    Summary

    "It’s a quarter past seven on the 23rd of December, and the hotel Colin took them to looks so much like the fucking Christmasland in The Nightmare Before Christmas, they might as well have been pulled into a tiny little door shaped like a tree. And it’s fitting, really, because Penelope is living inside her personal little Christmas nightmare."

    Summary

    When Colin Bridgerton returns to London for a social media sabbatical, Penelope suggests that he crash with her for the duration, however long it might be. Sure, she's been in love with him forever, and sure she has a full-time job, and sure she's a secret romance writer and nobody knows it, but she's really good at hiding things, so it should be fine, right? But when she also suggests that he work with her publisher, all of the secrets she's been so carefully tending start creeping into the light.

    Summary

    She told him to be quiet, and she told him to be still, but he can feel every curve of her body and it’s driving him mad, and her perfume is making him dizzy, and his chest hurts, and his throat burns, and he just needs to say it

    “Please don’t marry him,” he whispers, “it will kill me if you marry him."

    OR five times Colin tries to sabotage Penelope’s proposal, and the one time it works.
