    Summary

    Penelope has absolutely had it. Alfred has finally revealed his true colours. Portia will never change.

    When her friend Rae's backpacking trip to Australia coincides with Penelope's life and relationship falling apart, she decides to take the risk and tag along.

    An unexpected job presents itself and Penelope finds herself working in a pub, surrounded by some very sweaty, very muscly Australian Rules football players. Including one Colin Bridgerton.

    Summary

    Oh God, she could smell him. Everywhere. Why had she not thought of this when he bounded in fresh off the plane and asked if he could move into her flat?

    It had always driven her wild, and it was never a cologne, a soap or a body spray. It was him.

    Salty and warm. Like he'd just come from the beach his skin briny and sun drenched. He'd never been one for splashing on fragrance, deodorant yes, but he'd told her once he spent so long crammed in next to people in planes and on trains that he'd hate to be the one with the overwhelming scent.

    Whatever it was, she felt she was drowning in it some days, brushing by him in the kitchen as he's returning from a run. Warm and rumpled, just out of bed, as they pass each other in the hallway. It made saliva pool in her mouth, made her want to dig her nose into his chest, dip her tongue into the curve of his spine.

    As reluctant as she was, she was going to have to try and ignore it. If they were going to live together, as roommates, she had to.

    Summary

    Well. If this just doesn’t take the biscuit. Just when she thought the night couldn’t get any worse.

    “Are you mad? I would never court Penelope Featherington. Not in your wildest fantasies, Fife!”

    The boy she’s loved since she first laid eyes on him all those years ago, disparaging her for all the Ton to hear. She’d put up with it when he’d implied she did not count as a woman. Helped to free him from a planned entrapment by her own cousin, to her own family's detriment. Accepted that he only saw her as a friend. She had worked very hard on that part.

    Penelope is a lady. She does not curse. But this is a step too damn far.

    In one night she’s discovered her cousin Jack has been fleecing the Ton and has chosen to run, leaving the Featheringtons ruined and practically destitute. Her best friend Eloise has discovered that she is Lady Whistledown, declared them no longer friends and ravaged her bedroom. They had fought so viciously, words spoken in the heat of the moment, explanations and apologies ignored.

    Any other night she would have fled in tears at Colin’s words. But tonight? After all this? She is fuming.

    Summary

    Penelope wakes up Saturday morning with her head absolutely buzzing, she's expected to be hungover but this is a new side effect.

    Burying her head under her pillow, she realises that the buzzing is not from her hangover but its her phone, endless notifications blowing it up. Instagram notifications? Why would she have so many Instagram notifications?

    Penelope vaguely remembers snapping a series of pictures of her, Edwina and Genevieve going wild on the dance floor at the club last night but she wouldn't usually post them to Instagram. God, hopefully she hasn't posted a stray tit or something.

    The number times Colin has been tagged is astounding, it looks as though the post is blowing up. Penelope has no idea how they've even found her post, she rarely has him on her page and never tags him. He does have a few unhinged super fans, maybe they have alerts set up for her posts?

    Jesus, poor Colin. What the fuck has she posted?
