    Summary

    It's been six months since Penelope last had sex with her husband Alfred. It's been four since they stopped trying to conjure any passion, and two since he stopped holding her at all.

    Out of options, they seek out help from an unusual source.

    Just who is Colin Bridgerton anyway?

    Summary

    Colin is three days into the worst heatwave south-east England had ever seen, that ripe, delicious, irresistible Omega scent sending his Alpha slowly insane, Aubrey Hall is Hell on Earth.

    And it’s all Penelope Featherington’s fault.

    Her and her fucking boyfriend.

    Summary

    It’s hard to have walls and boundaries with a girl like Penelope. She radiates warmth and acceptance, nurtures the misfits and puts up with more than her fair share of shitty behaviour from the bitchy girls in their Lit 101 class who can’t understand why a slightly chubbier girl has such magnetism.

    Frankly, Sophie wants to bury her face in those painfully perfect tits of hers and see what she looks like coming on her favourite strap.

    Except Penelope’s already got a girlfriend.

    And therein lies the problem.

    Summary

    Seeing his wife in one little pirate costume has Colin Bridgerton weak at the knees and ready to surrender his life in service to his Pirate Queen.

    He can imagine her on the bow of a ship, the wind whipping her hair as she leads a band of ne’er-do-wells to riches untold. Knowing Penelope as he does, she’d outsmart her enemies before raising a lick of blood, not wanting to stain her blade.

    Luckily - in his case at least - she shows mercy.

    Well, that is until she doesn't.

    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton’s lame duck of a marriage had been over years before his wife walked out the door and into the bed of some unlucky bastard or other. Really, calling it quits was a decision they’d made for the best. Both he and Marina knew that; even their three-year-old twins knew that.

    There was just one last tiny little problem he was having trouble with now that he was, for all intents and purposes, single again.

    And, well, it was starting to send him round the bend.

    AKA another age gap forbidden fruit story.

    Summary

    Easter break had found an appropriate set of circumstances to set the party up. Anthony Bridgerton was on his extra-long honeymoon, while Violet had taken the two youngest Bridgertons to visit Fran in Scotland, leaving an actual living, breathing mansion in the middle of London damn near empty to throw the biggest party Mayfair had ever seen. Really, when the most responsible adult in residence was Benedict Bridgerton, it was a bit of a no-brainer to throw a giant rager.

    Still, though, she thought playing Spin the Bottle was a bit much.

    Summary

    Of all the Bridgertons to work directly under, Colin Bridgerton was the best Penelope could’ve hoped for. He was handsome, flirty but respectful, kept his private life out of her hair and seemed to be kind, appreciative and understanding as a boss.

    And still she wanted him to screw her brains out every time he so much as grinned at her.

    Maybe the damn book was to blame in part for that particular fantasy.

    Summary

    His handsome face twists into that sickly smile, only now she has no fear. Now there is only longing, the rope too tight to be unknotted.

    Penelope has known forever that she was born for Colin Bridgerton.

    At last, she knows why.

    Summary

    All of this is going to end up in disaster, probably.

    Since when does a decades-long friendship actually survive being fuck buddies? The end’s getting nearer, and Penelope's clinging on with both hands, addicted to the rush. They’re at risk of ruining everything for the taste of something incredible.

    Summary

    Penelope loved weddings to a fault.

     

    She loved the drama and the mess of them all, the stolen moments between the happy couple nobody normally got to see. She'd simply been happy to be asked to be a bridesmaid, to take a place next to Daphne’s own three sisters as if she was family in all but name, watching Colin beam across the chapel at her with promise in his eyes.

     

    Thank God Daph hadn’t chosen yellow for the dresses.

     

    A modern Polin AU on what happens when two nerds start gossiping at a posh wedding reception late into the night.

    Summary

    There lay in Penelope a sickness, or so she had been told.

    A very specific kind that only this physician, as he called himself, could potentially be willing to alleviate for her, if there were any hope at all. At least that was what the flyer had said.

    A gentleman by the name of Mr Bridgerton had developed a technique of stimulatory effect to relieve the sufferings of women. Of sharp tongues and short tempers gone in a few months or less, within three sessions with his special apparatus.

    Summary

    It was in the small moments that Colin first noticed his wife’s continued predilection to sometimes avoid looking at herself in the mirror, as if Penelope could still not quite see the sparkle in every facet of the diamond that was her beauty.

    It was time, Colin rather thought, to re-educate her.

    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton was an Alpha in the highest of society. He had everything at hand: means, popularity, charm and good looks in abundance, and the name to go along with it. What he did not possess was a Mate, nor any brutish tendencies towards claiming one, as some Alphas tended to do. In fact, every Omega he had ever countenanced all seemed quite ordinary and plain to him.

    That is, until something rather interesting emerges. Or, rather, someone interesting emerges.

    And soon he discovers that Penelope Featherington is not the woman he exactly thought her to be.

    Summary

    He’d been burying his feelings for Penelope, that much he knew; though if anyone asked him when things had changed, Colin wouldn’t have been able to say.

    It wasn’t until he had submitted his last article that he felt like this weight had been lifted from his shoulders. Colin had immediately booked a flight home to London from the hostel in Italy, and his body and mind finally felt in sync. He was ready to be what she deserved, to give her all of him.

    Except, then that party happened.

    She's not.

    It doesn't seem to matter anyway.
