Summary
“I want you to try to wrap your arms around me and drag me to the bed like he did,” she stated, firmly.
“I’m not doing that.”
“How will I figure out how to get away?”
“You can…” Colin searched for an answer, “take self defense lessons. Or get a bat to keep in here! But you’re also tiny, Pen… So that’s why it’s important that your mum knows now that he shouldn’t be here!”
“Lessons cost money, and it would be a stranger! A bat could do little if I can’t get to it, Colin,” she said his name scoldingly, “It’s great my mum knows, sure. But I need to know I can get away!”
“I’ll pay for lessons,” he offered.
“I want to do this now! Come at me,” she demanded.
“No!”
She stomped her little foot and yelled up at him, “I said, ‘now’, goddamnit!”
***OR***
After 5 years Penelope comes back into the Bridgerton’s lives, but she’s changed. The confident, feisty, young woman she’d fought hard to be is hidden under a silent, careful, compliant ruse. Can the love of the Bridgertons and some self defense lessons with Colin bring her back and undo the damage caused by her long-term ex boyfriend?

Summary
A slow-burn canon twist starting from the first time Colin notices Debling noticing Penelope, setting off a lot of feelings he realizes were always trying to dig their way out of his denial. Pen is courting with the eye to marry well and keep her career, Colin is in love so big it is only dwarfed by the accompanying trouble, and Debling is not the only rival suitor. Lots of inclusion of Featherington and Bridgerton family members as the spectacle becomes a debacle with the goal of a wedding. WIP, not always that serious, and sometimes smutty/angsty.

Summary
Beyond unmarriageable, Penelope Featherington has taken to her role as a countryside spinster. Never does she wish to return to a life of gossip rags and royal regalia. But when tragedy befalls her family, she must return to London for the first time in almost six years.
It is a simple plan: settle the affairs of her newly-widowed sister, and return Derbyshire in a blink. But any savvy young lady knows - there is nothing simple about matters of the heart.
