackluster dates, Penelope is at a dead end in her quest for romance. The Bridgerton family, upon hearing this, concocts a bet to see which sibling can set her up on the best blind date. Penelope accepts, nervous at the prospect of her best friend and lifelong love, Colin, setting her up after coming home permanently from his travels.

    The winner, determined by who Penelope believes her best date to be with, receives the mallet of death for a full year.

    The loser? Potentially the man who didn't realize he was in love with her in the first place.
