    Summary

    Ten years ago, Mayfair buried a girl it never truly saw.

    Miss Penelope Featherington—spinster, wallflower, quiet witness—vanished one fog-draped morning near the Brighton cliffs. No farewell. No body. Only a satchel of relics: a locket, a fan, a scrap of yellow muslin stiff with salt and something darker. Her mother’s scream that day did not echo—it shattered, and in its wake, the ton fell to its knees in guilt too late to matter. Lady Whistledown, in a final, funereal column, declared Penelope dead and vanished herself, leaving society to stew in the silence of its own cruelty. The Queen anointed her “The Royal Wallflower.” The Bridgertons set a place for her at every birthday dinner. And Mayfair, for a decade, learned to breathe around the hollow where her kindness used to be.

    Then, without warning, the columns returned.

    And then— she arrived.

     

    or

    Lady Whistledown comes back for revenge and Penelope Featherington hides in not so plain sight.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington asked for a kiss—and left behind a letter.

    Meant for Colin Bridgerton, it held a message of unspoken love and one final goodbye. But with her suicide attempt and the truth landing in Colin’s hands, everything changes.

    Now, Colin will do anything to make her stay—even if it means scandal, sleepless nights, and proving to the woman he never saw clearly that she’s the only choice he’ll ever make.

     

    “He kissed her too late. Now he’ll spend every day making sure she stays.”

    Summary

    What if, instead of falling for, and marrying Daphne, Simon instead fell for our favourite red-headed wallflower. How will this change affect their stories?

    This is a rare pairing, do NOT read if you only want to read polin, because you will be severely disappointed.

    Summary

    Simon Basset swore to his dying father that he would never marry and never sire an heir, but when fate places Penelope Featherington in his arms, he finds that he cannot say NO. This long fic (210K and counting) is the story of how two people with their own hurts, ghosts, and traumas make the most of their circumstances and find happiness.

    The Bridgerton family is featured heavily with lots of domestic fluff and support for the new couple. Simon and Anthony are as close as brothers and work through their father issues together, while Penelope has a sisterly relationship with all of the Bridgerton siblings. Lady Danbury and Lady Violet guide and mentor their adopted children.

    This is a RARE PAIR story with FIVE characters marrying differently from their canon spouses. Canon divergent from episode one. It's a fun ride if you're down for the adventure.
