Summary
The room was dim, the windows shuttered tight against the outside world. A single desk lamp cast long shadows across the worn wooden table, where two cups of untouched tea had long since gone cold.
“Do you understand the assignment?” came the voice across from him, low, clipped, and final.
Colin didn’t blink. “Yes, sir.”
The man nodded once. “Good. You leave in a week’s time.”
~~~
During World War II, Colin Bridgerton is deployed as a British spy. While his family and Penelope Featherington are left in the dark, only Anthony knows the truth and receives Colin’s coded updates every month until one month, the dispatch never comes. No one knows what has happened, devastating his family and leaving Penelope heartbroken. Will Colin return home and if so will he be the same?

Summary
In which Colin Bridgerton plans to give an intimate gift to his wife, causes a commotion in an unlikely place, inadvertently becomes a relationship expert, and proves himself to be a very naughty husband.
Let it be known that Madame Delacroix is a Polin shipper, and Lady Whistledown will shamelessly use her power to showcase Colin as the hot husband that he is.
Husbands of the ton, it is time to show your wives a little lovin’, because that Bridgerton man and his wife cannot keep their hands off each other.
That’s it. That’s the whole story.

Summary
“I wish we truly were sisters,” Hyacinth murmured dreamily.
“Oh, I should like that very much as well,” Felicity laughed, “though I suspect Gregory would not share our enthusiasm.”
“If we were sisters…” Hyacinth murmured, thinking aloud, “perhaps it might truly be possible.”
Felicity watched Hyacinth’s thoughts race ahead of her, eyes bright with sudden purpose. “Oh no, no—absolutely not.”
“I still have unmarried brothers.”
“I will not marry Gregory just so we may be sisters!” Felicity exclaimed.
“Ugh, no,” Hyacinth said with a shudder. “I was thinking of another Featherington.”
“Pen?”
“Penelope, mm-hmm,” Hyacinth nodded, a wide smile spreading across her face.
Felicity stared at her as though she had quite lost her senses. Hyacinth leaned closer. “Listen, close your eyes and imagine it. Penelope becoming a Bridgerton. You and I spending entire weekends in their new home. The holidays, the celebrations, everything, together. You and I, sisters.”Or: How Felicity and Hyacinth attempt to become real sisters, accidentally drive Colin mad with jealousy, and unleash his most chaotic Era yet.

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.

Summary

A year later, in the house across the Square from his childhood home, he has found more purpose than most do in a lifetime.
He is grateful for all of it. Joyful, disbelieving at his own luck, and endlessly grateful.
But it is quite a lot to balance, now. He wonders often if he is truly up to the task.
_____

Just because an initial love story gets a happy ending does not mean everything comes easily. There is work to maintain that HEA. Happy work. Work that is worth it. But still: WORK.

The Seduction Conundrum by ArtistiqueReader12

Summary
How could she play with Colin’s heart? How dare she try to make a fool out of someone who only ever sought to help, who had had nothing but the purest of intentions when he approached her at the ball to save her from the old lord? How in the devil’s name was Portia supporting the falsehood of a courtship that Marina was weaving? What gave her the right? Why could Marina do it and not her?
That last thought gave her pause, the cogs in her mind turning as her front teeth dug almost painfully into her bottom lip. Truly… If Marina could attempt to entrap Colin, then... why couldn’t Penelope do the same?
