    Summary

    To an observer, Colin and Penelope were nothing more than frosty acquaintances.

    That did not stop Penelope from lingering in the Bridgerton family wing, however.

    “Took you long enough,” Colin mumbled in Penelope’s ear as he dragged her down the hall towards his room. Penelope could hear her heart pound in her ears as she submitted to him.

    -

    Three years after calling off their engagement, Colin is back in town for the new social season. How much longer can Penelope continue to deny him?

    Summary

    Hot water fills the tub, steam curling through the air, his gaze following the wisps and tendrils swirling around him that remind him of russet curls spilling over a porcelain shoulder. He takes a rattling breath and his navy eyes settle on the mirror in front of him, swiping his palm through the condensation, to his reflection. Who he sees is not Colin Bridgerton, the third born son of Violet and Edmund Bridgerton, but the purposeless, wandering bane of his brother Anthony's existence and the object of all his ire. “Goddamn it!” he roars, yanking his tie from his neck. “Alexa. Play Taylor Swift Christmases When You Were Mine." The lyrics soak into his soul as he softly starts singing along.

    Summary

    December 2018 and especially its last day were not shining moments in the life of Penelope Featherington. Finding your boyfriend of six months with his tongue down another girl's throat cannot be called the best end of the year. Even worse when the girl in question was your ex bully.
    But as spring 2019 came, everything was perking up - her buddy from study exchange, Gen, hosted her for winter break in Provence, El took her back to be a roommate after the disaster with Mr Douchebag and she already wrote three chapters of her debut novel…
    No wonder life decided to remind her about its thorny side on May 20th with help of Facebook.

     

    And we're back! Now let's see the pov of our heroine…

    Summary

    A modern AU in London, where friends Colin and Penelope find themselves almost living together more often then they do apart. Recently updated to only include the canon of one specific AU that started with "Truth in the Throws." Since this one grew a plot unexpectedly, I'll list the stories in chronological order, with the caveat that some chapters do have flashbacks framed within the 'now' of the story.
