Summary
Colin Bridgerton is a rather popular travel influencer on Instagram and contributor to GQ magazine. He goes home for the holidays to visit his family after a particularly long stretch abroad. Somehow, he ends up going on an all-expenses paid trip to a little slice of heaven in the Caribbean with his best friend, Penelope Featherington. He’s not used to traveling with another person, but he finds himself rather looking forward to the time away with her even if he’s not sure what to expect. He expects it will all go according to plan. What could possibly go wrong when embarking on a trip with your best friend after all?
Penelope works in a junior position at a publishing house in London, scraping her way financially through young adulthood. She’s also doing her best to get over her decade plus long infatuation with her best friend Eloise Bridgerton’s older brother Colin. Somehow, she finds herself agreeing to accompany him on a trip to Turks and Caicos after the Christmas holiday. She doesn’t know how she’ll manage it, but Penelope is determined to ensure this trip goes smoothly and that she doesn’t let her heart get ahead of her brain. She and Colin will never be together romantically. Not in a million years.

While investigating Debling Shipping, a front for criminal activity, Penelope loses an important lead and must find a new way in. Cue Colin Bridgerton, who she met and kissed at an undercover training program two years prior. Professionally, of course. She learns Colin has been putting his training to good use, embedded for a year with Fife, a criminal middle man, and his crew, gathering intel on several criminal organizations, including Debling Shipping.

Summary
“Perhaps it was the promise I made, perhaps it was an incantation, a prayer of a dying man's last words which were her name. But I had to get back to her, our bond transcended the natural realms, from death I came still in search of my bride. I had pledged myself to her and even hades had to respect that tie.
Penelope, I breathe her name”
The polin x Frankenstein story that has been plaguing my thoughts for months

Summary
“Having a nice time, even after you were so reluctant to join us?” Fife asked, not even glancing Colin’s way.
“Well enough,” Colin said, and he meant it. There was something enjoyable about watching one’s friends fawn over women well out of their league. And the dancing was quite entertaining for his own benefit, too.
“You might like this next act,” Fife said with a knowing, mischievous grin. “I’ve seen her before. She’s quite something.”
“This is a high-quality sort of place,” Colin retorted, trying not to roll his eyes. “They’re all quite something.”
The first upbeat notes of “Maneater” by Nelly Furtado began to play over the speakers. “Just watch,” Fife directed, his smile widening.

When Colin goes out for a stag night at a strip club, the last person he ever expects is up on the stage.
He's angry.
And turned on.
