After all this time, all the effort she’d spent to try and find him.
“Holy Fuck.”
“Bad word!” Neddy said as Edwina and Mary both stared at her.
“What?” Edwina asked, looking between Kate and the television.
Kate swallowed, the words choking in her throat. “That’s N-E-D-D-Y’s D-A-D.”OR

Summary
Modern Day AU / Enemies to Lovers / NYC Setting
Kate Sharma, co-founder of Chosen & Cherished, a charity that provides mentors to foster children in New York City, is presenting to a philanthropic committee at the Bridgerton Hotel for additional funding. Anthony Bridgerton, heir apparent to an empire of hotels and resorts spanning the globe, is apparently above listening to presentations about foster children. Handsome to the point of distraction? Check. Rude, privileged asshole? Check, check, check. And oh, how Kate *hates* him.

As Anthony carries an unconscious Kate towards a carriage down the road, he can't push away the rush of feelings that flood through him when he thinks of a world in which Kate does not exist.

Summary
Newton dies of old age a few weeks before Christmas in 1822, and Anthony feels Aubrey Hall go strangely still, in a way that he has not for many years.
He feels foolish at first for even thinking it — to compare the losses. But there is something similar in the stillness of mourning, in the agonizing silences that make his palms itch helplessly. There is something about hearing the heartbreaking cries of his second son echo down the hall from the nursery that makes a stone lodge in the pit of his stomach.
It’s familiar, that is why he loathes it so.

Summary
It is terrible luck, really, that the Duchess of Hastings walks in on them at the exact moment that Lord Bridgerton’s lips are but a hair’s breadth from her own. Just a second prior, Kate had learnt the rush of heat as his hands wound needy paths upon her bare skin. It was fascinating really, the way her skin rose up in little goosebumps in response. The way the blood pounded in her throat. The feeling of the floor dropping out from beneath her.
If she had a soulmate, this was exactly how she had imagined she would feel.
