Summary
"There—there has to be something we can do," she stammers, placing her hand on his chest. "A doctor? Can we get you to a doctor?"
"A doctor cannot fix this," he says, grabbing her wrist and trying to back away from her. "I have spoken to one prior. I have listened to the men at the shipyard talk about my ailment…this is the only way and I do not wish to—"
"Use me."
His eyes go wide.
Did she…did she just say that?The one where Colin Bridgerton is exposed to a mysterious illness and he has to fuck or die.

Summary
Anthony glanced at his brother, who had been uncharacteristically stationed along the wall of the ballroom for the entire night. Well, it would have been uncharacteristic if he hadn’t done the same for the last two balls. Not dancing, not talking to anyone – Colin’s eyes were fixed unerringly on one target as she moved around the room.
His concentration was intense enough that he didn’t seem to notice – or perhaps didn’t care – as Anthony sidled up to him until the Viscount cleared his throat. “Colin,” he began.
“Yes. What is it, Anthony?”
“You’re not – courting, are you? Miss Featherington?” He’d already been surprised by his brother’s romantic and impulsive nature once. He’d prefer to at least have a little warning if it was about to strike again.

Summary
After a night of wonder under flowers and fireworks, Penelope Featherington thought she was on top of the world. Things seemed to go perfectly for once in her life. Until she overhears a conversation she was never meant to hear. And for the first time in her life Penelope truly feels completely alone in the world. Penelope must look inside herself and decide once and for all if she will continue her usual wallflower ways or if it's time for her to step into the spotlight and claim the life she has always dreamed of having.
Colin Bridgerton was, in his own estimation, perfectly happy being single. He enjoyed the occasional dance with a beautiful debutante and his charming ways lead him to be quite a flirt. However he knew deep down it meant nothing. He was not in search of a wife, in fact he wasn't even ready to entertain the idea of finding one. He did however find himself involved in a rather deep and genuine friendship with one, Miss Penelope Featherington. But when his own foolish remarks threaten to ruin there relationship forever, he must decide whether he can let her go or if there is maybe something he hadn't seen in her before.

Summary
An enormous planet had dropped into the space between Earth and the sun, an unexpected eclipse that might upend the spheres of the universe in the park that day. If Penelope was pretty little Venus, her husband was gas giant Jupiter looming behind her. The man had a rather casual one-handed hold of a baby boy on his right side, the child like Jupiter’s moon Ganymede. They were unmistakably father and son, as they had an identical possessive posture. The boy was even crossing his arms like he was holding back violent acts in defense of his mother.
Alfred would swear he was a touch taller than Colin Bridgerton, but that might have been an impression made when the younger man was slouching his disapproval of any chivalry toward Penelope. He had seemed almost ill at points, as if he was malingering with a terrible sickness that was bound to take him to an early grave. It turned out to be easily cured with Penelope’s consideration of his suit. Alfred was not pleased for them, exactly, though he could appreciate that the lady wanted a love match and had it in an unanticipated closeness. A proper wedding, a home together and a son had not mellowed Colin.
