Becoming Mrs. Colin Bridgerton by beeandquill

Summary
Penelope Featherington never believed in coincidences — everything happens for a reason. At twelve years old, her bonnet slipped from her hair, and that bothersome yellow hat led her to meet the love of her life: Colin Bridgerton.
For four years, she has endured being seen by the third Bridgerton son as nothing more than a friend. That didn’t bother her — not until Colin turned his eyes toward Marina Thompson.
The disastrous and failed engagement between Colin and Marina sparked an unexpected reaction: debutantes began to feel both pity — and attraction — for Colin. That alone enrages Penelope in ways she cannot quite explain. Suddenly, it seems every woman in the Ton wants to be with him. Why? Now they all want to comfort sweet Colin? She won’t tolerate it.
Penelope hasn’t forgotten the pain, the bitterness, or the burning rage she felt when she learned of that engagement. It’s a feeling she never wants to experience again. And she will do whatever it takes to ensure no other debutante steals the love of her life. She will not allow anyone — anyone but her — to become Mrs. Colin Bridgerton.

Summary
Penelope has spent half of her life alone in love with Colin Bridgerton. In an unexpected development, she finds herself falling into a friends with benefits relationship with his brother, Benedict.
When the entire Bridgerton family gathers at Aubrey Hall for Christmas, Penelope included, she finds herself caught up in trying to keep her encounters with Benedict hidden from the family, preventing her feelings for Colin from spilling over, and making it through the holiday with some semblance of dignity.
--
The guest room in Aubrey Hall was familiar to Penelope at this point. When she was younger, she’d share with Eloise every time they visited. She was always her plus one. After they graduated secondary school, Violet made a big deal about her having her own room for their annual summer visits and any other holidays Penelope joined for.
Moving around the room unpacking her items with a familiar cadence, she paused when she reached her toiletry bag. The box of condoms she’d hastily stashed in there stared back at her. Why had she packed them? This was absurd. She swore to herself she wouldn’t need them. That it was a family holiday and she was going to behave herself, not rouse suspicion.

Summary
As the remnants of what was left of his cruel nightmare began to filter through his conscious mind, Reginald whipped his head lightening fast to the other side of his bed where his exhausted wife lay lost to her own dreams, a faint unhealthy flush across her cheeks.
The cool moon light shone through their window and sheer curtains, across their bed and over Penelope’s slumbering form.Penelope was sick.
He could not, would not, have a repeat of their wedding day, the day he almost lost her for good. The day that angels must have been in her room, with hands outstretched, waiting for her will to live to falter for just a moment so they might take her so much further than Reginald could reach.

Not necessarily a season three retelling, but more of a "Fife is super into Pen and decided to shoot his shot after season two" so I guess it counts for '2025 Rare Pair Week' for Sunday even though I'm late to the party on this one. And there is also a sick!Pen
